Crystal Palace caretaker boss Keith Millen could still be in charge for the weekend's game with Hull City.
Palace's search for a new manager is now into its 28th day.
"I must admit I was a little bit in limbo this weekend about what to do or think," said Millen.
"I ended up doing things around the house and the garden. But I spoke to the chairman on Sunday lunchtime and he said to prepare and start thinking about the Hull game."
