Oh Pooch we played a naive team not much better than ourselves. We got a last-minute break and scored a goal that shocked everyone and sent our travelling fans into such a delirium most of them had to be hospitalised.
I hope tonight doesn't come as too much of a shock to you.
Caldwell hasn't got any resources to work with. I'm not judging him; I'm judging us. Lots of managers approach a relegation battle by concentrating on defence (Sheri when he took us down for instance did it in a second half of the season of 0-0 and 1-0 results). The trouble is if your resources are limited the cost of not conceding is not scoring either. That's what has been happening to us. And almost any fool can buy you a clean sheet at a cost of four efforts on goal in a game. I'm not trying to criticise Mr Caldwell it's just that he has to repeat Saturday several times before it is a viable plan. I hope I'm wrong about tonight and that Walsall with nothing to play for have an idle Tuesday.
