We spoke to Bit O’ Red defender Lewis Banks this week as he spoke about his season so far and his aims for the rest of the year.

Banks, 22, who joined from Stafford Rangers in February, has been a fan’s favourite this season, impressing from both right and left back, proving his versatility in either position.

Banks: ‘Sligo is quite similar to my hometown. Living with the lads in the house has helped me settle in and get to know them. We go and do stuff together so that helped me’

I still think there is room for improvement from me and the team. We’ve done well in bits but we can improve.

Banks may make his EXTRA.ie FAI Cup debut this Friday night against Glebe North. ‘ Hopefully we put a good run together from now until the end of the season and have a good cup run for ourselves and the supporters, starting at the weekend.
