Manager Roy Keane says midfielder Reggie Lambe will be allowed to join up with the Bermuda U23 squad over the Christmas period. The Bermudian youngsters are set to take on Trinidad’s U23s in a series of home friendlies.
Keane says the organisation of the matches has been suspiciously timed: "They’ve been well planned those games over the Christmas period! Reggie’s going to get some games and may be at home for a few days as well. I think Reggie’s organised them!
"I’ve never stopped and never will stop my players going away to represent their countries and, as I say, the games have fallen into place nicely, with the sun on his back.
"With no reserve matches Reggie would have been given time off to go home anyway, just like a lot of our young lads and I’m sure Reggie will get one or two days off between the games.”
The 18-year-old, who made his first and so far only Town appearance at Shrewsbury in the Carling Cup earlier in the season, spent time with a Bermuda U23 training camp in May and has won nine full caps, scoring all four of his international goals in a Digicel Cup match against St Martin in August 2008.
