RICHIE Appleby hopes Kidderminster Harriers are not forced into too many more changes over the coming weeks.

The midfielder, who has started three games in a row, believes injury problems across the squad have played a major part in their disappointing start to the Coca-Cola League Two season.

Appleby said: "I think the gaffer has only been able to name the same team once all season.

"There are a lot of good players at the club but it doesn't help when someone is injured. It means you have to change the formation, tactics and players."

Harriers face a trip to Southend this Saturday.
