Goals from Josh Gordon and Wes McDonald saw the Saddlers withstand both late pressure and a Aaron Collins goal to secure their first win in four Sky Bet League Two outings, moving them just nine points from the Play-Off places.
Clarke went on to praise his team for their response as they were able to bounce back from last weekend's defeat to Crewe Alexandra and believes they did all the right things as they bagged three points on the road.
The manager also praised the Saddlers faithful as 995 fans made the trip to the New Lawn to cheer on their club despite a string of defeats.
