Selection headache for Saddlers
Express & Star 24 Mar 10
Walsall were today facing a mounting selection crisis with four key men set to be sidelined by injury or suspension.
Clayton McDonald’s red card in last night’s 3-0 defeat at Southend will net the defender a three match ban – a suspension skipper Mark Hughes is already serving after his dismissal against Colchester on Saturday. Matt Richards limped out at Roots Hall with an ankle injury while Dwayne Mattis is also a massive doubt for the weekend’s trip to Exeter with a reoccurrence of his Achilles problem...

Saddlers: Mattis ‘we fear the axe’

Mattis ‘we fear the axe’
Express & Star 24 Mar 10
Dwayne Mattis today admitted the Walsall squad are living in fear of the axe as they deserve to be dropped after a humiliating defeat at Southend. Mattis skippered the team in the absence of the suspended Mark Hughes and says the players don’t deserve their shirts after an abject performance which left them 12th in League One. He said: “We can’t keep making excuses, it’s not good enough.
The Saddlers slumped to a 3-0 loss at the League One strugglers last night after having Clayton McDonald sent off 10 minutes before half time.

Walsall’s season of two halves
Exile UptheSaddlers 24 Mar 10
Another season is fast disappearing up it’s own backside and we’re well placed for midtable mediocrity, based on average performances. On the face of that’s much better than a relegation challenge, but after a couple of years of standard preseason sound bites from Roy Whalley about promotion, that’s cold comfort indeed...

Same old Walsall, different day and now the Saddlers are out of excuses. There comes a time when you have to hold your hands up and admit you’re not good enough. The benefit of the doubt has been given, perhaps too often this season, but not anymore. To perform like they did against a Southend side wracked with every kind of woe imaginable is unacceptable. The basics were wrong and the commitment missing. It is baffling how they can go from sublime to ridiculous from game to game but yet they still do it...

Walsall midfielder Richard Taundry has warned crisis club Southend are as dangerous as ever and their plight will not stop the players looking to embarrass the Saddlers. The Shrimpers have suffered financial problems this season and have narrowly avoided going into administration. They have escaped three winding up orders and the players have been paid late three times this season...

Darlo Saddler Walsall Web-Fans 23 Mar 10
Saturday’s visit of Colchester followed what’s said to have been yet another insipid, and fruitless, away performance when we visited Leyton Orient so hope for a win against high-flying opponents wasn’t high. Our home record under Hutch is pathetic to say the least – five wins in eighteen league games going into this game – and even when we’ve managed a victory we’ve made our way out of Bescot wondering exactly how we did it...

It’s been yet another very strange week in the life of Walsall Football Club. As if it wasn’t bad enough having to read the comments on 606 from Orient fans that the only reason they won was that we were positively the worst team they have seen down there this season, we then got Troy Deeney’s comments running down other players for not trying. Quite what’s going on is beyond me. There have been lots of positive comments about Deeney from fans, but I just think it is distracting from the real problems at the club – the lack of investment and, quite frankly, the Manager...

All hail Troy’s honesty
Darren Fellows Express & Star 17 Mar 10
Clearly there are different ways of doing things. You can slip out a quiet ‘off the record’ moan with the local hack, you can go a bit more public and drop the hint with a self critical we’re all to blame TV interview or you can now do what Saddlers fans will always understand as ‘doing a Deeney’...

Walsall routed Burton 4-0 as Sam Parkin made a goalscoring return from injury at the Pirelli Stadium on Tuesday night. The striker made his comeback after a month out with a groin problem to net a first half strike before being substituted at the interval as the Saddlers look to ease him in...

Is attacking football really the answer?
Darlo Saddler Walsall Web-Fans 16 Mar 10
A constant topic of conversation among Saddlers fans over the last couple of seasons has been the way in which our home attendances have slumped badly and what the reasons for this phenomenon might be. Several theories have been mooted, from the unpopularity of the current regime to the cost of admission to the largely tedious football we've had to endure. We go to the match in the hope of seeing our team score a few goals with the logical outcome of a victory if all goes well so, if we play attacking, exciting football – remember that? – goals will flow and the stayaway fans will return. It's that simple. Or is it?

Vincent looks to unite the Saddlers
Express & Star 16 Mar 10
Walsall defender Jamie Vincent has moved to unite the team but insists they must take responsibility after Troy Deeney’s public outburst rocked the Saddlers. The 34-year-old, captain while Mark Hughes sits on the bench, believes it is time the Saddlers stood up to be counted...

Express & Star 15 Mar 10
Walsall boss Chris Hutchings today admitted for the first time the play-offs are out of the Saddlers’ reach. The 2-0 defeat at Leyton Orient left them 19 points from League One’s top six in 13th – with just 33 points left to play for. And Hutchings conceded the gap is too big for the Saddlers to bridge...

After a bright start Walsall never looked like finding a way back into the game and failed to muster an attempt on goal after the interval. Two second half strikes from Orient midfielder Sean Thornton helped his side to their first win in eight games to ease their relegation worries...

A sign of the times
Nick Mashiter Express & Star 15 Mar 10
As another season ends prematurely it is merely a sign of the times. After 35 games last season Walsall were 13th on 47 points. This year they are 13th on 44 points. This is where the Saddlers are in the world. They know their own limitations and Chris Hutchings’ acceptance of the play-offs being “along way off” sounds the death knell on the season...

Walsall kissed goodbye to the faintest hopes of a play-off place with a lacklustre performance in East London. The Saddlers were sunk by an unwanted Mother’s Day treat from Thorntons - as Leyton Orient midfielder Sean Thornton hit a second-half brace...
Andy Walker B’ham Mail 15 Mar 10 Andy Walker's big match verdict and player ratings

Disgraceful performance. To call ourselves a professional football team is a joke...
Express & Star 13 Mar 10 Leyton Orient 2 Walsall 0 match report
Sean Thornton’s second half double sunk Walsall as the Saddlers failed to fire at Leyton Orient. The former Premier League midfielder struck twice in 10 minutes to settle a mediocre game which highlighted both sides’ limitations. Despite a bright opening the Saddlers couldn’t conjure a meaningful chance while Orient took their two opportunities – leaving Walsall floundering in mid-table...
