SKY SPORTS NEWS: "Don't worry Yeovil fans, Walsall have already dropped 5 points from winning positions this season."

Sheff utd dropped 3

Half-time, 1-1 - at least we've had nobody sent off, and no bookings either :D

Can we have whatever Port Fail are on? 4-0 up at half-time :o

Hurst off for Nicholls? Is Hurst injured or is Deano working his magic?

Hurst has an injury, shoulder I think.
Saddlers Player now working! We've come out quickly and had a couple of chances already.

Attendance 4,247

Possession according to the BBC.... Walsall 38% Yeovil Town 62% :shock:

(and as a sideline, Warwickshire need 308 to beat Hampshire, with a day and a bit to do it....)

Whoopie do! :roll: :wink:

Bound to change the game dramatically. This is the issue we have - nothing really on the bench to change a game when we need it.

Agree to an extent, but Nicholls was brought on for the whole of the second half, and that was about all we had in the so-called goalscoring options on the bench. I guess Jarvis will at least give us a reasonably fresh pair of legs to support the efforts of Grigg and Nicholls.

89th minute - Butler booked :roll: :roll: :roll:

Just saw this. 1-1 at home to these is poor in my opinion. These are the sorts of sides we should be beating at home.

BBC site reckons we've had 7 shots on target. How have we only scored once! Kinda highlights the point.

Maybe Tuesday night's loss took more out of the players than we thought. Agree, we should be beating these at home.

I have been saying it since pre-season - we need another striker because the three we have at the moment are completely paceless.

And for all the work we are supposedly doing defensively with Chris Nicholl etc, we keep on conceding and letting leads slip.

Sounded very flat, if we're serious about finishing in the top half of the table we need players who can change the dynamics of a game. Like Ledesma! (although I doubt we'll get someone of that quality!!)

Home draw perhaps not the best result, oh well.
