Half-time and we're nil-nil, up against 10 men. Any suggestions as to how we can score? I'm sure that if we get one goal others will follow, so what should be the plan? Do we throw Bakayoko on, or Makris, (or both???)

Over to you, JW :wink:

Would be a real shame to draw after seeing all the shots we have had in the first half. Oldham looked like a good side at the start, but was before the sending off. Now we are dominating play but can't seem to get a goal in :?

Oldham just hit the upright with a free kick, it's all gonna go tits up, I can see it coming..........................

Is Jackson actually on the pitch? I have not seen his name mentioned once on the BBC stats, seemingly a waste of space of late, lets give Makris a chance for once. :?

Yeah its coming, any time now..............?

Walsall's first yellow card, 59 minutes (Etheridge ... not for time-wasting, surely?)

OK, an hour gone ... surely time for some fresh legs/ideas ???

The betting exchanges now have the draw as clear favourite ... how embarrassing!

Season is fizzling out.

As I've said above, lets give Makris a chance, Jackson is just a number on the pitch currently.................

We're gonna lose it 1-0, can see it coming a mile off.........................

Whitney painfully slow with the subs again....surely you don't need all the defensive players against 10 men.

Baka on....get Markis and Moussa on aswell.

A striker on for a defensive player at 0-0 isn't an obvious change?

Yes, but replace a waste of space with a useless lump? We HAVE to get a striker in for next season otherwise our gates will drop below 3K guaranteed.............. (spoke too soon we have a penalty?)

Why do I get the distinct feeling that we are desperately holding on against 9 men? :shock:

Our 2nd yellow card was shown to Bakayoko.

Substitution - MAKRIS on for Jackson, 83 minutes
