Press Association (BBC) has nothing to report since Coventry's equaliser (29 min) - it's now 3.45pm :roll:

This could easily finish 6-1 if we are lucky.

Must be nice to afford McGoldrick but not pay the rent.

And Moussa, Baker, McSheffrey etc etc.

It's cheating, pure and simple.

We may as well go all out now and attack, nothing to lose.

I'm sure the tactical one will come up with something else though

I was thinking much the same. Just when IS this game and its so called authorities going to force clubs to get their house in order?

It is, but nothing ever gets done about it. I'm tired of Walsall toeing the line with situations like this. What's the point?

There is no incentive to be financially prudent.

They are targeting Taundry and utterly humiliating him.

Pants down, no lube.

If Coventry get another Smith might be forced to bring on our top scorer.

Was hoping that we would somehow fluke 1-1 at half time.
Cov worked out fairly quickly that all they had to do was run at our defence and we would panic at any sign of pace.
Taundry has been dreadful, closely followed by an ill-disciplined Butler.
Paterson caught in possession for their second - nothing new there.
One small ray of hope - they look shaky in defence.

Loaning in goalkeepers has proved a huge success :roll:

We have conceded 42 goals so far this season. How many of them are due to goalkeeper error, and how many to failings in the rest of the team?

Attendance 10,986. After 56 minutes we've had 7 shots, 3 on target. Can't score though :?

Over a thousand Walsall fans, this is how these wasters repay them.

I see we are a third of the way through the 2nd half and no substitutions, so Smith must be happy with the way we are losing. (sorry meant playing).

As well as bringing butler back in after Holden and Downing played very well together at Tranmere.
Its already been said on here that he has been very ill disciplined in this match.
Not quite so captain fantastic in the past couple of months.
