It was noted that Walsall have not won in ELEVEN league home games. Indeed it the last league win came on NEW YEARS EVE against Blackpool where two second half goals from James Constable sent us home and into the new year happy. Although, we did pick up a fine 2-0 win over Barnsley in the FA Cup 3rd round replay on Tuesday 17th January.
If you want to look at reasons why we found ourselves relegated then really you have to look no further than this statistic. Its quite ironic actually because if you remember this season, Walsall also set our record home win sequence!! How long ago that seems now!!
