Ball bouncing around on edge of his area, he comes running out the 18 yards to get it, while Clayton McDonald heads in back to where he should be, only for it to just skim past the post.


Did you see the Dingles' first goal at Burnley? Mears and Jensen in a similar cock-up to the one that you describe - so it happens in the Premier League, too! :lol:

11 games left 11 points clear ,after Colchester the next 5 games 3 away 2 home are against the current bottom 5 teams.

Why does that worry me , i reckon we are not safe yet.

We're not safe, especially as we are playing proper drivel football.

I dont think we will be relegated, but we should still be looking over our shoulders.

Apathy Rules!!!

I really really couldnt be bothered about this - where as in previous seasons I would of been at Orient yesterday, in fact since around Christmas time the only reason I have gone to home games is that I have a season ticket. There is something about Hutchings and MOC that reminds you of your favourite film, the more times you watch it the less you can recall why it is that you rated it as your favourite in the first place?????

Countless saturdays have been spent watching the same predictable outcome that has neither an ounce of entertainment or pleasure where the only fun element is watching dancing Kev and Swifty dancing......... nothing eminates on the pitch anymore - in fact its the football or lack of that ruins a good day out these days. Im bored bored bored..... yet I still love the Saddlers and will never jump ship, I want our club back!!!!!!!

Like your avatar, 1966. That's never Jan Sorensen, top left, is it? If so, when was the picture taken?

Their are no photos of Big Fat Jan, I think he was a vampire!

I agree with the above poster! Playing teams that are in the bottom 5 scares the bejesus out of me! They will be fighting for their lifes at a high tempo, and we'll......well we'll be the masters of our own downfall as usual

Yes, I know - but it should have been Big Fat Jan to make the sequence correct (and preceded by Chris Nicholl, after Hibbitt)

Good touch from them.

I must admit though, I was quite impressed with the stewards Saturday. I asked one where we go to get in and he told us with a smile and a "have a good afternoon and enjoy the game"

Shame we all don't get that everywhere.
