According to Daz Hale on WM we are 1-0 down with about 12 mins left

Chadwick is playing & looking really good - hit the woodwork twice.
Ishmel has gone off injured.
Deeney is not playing too good.

Sign Chadwick up before saturday and i will be happy. It would be foolish to play 1 up front against a team that has a very poor defence, you've got to really go for it.

Have WM said how bad this injury to Ishmel is?

Just finished - lost 1-0

Ishmel went off after about 15 mins, that's all I know.

Reporter is going to try to get some feedback both on the Chadwick & Ishmel situations.

Apart from Deeney,Chadwick and Sansara the rest of the players didnt shine at all. We had a midfield that was non existant and a defence that made a lot of errors. The midfield did not create anything worth reporting , most of the time Deeney and Chadwick had to fall back to get the ball themselves.Ishmel was taken off early with a back injury. Deeney had a good game, plenty of running and the best Walsall player on the field. Chadwick also had a reasonable game but little service from midfield. Sansara was the the pick of the defence with Gilmartin only troubled once and that resulted in the only goal. Overall apart from the above no one else did enough in my opinion to warrant a place in the first team squad.
Nick Chadwick played the full 90 minutes so he must be still in the frame for a contract. Maybe he will be playing for us on a non contract basis?

Mullen just been on WM.
He has released Chadwick.

He felt that he was too similar to what we already have in the squad.

He did say though that we had another couple of irons in the fire, and wasn't drawn
when the reporter suggested Gary Breen.

Wasn't very keen on the idea of Breen when he was first mentioned , but after watching Smith on saturday we could do with another centre back

Ishy went off holding his back and walking 'stiffly'. So hopefully, it isn't too serious and he will be ok for saturday.

If Breen comes, he'll be expecting to play at his age - don't like that as a move.

Did anyone point out to the players that losing at home to Vale is simply not an option?

I trust that the guilty will be used as hard core in the foundations of the new billboard. :evil:
