Biography

Goalkeeper Steve Lewis played for the Norwich City schoolboys earlier in his career. Lewis joined Kings Lynn from Cambridge United in 1991 and made over 250 appearances for the West Norfolk side. He has also won representative honours for Norfolk. As an ex-canary, Steve was in good company at The Walks with teammates Matthew Wright, Glyn Roberts, and manager Tony Spearing . Although Steve was displaced from the King's Lynn side by former Ipswich Town trainee James Hollman, new manager Tony Spearing opted for Lewis above former Mansfield Town player Duncan Roberts whilst Hollman has left the club. Since Spearing's resignation and the appointment of Gary Mills as manager, Lewis' position was challenged by the signing of Moroccan international Chuck Martini from American side Connecticut. Martini was previously on trial with Martin O'Neill's Leicester City having played with him at Wycombe.

After a spell on loan to Warboys, Steve quit Lynn to join Eastern Counties league side Fakenham Town. This was confirmed by the Pink Un (31st October) that reported Steve making his debut for the Ghosts against Histon on Halloween.

In May 2003, Steve moved into management taking on a player-coach role in support to new Fakenham manager Stuart Woodhouse following Neil Jarvis' retirement to support the careers of Canary starlets Ryan and Rossi.

On 12th July 2004, Steve and teammate Martyn Magee signed for Ridgeons League rivals Wroxham. In June 2005, Steve returned to Fakenham as their first team coach.
