How loud are our away fans? Normally you don't hear anything but very loud on commentary.

1-2 Notts County. My point stands.

Not good enough - Westlake outdone. Conceding after scoring is criminal.

Mick Kearns is losing it I think. he suggests taking Hurst off for Peterlin, putting Peterlin and Taundry in Midfield and playing Chambers in the hole behind the strikers... :shock:

827 Walsall supporters.

Macken booked for dissent at the linesman.

Nearly a third of our home support at an away fixture, not bad, wish team could do better for 'em...watch us equalise
and then lose in the last minute to a goal from sub demontengnac (or whatever his name was!)

To be honest, I think that was a very poor result.

The squad is not good enough. There is no one who can come off the bench to change a game. No depth, no strength.

We need a striker with pace, someone who can create in midfield and another winger at least. Not good enough. I really hope we strengthen.

The commentators even said we are lacking real creativity in midfield. As I, and many others said weeks ago - Taundry and Chambers are too similar. We need someone who can go past someone or pick a pass in attacking areas, and then get in the box.

Strengthen???? With Bonser holding the purse strings? Never. Especially with him looking to depart.

The most disappointing thing about this defeat was to concede so quickly after equalising. However, two successive defeats is not the end of the world, and let's not forget that if we had beaten Sheffield United we would have been third in the table going into the match against Brentford.

We do need to get back on track and beat Oldham on Tuesday. Three points and a loan signing or two please DS!

Early days but the way the table is shaping up, our two wins don't look as impressive now. Strange how teams can lose form so quickly

The next 3 games are all winnable though (Oldham, Scunny at Home, Wycombe away)

Disappointing result but as I wasn't there I can't comment on the performance.

It does seem however that we're desperately short of numbers and at the moment there is no plan 'B'. Although loans are not ideal, we could do with at least three coming in to add some depth to the squad. It seems to me that we have enough 'solid' pro type players (ie they'll give you a shift and work as a team) but need a sprinkle of quality in there - a winger who can beat a man and deliver, a quick forward etc.

Am I the only one that thinks it's long overdue that Jamie Paterson was given a chance? Looked sharp in preseason and seems to get frequent good write-ups for the reserves, yet has only played 8 minutes for the first team since the end of February. Any reason Smith doesn't rate him?

Good support, noisy and a fair few naughty faces which is prob why they shut the bar at half time, think the coppers were gettin worried, need to strenghthen im afraid deano

I think it's a simple answer. He is too lightweight. One gust of wind and he would be flying over the stadium.
