Walsall defender James O'Connor has spoken to the local press as he begins his summer break ahead of the 2015/16 campaign, and has discussed his decision to join the Saddlers last summer, insisting football is not always about finances.

Speaking to the Express & Star, James said; “Last summer, there were a few different options and this was the right one. Football is not always about finances.

“I’ve had ups and I’ve had downs but I have enjoyed coming into work every day as well. I would never have let the season just peter out, that is not how I am as a player or a person."
