Fleetwood Town (H) Tue 21st Nov, 7.45pm

[79walsall]

Flanaghan on for arguably our best player, Ismail.

Greeted by boos and Whitney out chants.

Flanagan!!!!!, Christ what DOES Whitney see in this bloke?

Hes ginger ?

[Soton Saddler]

That reaction to Flanagan coming on... hardly going to inspire confidence in the lad.
Think Whitney needs to go as the atmosphere is too hostile. He'll never get the crowd back.

Come on you Saddlers!

[Ancient Moaner]

As it stands currently (I thought a winning situation couldn't last) we are just 3 points off bottom but one place! :evil:

[saddlersjse]

Stays as 2-2 and he'll have his excuse.

Lose with a home attendance of just 3,000 and it's gonna be interesting.

[EvenFlow]

Just remember folks - he’s here to develop the youngsters so it’ll all be ok in the end!

Even that's a bit of a stretch, in Flanagan's case- he's 23, so more of a bloke who hasn't played many games, albeit for various reasons, than a youngster.

Clearly audible on commentary.
Mick Kearns can't understand substitution and 'doesn't agree with it'.

Sums the situ up

[BathSaddler]

3225 ( 82 from Fleetwood)

That must be down there with one of our lowest league attendances for some time?

One of our stato’s will confirm I’m sure....

The lowest since 3,173 see us beat Bournemouth 3-1 in January or February 2013. The match was nearly postponed due to heavy snow just before kick off. Before that, 3,006 to see us end one of Dean Smith's long winless runs against Colchester in December 2012.

I meant in general to be honest - at 23 though he’s a youngster c9mpared to some of us (me included)....

Thanks for the clarification - doesn’t bode well for JW (have we said that before!!!) :roll:

[Welsh_Saddler]

Walsall's 2nd substitution, on 81 minutes. Hardly enough time left to work up a sweat....... (Agyei replaces Oztumer)

..... and on 88 minutes, we go 3-2 ahead !!!!!!!!

[Eccentric_Viewer]

Ooh err....

[Exile]

2-2 at home, both goal scorers substituted, neither injured. Ok...

[saddla]

[coop63]

Jeff will be giving h8m a new contract in the morning :mrgreen:

[Welsh_Saddler]

Walsall's third substitution, on 91 minutes. Play for time lads........ :wink: (Donnellan on for Lobster)

[BathSaddler]

3-2! :) What a charmed life he doth lead..

4-2! I'm stunned :shock:

[79walsall]

oh look 2 strikers both score start them both saturday !!

[Ancient Moaner]

I need to go to a darkened room, BBC says it is now 4 yes 4444444444 -2 to Walsall!!!!

We are back, but gobshite will still be in charge shite!!!!!!!

[saddla]

Genius subs by Whitney :wink:

[coop63]

Talk about mixed emotions!!!!

[Ancient Moaner]

oh look 2 strikers both score start them both saturday !!

Nah, strikers that actually SCORE goals are of no use in a team that plays in Whitneyland!

[Soton Saddler]

4 - 2.

Wonder If the Saddler fans giving grief to Whitney for the subs have got a few apologies in them. Flanagan has played well by the sounds of it and we've scored twice since.
Gillingham result sounded harsh should be 6 from 6 points.

I'm not saying Whitney is the blooming messiah, but maybe he doesn't deserve as much stick as he's getting (why is it so volatile..).
The long and the short of it is with such low support it is perhaps time for him to go unfortunately.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Sheffield Utd also scored 4 at home. Problem was that Fulham scored 5 !!! :lol:

Could it be that the grief motivated the team to step up a gear?

It was 2-5 at one point so the Blades have staged an impressive comeback!
