Morecambe (H) - League 2 - Sat 10th August, 3pm

I feel a 1-0 defeat.

They are alot better than any of our strikers! We are in trouble Saturday aren’t we

They’re seriously not. Matt and Gordon have both scored more goals in L2 than any of their strikers. I’m not enamoured by any means by our current forward options but I would still prefer our 2 to any of their five.

If Gordon scores 8 this year I’d have a heart attack

Get a striker and attacking mid in before the game we win this… if not i reckon we will lose… morecambe will score and we will need to

Odds on dj to sit on the bench but not come on to appease the crowd ?

Seriously I don’t know why you’re so passionate about putting down our players.

FWIW the player in question Jordan Slew scored 8 last season in 44 league games last season, previous to that:

2 in 18 (National League)
10 in 38 (National League)
1 in 17 (L2)
0 in 11 (L2)
2 in 13 (National League North)

He’s not ‘alot better’ than our striker, at best you can argue in goals at least he’s similar to Josh Gordon albeit his goals have been at a lower level. If he was a lot better then I assume you would be delighted if we signed him, yet we all know had we announced Jordan Slew a month ago there would have been a meltdown about his signing and lack of quality.

Good post…we should be supporting our players not knocking them. I am very disappointed with our failure to land the forwards we need but our players deserve support or what is the point?

Based on no knowledge about Morecambe at all im going for a 1-2 defeat and going home extremely grumpy and venting on UTS.

Jordan Slew is not league quality - not saying he won’t score against us Saturday - but I wouldn’t want him in a Walsall shirt. On his day, when not injured Jamma is a top top player and a real handful. With Flash you know you’re getting 100% work rate and effort - he just needs a little bit more luck infront of goal to get his confidence up.

The rest of our squad - particularly midfield is good and better than Morecambe.

I’m going for a 3 - 0 win for the Saddlers. First goal a pinpoint Adomah cross for Jamma to head into the net.

Must win against Morecambe - no excuses. UTS.

I am going 2-0 us jellis & Larkin for us

A win for us I think, but only because Morecambe are a bit of a basket case club at the moment.

Just hope a positive performance doesn’t gloss over the glaring deficiencies of the squad and the club still pursue more additions.

It’s a real 6-pointer…

Did he cost them much money or was he signed for peanuts?

Agree mate. Need to keep it on the ground and use the midfield. Play like we’re the home side.

We need to do that, but from what we’ve seen of Sadsball…we won’t do that. Back to front to quickly and to try and pen sides in with a high press

He plays close to the touchlinus…and I’ll probably get Pelt-ers for this!!

With limit action going forward im going for morecambe to win 2.0 with 67 percentage of the play. Saddler to say we were unlucky that the defence let him down. As strike force were unlucky not to score with Gordan hitting the post sorry corner flag. Matt to come off after 54 minute nackered and injured.

Nil nil.
