Ronan Maher Makes Professional Debut

The youngster followed up a strong pre-season by making his first-team debut on the opening day of the new campaign.

Another player has made their way through the ranks at Poundland Bescot Stadium as attacking midfielder Ronan Maher made his first-team debut as the Saddlers defeated Hartlepool United on Saturday afternoon.

Replacing summer signing Andy Williams with ten minutes of the game remaining, Ronan played a part in the Saddlers' four-nil thrashing of the Pools as they began the new term in fine style.

Maher is one of a handful of second-year scholars in the club's Academy, is the latest in a long line to progress through to the first-team and is seen as a major prospect in WS1.

The local lad enjoyed a superb 2021/22 as he bagged the majority of goals scored by the Under018s whilst also contributing several assists, despite the team as a while enduring a difficult campaign.

Congratulations, Ronan!
