BRENTFORD boss Andy Scott is running the rule over two keepers in an effort to replace Ben Hamer.

Scott has enquired about Everton shot-stopper John Ruddy, touted as a future England keeper when the Toffees snapped him up from Cambridge United four years ago.

And he has been casting his eye in training over Craig Holloway, a former Arsenal junior who has also kept goal for Farnborough, Southend and Ebbsfleet.

The 24-year-old spent last season with Blue Square South side Braintree Town.

With Simon Brown believed to be stalling on a new contract, Hamer (pictured) back at Reading and Seb Brown released, Scott currently has no first-team keepers.
