Crikey and thrice crikey....the last time that happened at home was for the Man Utd game in January....probably....the last time we lost at home....oh no, woe are we....
Adkins rarely puts a right back on the bench as he has Cork who can fill in there if needs be during a game. As such, if the squad rotation policy is deployed for the right back position it is likely the incumbent right back will drop out of the match day squad altogether rather than drop to the bench.
So may just be a simple case of squad rotation rather than an injury.
There again....perhaps not
@jordansibley: So that's 2 changes from the side that drew with Reading. Lallana comes straight back in for Connolly, Butterfield for Richardson #saintsfc
