THIS GAME HAS BEEN CALLED OFF DUE TO A WATERLOGGED PITCH.
SAINTS are set to send a strong looking line-up for their friendly at Swinton on Sunday.

Ian’s squad will be chosen from:
Aaron Smith, Alex Walmsley, Calvin Wellington, Dave Llewellyn, Greg Richards, Jack Ashworth, Jake Spedding, Joe Greenwood, Jonah Cunningham, Levi Nzoungou, Luke Thompson, Mark Percival, Matthew Costello, Matty Dawson, Matty Lees, Mikus Ozols, Morgan Knowles, Olly Davies, Regan Grace, Ricky Bailey, Rob Fairclough, Ross McCauley, Tom Connick, Tommy Hughes, Tommy Makinson.
Talbot said: “It’s the first run out for our new ‘reserve’ team and is what’s needed to give the maximum playing opportunities to all players at the club.
“Sunday’s team will feature a mix of experienced first team players looking to add some extra vital match fitness going into the season, some young full time players who are hoping to impress, some new additions and trialists, and some young academy lads who will want to make the most of the opportunity.
“I’m sure it will be a good game with Swinton as they prepare for their new season in the championship.”
The game will kick off at 3pm at Sedgley Park on Sunday.
Price of entry is £12 adults, £6 concessions and juniors free.
