Keehan happy to go with Banks
9:16pm Thursday 3rd July 2008
Lewes boss Kevin Keehan is happy to put his faith in Rikki Banks if his search for another goalkeeper draws a blank.
Keehan had been hoping to sign Chris Winterton to challenge Banks for the No. 1 jersey at the Dripping Pan but the former Albion youngster has joined Eastbourne Borough.
He said: "I am looking at another couple of goalkeepers but I have confidence in Rikki who has done very well in training. If push comes to shove I could get a keeper on loan and one has been mentioned to me."
The loan market is something Keehan would be happy to utilise to bolster his squad. He has already agreed a deal to take James Fraser from Bristol Rovers and there is talk of players coming from Albion.
Keehan said: "I have had a few chats with Micky (Adams) and I am sure he will help if he can but it has got to be mutually beneficial. There are other clubs too who have mentioned players to me."
Meanwhile, Lewes have explained changing the midweek night for games from Wednesday to Tuesday for the new season. The Blue Square premier prefer games on Tuesdays while the reformed reserves will be playing on Wednesdays in the Pontin's Combination League.

Olympics blog: In Beijing
Since the last post time has been flying past and now that we are in Beijing the Olympics (and partying) are our number one focus. We travelled Shanghai to Beijing via overnight train in a sleeper. It was much better than expected - we had a great meal in the buffet and few beers and a nightcap before sleeping soundly. The fare is around 45 quid and we would recommend it to any one.
