DEENEY READY TO TAKE ON 'WOUNDED ANIMAL'

Posted on: Thu 15 Oct 2009

FRONT-man, Troy Deeney is hoping that The Saddlers can bounce back from last weekend's disappointing defeat at MK Dons, when missed chances cost us dearly, as we take on Exeter City on Saturday (kick-off 3.00pm).

"It was one of those games," he said. "On another day the chances would have gone in and we would have come home with a deserved three points.

"It's gone now and we have to move on. We will address where we went wrong, but on a positive note, we had a good spell on top against a team who are sure to be up there challenging come the end of the season.

"It proves what we are capable of and we know that we have to be up for the fight against an Exeter City side who will come here looking to bounce back from last Saturday's heavy defeat at Huddersfield.

"They will be like a wounded animal but hopefully we can start another unbeaten run where we can turn some of the draws into wins.

"We know that if we give the supporters something to shout about, they will be right behind us and from a personal point of view, I know that if we get decent service into the box both Darren Byfield and I will score goals."

Interestingly, both The Saddlers and Exeter have identical records from their last six League games having won two, drawn two and lost two, with eight goals scored and ten conceded.

The game will see us highlighting the work that we do to bring local communities together as part of the One Game, One Community Week of Action. "Everyone here at Walsall FC, from the players and coaching staff, to stewards and ball boys, are committed to ensuring we collectively do all we can to not only keep discrimination away from the Banks's Stadium but to bring communities together by reaching out to all races, cultures and faiths with the power of football," said Saddlers' boss, Chris Hutchings. "Please join us in spreading the 'One Game, One Community' message.

"It is important for us to pledge our commitment to such a worthwhile campaign. As a club, Walsall FC wishes to promote equality, diversity and inclusion. Players and supporters need to stand up against any forms of discrimination in the game. It has no place whatsoever in football."
