Richardson back for Sunderland

Caretaker Sunderland boss Ricky Sbragia will be boosted by the return of Kieran Richardson for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League clash with West Brom.

The 24-year-old midfielder missed last weekend’s 1-0 defeat at former club Manchester United through suspension after reaching five bookings for the season, and his place was taken by veteran Dwight Yorke.
