Lewes cut down by the Poppies
17/3/09
Lewes suffered their fourth successive 1-0 defeat this evening against Kettering Town, which puts them on the brink of relegation.
Caretaker Manager Steve Ibbitson was forced into a late change when Guy Butters suffered a calf injury in the warm-up which saw Chris Breach dropping into defence and Fred Foreman replacing him in midfield.
David Wheeler was rested and started on the bench, with Rhys Henry moving into midfield and Tim Rivers taking on the role of lone marksman.
Kettering took the lead in the 24th minute, when Jean-Paul Marna converted Gareth Seddon's far post cross past keeper Rikki Banks.
Shaun WIlkinson and second-half sub David Wheeler had the best of Lewes' limited chances after the break, but despite the introduction of Ryan Storrie and Andy Wilkinson for their league debuts, Lewes fell to their 16th consecutive league defeat.
Another loss at Barrow on Saturday will confirm Lewes' relegation from the Blue Square Premier in their debut season.
