Last updated : 23 October 2003 By Dave Hawkes
Southampton defender Chris Baird has agreed to stay at Bescot Stadium for another month after putting in some impressive performances for Colin Lee's side since signing on-loan at the end of September.

Baird is facing a one-game ban for his sending-off at Sunderland and he could miss the home league game against Norwich and will make a decision whether to overturn the red-card on October 30th.

Speaking to the official Saddlers web-site Lee said: "I am delighted that we have been allowed to extend his stay and hopefully all parties concerned will benefit from the arrangement in the month ahead."
