SAINTS skipper Jon Wilkin will miss Friday's trip to Hull after being banned for one match.
Wilkin submitted an early guilty plea to the charge of striking York wing Adam Dent with the arm in the 57th minute of last Friday's cup win.
Had he contested the charge and been found guilty Wilkin would have, in all likliehood, have seen his ban doubled and that would have ruled him out of the Magic game the following week too.
It does leave Saints in a temporary quandary at half back for the trip to Humberside.
