Lewes manager Kevin Keehan has two injury worries ahead of Saturday's trip to Field Mill.

Skipper Danny Cullip is a doubt because of a back strain, although Keehan is more hopeful that Stefan Cox can shrug off a niggling calf injury.

Anthony Barness returns after a one match suspension and David Wheeler will be named in the squad despite playing for England Schools on Thursday night in Boston.

The Rooks go into the match facing the prospect of a defeat adding to their current tally of 12 consecutive league losses on the trot.

Lewes have only scored twice in 2009 but Josh Klein-Davies will be hoping to add to this tally with his loan spell from Bristol Rovers due to conclude in the next few days, although Keehan is still hopeful of securing the services of another striker.

Under 18 keeper Jake Buss or Chris Winterton are likely to have a place on the bench as an injury that No 2 keeper Dean Ruddy picked up in the Reserves defeat against QPR in the week looks to have ended his season.

Seb Wallis-Tayler will play no further part in the season as the Rooks try to avoid relegation, since his contract was cancelled and he has now returned to Bognor. Meanwhile, long term injured Steve Elliott has joined Hastings United in an effort to gain match fitness as he seeks to end his spell on the sidelines since October.
