THE MONTH of April kicked off at Millwall as The Saddlers looked to keep our play-off dreams alive against a side gunning for automatic promotion.

An equaliser on the half-hour mark by Jabo Ibehre cancelled out Jason Price's opener for the home side.

The Lions regained the lead on the stroke of half-time through Gary Alexander, who then notched his second ten minutes into the second period to seal the points.

There was a worrying injury to Manny Smith, who collided with David Forde, and was knocked unconscious. After lengthy treatment, he was taken to hospital where he was released later that evening after being given the all-clear.

A home game with fellow play-off chasers, Tranmere Rovers followed and a tight encounter was decided ten minutes from the end when Bas Savage snatched a winner for the visitors.

We returned to winning ways for the first time in three games in the Easter Monday sunshine at Stockport County.

An early goal from Anthony Gerrard gave us a deserved lead before Tommy Rowe missed a second half penalty for County.

They eventually equalised courtesy of a Greg Tansey free-kick with just under quarter-of-an-hour to go, but we kept battling away and got the winner right at the death when Mark Bradley made his presence felt and the ball deflected into the net off home 'keeper, Conrad Logan.

We made an explosive start to our penultimate home game of the season against Huddersfield Town as Jabo Ibehre scored twice within the opening 28 minutes.

Chris Hutchings' side were coasting to victory until two goals in as many minutes right on half-time brought The Terriers level and they proceeded to snatch victory during the second half.

Our final away game of the season saw the usual fancy dress amongst the travelling contingent as we took on an MK Dons side that still had aspirations of automatic promotion.

The Saddlers were on top for the majority of the game and the in-form Jabo Ibehre scored on the hour to secure three points.

The season ended with a home game against Oldham Athletic in a 'winner takes tenth place' battle.

It took just 31 seconds for Troy Deeney to open the scoring, but the visitors hit back, equalising just befoe the interval and then winning it during the second period.

The set-back meant that we ended the campaign in 13th position.
