"It tops it off when we are picking up a few performances along the way and I have only good things to say about the club."

As to his longer-term future and the prospect of a permanent move to the Owls, he added: "You never say never in football.

"Obviously, I am still with Preston and have a few years there, but football is a mad sport and there is no reason why it couldn't happen.

"I will take every day as it comes and see what the future holds at the end of the season."
