00:00It has to be. The manner in which it ended was very disappointing. Walsall looked completely
00:05out of sorts, a shadow of the team that we've seen propel themselves to heady heights this
00:13season in League 2. The run was always going to come to an end. It was a difficult afternoon
00:25for Walsall. We've seen, we'll obviously speak ahead of the Fleetwood game, but Walsall
00:33suffered that setback 6-2 defeat against Fleetwood in October. Many people were concerned and
00:40maybe had fears that this was going to be the beginning of the downfall for Walsall.
00:45Instead it served as a really key wake-up call for them because they went 16 matches
00:51in the league without defeat after that and propelled themselves into the position that
00:56they are now, including what was a club record nine-match winning streak. Walsall had plenty
01:02in the bank in that respect but they need to make sure that it's just purely a blip
01:06rather than anything more sinister really.
