WE GO into the game on the back of a goalless draw at Cheltenham last weekend.

A point and a clean sheet away from home is important, but if you look at the chances we created, we could have easily won the game.

Stockport are having a great season, especially away from home, and we have to be mindful of that. It's a great time from their point of view and they have set their standards high, but we will be looking build upon our last performance and take the game to them.

We need to get the three points and play well. There is no reason why we can't do that; we know it's a big game and there is sure to be a special atmosphere around the place.

There are some tough challenges coming up, but if we can remain unbeaten, the League table will start to look very different come the New Year.

I'm not one for setting targets, but what I will say is that we are attempting to get a level of consistency that will give ourselves a chance of winning football matches.

We'll keep doing our best and working hard to see where it takes us.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all Walsall supporters and their families...
