Walsall Council Leader Councillor Mike Bird has spoken to the local press ahead of Walsall's season-ending Sky Bet League 1 clash with Port Vale, and has wished the team well as they seek to earn automatic promotion to the Championship.
Speaking via the Express & Star, Councillor Bird said; "They could be playing Villa next year and that would be a time. They have done exceptionally well this season. It's sad they sometimes lose it in the last few minutes. When you look at the games they've lost, they seem to lose concentration and focus.
"But I think they've done a great job this season and I don't think people realise how much they bring to Walsall. There is a great feeling among fans. We all went to Wembley. Maybe they're on a roll? We all wish them well."
