4-0 to the Saddlers with 2 goals from Fryatt (1 pen), Leitao (1), Bennett (1). A third win in a row moves us into ninth with an outside chance of making the play-offs.


Sorry that must have slipped through from Hull Saddler in one of the parallel universes where we did not get rid of our crown jewels.

There's been no news about Gerrard being injured. It would have taken balls from KB to totally drop him if he's fit!

Looks to me like 4-4-2 with Pead, Fox, Westwood, Roper at the back, Mills, Leary, Osborne and Keates getting in each other's way in central midfield, and two up front. Maybe Ishmel for one of the midfielders might have made more sense?

According to the BBC website, one of the Bournemouth substitutes is " K. Broadhurst ".........

Hayter's penalty miss has obviously inspired him, because he's just scored.

Walsall 0 Bournemouth 1..... 17 minutes.

SaddlersWorld is working perfectly fine, must be your PC...

My brother is convinced its a back 5 (not a back 3) and says they look like they've never ever played together before in their life.

Roper playing like a pub player, another stone wall penalty given away, thankfully Oakes rescued us.

However the defence then contrived to give another one away when as predicted, Steve Fletcher opens the scoring. Completely unmarked and never picked up by anyone.

Someone has just missed an absolute sitter for us.

Well at the moment it sounds like the whole thing is basically gone, players bickering, Pead and Fox getting roasted, goal down, missed a sitter, and only Oakes penalty save keeping us in it.
Things can only get better.

I listening to Bournemouth radio, and good Lord are they taking the mick. They are in hysterics over how bad we are.

They have used the words 'wreck' and 'shambles'

"Walsall are by far & away the worst side I've seen this season". Slander surely

The Walsall commentery is back up thank God, but it doesn't sound any better!! If Gilmartin was in goal I think this would be about 5-0 by now, oh the Walsall commentators have just called us a shambles as well, so I think its safe to say we are. The first pathetic "shouldn't have sacked Merson" text has just landed. And people wonder why we are where we are.

Let's be honest, we are down if we lose tonight. We might as well chuck Timm and Ishy on and at least have a go, if we get beat 4-0 it doesn't matter, 5 at the back is achieving what exactly?

I have switched off my phone and not listening to any commentary - it is just too depressing!

We are playing with 7 basically defensive outfield players. Of the 3 attackers one is 40, and another is a non-leaguer, over to you Michael (loanee) Leary!!

45 minutes to save our season.

Words fail me. This club is in real trouble, and I'm not just talking about relegation. We are in freefall in every way. Crowds getting lower and lower, no Coach worthy of the name [what exactly does Kinsella do?],an owner who has completely lost it [and who we rely upon for our very existence] and absolutely no money, as what we have had has been wasted by the very person that some fans WANT BACK. Jeez.

KB must recognise that this must be done. If there are no halftime changes then I despair.

At least now got Walsall commentary
