First 2 new signings for the Saddlers - and one to follow?

Last updated : 02 July 2008 By Shilts
Walsall manager Jimmy Mullen has made his first new signings in his bid to revamp the depleted Walsall squad.

Stephen Roberts, a 28 year old central defender from Doncaster Rovers has joined us on a two-year deal for a free transfer. After starting last season's campaign well, injury restricted him to handful of appearances.

Our second signing is Jabo Ibehre, a transfer from Leyton Orient. Ibehre is a 25 year old striker who made over 250 appearances for the O's after coming through their youth system. Ibehre has signed a 1-year deal at the club.

Rumours are that a midfield player may also be putting pen to paper this afternoon, but we will bring more news on this when we get it...
