Today I have a better feeling about tomorrow... Walsall will win 2-0

0-1 Taylor, 25 yarder after a nice holdup play from Sam.
0-2 Butler, from a Mark Wright cross :shock:

Just about to top up with fuel, then it's on the road, joining the army of fans with the flags flying from cars. Well the dreams start today, lets hope this time next year we are starting in Lge 1, Cum on you Saddlers. :roll:

A different view: -

The match looks to be petering out to a 0-0 bore draw, Hector Sam having wasted the Saddlers' only two half-decent chances, when Ince fails to hold a speculative 35 yard punt. A very poor Rochdale team 1, Walsall 0. Same old story - what might have been.

Negative? Pessimist? Quite possibly, but I can't see where any creativity is coming from. Maybe Kris Taylor? Maybe I've got it all wrong and we thrash them 3-0 (I hope so!). Taylor spots a chance for Butler and threads a splendid long ball through the middle for him to score, or he puts across a superb corner for Gerrard, Picken or Dobson to convert.

Unpredictable Walsall, you never can tell. One of the reasons why all of us fans keep on supporting them. We just live in hope!!

Not working in Australia either! Saddlersworld directors should be arrested for obtaining monies under false pretences.

Send the club an email (option under the 'interact banner' on the official site). I asked them if it was too much to expect it to work more often than it doesn't.

We'll have to wait till Kearns (or whoever's commentating) answers his mobile at half time and flicks the switch, or whatever he hasn't done. :roll:

It is the premiumtv that handles the World packages... has nothing to do with Walsall at all other then Walsall paying them to handle the broadcast and stuff.
Seems like yet again there is problems between Radio WM and the webbroadcast.

I have sent an e-mail to them to see if they know why not Walsalls commentary is working...

The last time they blamed Radio WM.

I would say that the problems we have been having continuously with the Saddlersworld commentary are entirely down to WM and their 'end' of the connection, using the facts that this has happened so often, and that it always seems that we are the only club that has no commentary availible when I check the other links...

I think the problem is in that area too... but they don't seem to do anything to get it better either.

its we who don't get value for the money we pay.. makes me really dissapointed.

its Radio WM as we thought. Got a reply from the World support.


We sincerely apologise for the lack of commentary for today's game.

I am afraid there were technical problems with the radio station.

Please find opposition commentary today.

Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.
