2-0 Walsall, Standing

He was Ref for our horror showing in the LDV vans trophy last season against Cheltenham... :shock:

Not a good omen eh! :roll: :cry:

[WSOne]

Gerrard starts, 2-0.

Gerrard misses out, 5-8.

After last Saturday I know playing Staunton won't go down too well with our fans but with Fox doubtful and Bennett definitely out, Staunton (if fit hiimself) is our only recognised left sided defender. I know Kris Taylor has played there (incluuding Monday) but would rather see him in midfield - especially if no Standing (or else means Smith and/or Wrack back!!!)

Best hope is Oakes in goal, Westwood, Gerrard and Staunton as back 3, Pead and Taylor as wing backs, Ossie, Standing/Wrack/Broad/ & Wright in the middle, front 2 Jorge and Fryatt (as it looks like he's stopping now).

With that formation - Walsall win by 2 clear goals. Anything else - struggle for a draw.

BTW Think Smith will come good at some point - but needs time in reserves before coming straight into team.

[Andy W Taylor]

That last one was me on a different PC to usual!

[Magic Man Fan]

Staunton is our for a couple of weeks I think Andy.

I think he'll stick with 3 at the back even if they're all right footed. Roper, Westwood and Gerrard.

Hopefully we'll get back on the winning track. 1-0, Leitao to score.

[Geordiesaddler]

The way Merson was talking it sounds more likely Fox will be fit rather than Staunton. If Staunton has had a week on the sidelines I dread to think how slow he would be come Saturday. I really hope the "first choice" back 4 is fit so they can start a game together and prove themselves. On thing that interests me about this game is that Swindon allegedly play 4-5-1 away from home, so I dread to think how congested the midfield could become, or how overun our midfield could be if Smith, Wrack, and Merson are all in it. Intriguing stuff. Can't remember the last time we lost at home to Swindon, infact I don't think I can ever remember us losing at home to them.

2-0 to us on Saturday. Goals for Osborn (I keep saying it, so eventually I must be right!) and Fryatt (now he can put the demons to bed and get back on with his job).

April 19 1969 Walsall 0 Swindon 2 - last home defeat to the men from Wiltshire

[Lukeyboy]

walsall 2 - 0 swindon town. goalscorers - Matty Fryatt, Mark Wright

[zlaty]

2-2 guaranteed should be a good crowd though with 2 for a tenner deal on the tickets.

[Pelsall_Saddler]

Walsall 6 - 2 Swindon (First score that came to mind!)

[railwayender]

soz but cant make it sat due to 1pm ko dont get in from work till 1 ./1.30 but will be cheering u on in my red n white heart.its time we gid some one a tonking so 4-0.

[ucow]

i think a close hard fought game with us just coming out on top 2-1

[Geordiesaddler]

I suppose in the best traditions of mister Ravenscroft, I should now say "match preview now on the front page".

[derbysaddler]

Im still bothered about our defence going walkies at vital times. I think swindon can grab a couple against us. But we can probably get past their defence. Lots of goals.

4-2 to the saddlers. ( please)

[WFC_Rob]

They haven't scored away from home & we haven't conceded at home so something's gotta give!
3-1 to us, Fryatt (2) & Standing.

[KJC]

..... & we haven't conceded at home so something's gotta give!......

Did I dream about the Swansea game then?

If I remember rightly, I think we've conceded 9 goals already on home soil!

[Salford_Saddler]

Well Swindon are not prolific scorers away from home so far this season which would tempt me into believing it could be our 2nd clean sheet of the season.
Yet being a walsall fan i realise that wont happen and we will get the game where they realise where the goal is. With Gerrard and Westy at the back im feeling
more confident about keeping the goals down so i predict:

Walsall 3 (Westwood, Taylor, Wright )
Swindon 1 (smith)

[Stonnall_Saddler]

3-0 Saddlers, Leitao, Fryatt and Merse

[sid swifty]

Well ive had us to win on the coupon at work,but the way things have been going i think
swindon will score first but we will win 3-2 westwood,fryatt 2 (1 pen).
come on you super saddlers :lol:
