Stepped in for his teammate 

Lancaster have swooped to sign the youngster following an injury to his Blackburn teammate Aidan Dowling, who is currently on loan with them until January.

Goddard took his place between the sticks yesterday and is due to spend this week with the Northern Premier League outfit before his stay expires on 18th December.

Career to date

The teenager was born in Frankfurt, Germany, but started his career on the books at Manchester City.

He then moved to Blackburn in September last year and has since been a regular for the Championship side at Under-18s level.

This is the first time he has been out of loan and the experience of exposure to senior football will help his development.
