WE MUST WIN THIS ONE.

1-0 Walsall. A superb solo effort from James Constable

Together we can do it.


My thoughts exactly, WE MUST WIN :D

Constable for me, he can score goals, not the best touch and all that (Was Steve Bull a good footballer? NO, but goal after goal after goal :roll: )

Apology for referring to a dingle :oops:

If we're lucky we might get a draw. I can't see a Walsall win on this occasion.

I hope i'm wrong but I don't think this bunch of losers have the correct ingredients to win a game of football --passion/desire/fight etc..so it's a 2-0 reverse for me.
Only joking --8-0 to the rejuvinated saddlers --Claridge all 8.

Been listening to the first half on BBC Bristol, who seem pretty fair in their assessment, to be honest. Does not sound good.We are creating very little and lack pace, as the commentators constantly point out. What is Wright doing on the pitch, let alone at right back? Mills missed a sitter early on with a free header and Constable has a had a couple of weak efforts by the sound of it. As the half wore on we got weaker and weaker.

Crowd very quiet. With the other results going against us, it's looking pretty dire. If we score I will be very surprised. I really hope it looks better than it sounds, but I doubt it.

Listened to the whole match on Saddlerworld... very heartbreaking.

Will be there the next two home games to see if somehow we can get out of this mighty fine mess we're in.

We really are in deep doo-doo.

It sounds like we carried on with the cack performance from last week and got steamrollered.

Why are we so fecking crap?????

From the sound of the commentary, the defence was ineptitude personified. Gerrard had another howler of a performance and remarkably got the man of the match!!! How can you give man of the match to a defnder who was cack in a team that got pasted 3-0???? Roper was pants by the sound of it and the less said about the waste of space that is Wright the better.

Only Oakes came out of this debacle with any credit!!! If it wasn't for him we would have been annhilated.

What a shambolic perfomance!!!

I can now look forward to going to the likes of Rochdale, Bury and Stockport next season. Make no mistake - Walsall are going down!!

I'm so fecking angry I could punch Broadhurst and Bonsor!!!!

0-3!
Mick Kearns ' Lucky to get away with 3-0'
If Swindon have got a point then we are now second from bottom but we have the worst goal difference, so not only have we got to catchup but we have got to score goals.
Am going to Doncaster on easter monday - will we be relegated by the end of that game?
Just cannot believe that it has come to this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are down. And the way the club has been run, we deserve to. The buck stops with Bonser, with considerable help from our former 'media star' manager.
