We have 38 points from 17 games, haven't conceded at home and have a goal difference of +21, which only Manchester United can equal in the country.
Four more wins and we'll be safe, by the way!
I'll give you a reason, Neil. Not everyone who attends Walsall FC games will be a hardcore Walsall fan, with the results in mind.
Okay, It's a damn good reason to play poorly and win, Walsall do need to rise in the leagues and then in the long run attendances and probably performances will improve.
Don't assume that everyone is in your way of thinking though. I'd rather watch Walsall lose entertainingly than to win in a boring match. That is me, and nothing to do with anyone else who is bound to disagree with me.
To be honest with you Sid, I think that more people think the way you do but are either unwilling or scared to say so. It is a bit like the emporers new clothes isn't it.
I suppose everyone (me included) will be over the moon that we are where we are and acknowledge that things are so much better than last season, but really the football at home is poor isn't it. The worry is that the football away is a great deal worse.
I know I should count our blessings and look on the bright side but how long can we keep playing this way before someone realises the emporer is naked and makes a fool of us.
