Kenny Arthur will miss tomorrow's crunch game with Bournemouth.

Rochdale goalkeeper Kenny Arthur has been ruled out of tomorrow's top of the table clash at Bournemouth.

With reserve stopper Matt Edwards already out with a fractured wrist, Keith Hill was granted an emergency loan to sign another goalkeeper after Arthur broke down with an injury late yesterday afternoon.

Dale have signed 22-year old former Grismby and Notts County keeper Josh Lillis for a week and he will make the long journey south with the rest of the squad today.

Arthur had played everyone minute of Dale's season so far, his commanding displays making him a hit with the Spotland faithful.
