Very scrappy start and VERY quiet crowd.

Aggghhhh!!! Long clearance nodded on by Dackers, Angol clear through but lifted it over the bar.

Corner, scambled, fell to Angol who had a shot blocked, then got a second shot away, but went over.

The first chance, mentioned before, was difficult but needed to hit the target.

Dackers with a shot on target from outside the area. Easy enough for the keeper, but not a bad shot.

Still very even, perhaps even slightly on top.

Great play from Hendrie, crossed to Angol, who nodded narrowly over.

FFS! Williams, straight red. Pulled their lad's shirt, but they still had a lot to do, Taylor would probably have got back.

And to add insult to injury, they score directly from the free-kick. Williams has been good all season, but that was a stupid sending off.

What a plonker! No need for the foul, straight in front of the officials, deserved red card.
Punished for it straight away. Uphill battle now both in this game, and staying in this league.

Like every single team that has come to the mazuma this season, Walsall look like a really poor side, but it doesn’t matter, we always find a way to lose. We are truly shocking

The referee has put a white shirt on! Some what I would call fouls on Morecambe players. have been ignored. Only nine players on the pitch now. Blood injury.

We've put a good shift in since the sending off, but we risk getting caught on the break.

Down to nine men, while P. Lewis is treated for a blood injury.

Great play by Songo'o to A.Lewis, superb cross, but Dackers headed over. Playing well.

Great save Burgoyne. They are controlling possession now.

Commentary went off for five minutes!

If we lose this them I honestly believe we will be relegated.. just my opinion but we would have to go on a win streak and that ain't going to happen..

I still wouldn't say that. This wasn't a game, on paper, that I'd expected points from. But we've matched top of the league (again). We may manage to get that required winning streak.

So frustrating. Twice this season we've matched them, but we've nothing to show for it. They're top of the league, we're staring relegation in the face.

We've really got to get that winning run going. And PLEASE, play Adam Lewis & Dackers at the same time, either coming on as subs together, or starting together.

Who cares if they are top of the league. If you watched the game today, you would have seen that they look a poor side and we’ve hardly laid a glove on them.

Agree with you about Adam Lewis but Dackers has no idea how to find the net even if his head does connect. Mind you the same applies to Angol and Hope. We are going down because no one can take the chances that are being created. Another fighting performance but we lack the killer punch up front.

Poor defending for the second goal. Game over after a great spell of pressure from us following the sending off. We were always competing until the dismissal. If anything, we seemed to up our game and had a couple of chances. But we obviously need to take the chances.
Can't say that Walsall were anything special, it's a pity we didn't play them during their recent poor spell.
A final flurry in time added on, but we're destined not to score!
Lack of respect from the Walsall manager, he wouldn't shake hands with Derek! What a pillock, you would have thought that they had lost.
