In the latest of his regular pre-match 'Team Talk' articles, Walsall manager Dean Smith has insisted that Tuesday evening's result, and more importantly the performance will not be repeated.
In the latest of his regular pre-match 'Team Talk' articles, Walsall manager Dean Smith has insisted that Tuesday evening's result, and more importantly the performance, will not be repeated.

Speaking to Saddlers.co.uk, Smith said: "It's a case of putting Tuesday's game at Rochdale to bed now and moving on to the challenge that we face at Gillingham on Saturday.

"We went back through the game on Wednesday, discussed it at length with every player taking the opportunity to have their say, and now it is boxed off.

"I will always defend my players, but when they become indefensible as they were on Tuesday, I can't and won't do it.

"It was even more frustrating because we played so well to beat a good Preston North End side in our previous game.

"The manner in which we conceded our goals was very poor and it ranks as one of the worst performances of my time in charge. Suffice to say that it won't happen again."
