Where do we draw the line? Many of you would have seen this week a tweet from Neil Etheridge basically calling out a fan for suggesting they would 'cheer' had they seen the incident that lead to him taking an injury this week. I tracked a lot of the different reactions from players, ex-players and more … Continue reading Saddlers on Social Media
He's done it! It's been a long time coming but we finally got to celebrate a Makris goal and it was a strike worthy of the wait. A lovely cross field ball was nodded down perfectly by Edwards and the Cypriot took a touch to control and another to volley into the roof of the … Continue reading HE’S FINALLY DONE IT
Another home win for Bradford, hardly unexpected. We could have played our best football of the season at Valley Parade Saturday and still come away with a loss. Bradford have truly turned their home ground into a fortress and have not lost a league home game all season, so coming away empty handed probably hasn't … Continue reading Lackluster
It's finally over! The international break has finished and we can start looking forward to domestic football once more. Last week I wrote BUSY MONTH AHEAD -PART 1 on the first three games of April, so today I will be focusing on the final four games of next month. My views and opinions will no … Continue reading BUSY MONTH AHEAD – PART 2
Seven games are all that remain now for the Saddlers. An accumulation of some very exciting games in April will see the Saddlers take on three local sides, including away days at Shrewsbury and Coventry. With nothing to play for next month I am going to try and take an optimistic look at April and … Continue reading Busy Month Ahead -Part 1
In quite possibly the most Walsall way possible any final flicker of hope for the season dies as the Saddlers throw away a 2 goal lead in the final 30 minutes at Southend to come away empty handed. A few fans had commented heading into the game that it was time to think about next … Continue reading Shrimpers end our season
There's lots of things to be annoyed about in that game, but the result is not one of them. When you don't test the opposition keeper at all in 90 minutes, how on earth are you expected to come away with a point, let alone 3. Fleetwood were everything Walsall needed to be in this … Continue reading Frustrated by Fleetwood
I wrote a few weeks ago about the Magic 73, a detailed breakdown of how much we needed to push on in the final weeks to secure 6th place this season. With an ever pessimistic outlook I concluded that I felt the season may have faded away already. Since then, the Saddlers climbed to 8th place … Continue reading Has that T.Watt ended our season?
What a run. The saddlers find themselves heading into Charlton on Saturday having secured back to back wins this week at the Bescott, completing a run of 6 wins in 6 at home. Whilst I unfortunately couldn't make it Tuesday night, the highlights and proceeding interviews seem to suggest it was the most comfortable of … Continue reading 6 On The Spin
Added time is always an exciting period when the game is at deadlock. As 7 minutes were raised the roar from the fans that accompanied it told the players everything they needed about what we expected from them, boy did they deliver... If you'd only watched the highlights you could say that the Posh were unlucky not to … Continue reading 7 Minutes in Heaven
