Manager Roy Keane is expected to have a loan goalkeeper before Thursday night's deadline as he continues Wright's exile from the starting XI.

But former Town goalkeeping coach Webster has put his support behind Wright, telling the East Anglian Daily Times: "Richard is up for the fight. He appreciates that he made one or two errors, and he understands why.

"I have no doubts about his ability to step back in and do the job the manager is looking for.

"When he came on loan to Southampton when I was there for the final 10 games of the 2007/08 season he helped to keep the Saints up and did not make a mistake.

"Richard proved his worth to Ipswich last season, and he will come back a better keeper."
