Barnet midfielder Danny Hart has had his loan deal with Wivenhoe Town extended.
However, manager Paul Fairclough expects to "give him his chance" in the Barnet line-up before the season is out.
The Bees have arranged a return clause in the contract, which means they can recall the teenager if required.
Fairclough has described Hart as a great talent and "one for the future".
Joe Tabiri, who was on the bench at Bradford City last night, is also expected to get a chance before the season is out.
