An unchanged line-up, that'll teach 'em!

But as others have said, there's very little else to come in in the areas that need addressing.

Yep. We've got a 'usable' squad of 14. The rest either aren't good enough, or aren't deemed good enough to be given a chance by the manager.

Personally, I'd have played Grigg tonight instead of Nicholls. If pressure is an issue, he won't have much because of the small following we'll have taken down there. Having said that, pressure shouldn't be an issue - he's represented his country more times than us. :roll:

I agree. Not only should pressure not be an issue due to our small away contingent (bless 'em one and all), but few people expect a decent result tonight. Ideal opportunity to get yer boots on and play a bit.

Ah well.

Not the usual chap? I like the regular fella. Good commentator and likes to get the fans involved. Can tell he loves Walsall too.

Was a clumsy challenge by Lescott on the edge of our own box.

They keep trying to put Brain under pressure, it's only a matter of time until we go a goal down then!

BBC says one on, one off. They don't count hopeful balls floated in and cleared though in those stats.

Brains having quite a few touches of the ball which 2 of their players keep running 30 yards or so to chase down :lol:
He's also been pushed into, resulting in a foul.
Think they know he's a real weakness!

Yer, I was counting the 1 on target. I know hes bad but I dont think blasting it into the stands is a threat to him :lol:

The hopeful crosses thing makes sense though.
