I’m Walsall ‘Til I Die, I Know I Am, I’m Sure I Am, I’m Walsall ‘Til I Die.

Your chance to feature in an exciting new book about your experiences of supporting Walsall Football Club.

Way of life

Following The Saddlers becomes a way of life for many of us. Whether at home or travelling away we experience moments of elation and exhilaration which become landmarks in our lives. But as we know all too well, there are also the low points of despair and disappointment when we feel that all our hopes have been dashed.

Memories of supporters

The Walsall Supporters’ Trust is publishing a new book which will be on sale at the start of next season. Walsall ‘Til I Die will reflect the memories and experiences of supporters both young and old. Players and managers may come and go but it is the fans who give the permanent character to a club like Walsall. And so as a celebration of the fans, this book will reveal the fun, the absurd, the emotional, the peculiar or unbelievable that is part and parcel of following The Saddlers.
