Here's our latest look at how the loaned-out Saddlers are getting on.
Bescot Banter - Walsall FC News
There are a handful of Saddlers currently out on loan, with players from the academy and first-team looking to impress and potentially force their way into Mat Sadler's first-team plans.

Stan Straw — Halesowen
After making the short-term move across the Black Country, Stan was named in the starting XI for the Yeltz' PitchingIn Southern League Premier Division Central clash with Royston Town on Saturday afternoon.

The opening goal of the game went the way of Halesowen when Jason Cowley capped off a cutting Yeltz attack to tap the ball over the line.

Sadly for Town, their lead didn't last as Royston went on to secure a share of the spoils via Josh Boorn with just one minutes of normal time remaining.

Stan completed the full ninety minutes, and will be keen to build upon his display over the next few weeks.

McLloyd Oben — Stourbridge
McLloyd was an unused substitute when Stourbridge and Leiston played out a one-all draw at the War Memorial Athletic Ground.

Tyrone Barnett gave the Glassboys the lead just before the game reached the half-hour mark, only for Adam Mills to restore parity ahead of half-time.

Dylan Thomas — Stafford Town
Dylan was named on the bench as Stratford returned to Pitching In Southern League fixture action as they played host to AFC Sudbury.

Owen James gave the bards the lead after thirty-one minutes, with his goal proving to be enough to secure all three points.

Dylan was only afforded five minutes of action as he replaced Fin Brennan late in the second half.

Ronan Maher — Tamworth
Ronan was named in the starting XI as Tamworth faced Hyde United in the Fourth Round Qualifying of the Emirates FA Cup.

Ben Milnes put the Lambs ahead shortly after the hour mark, with the goal ultimately being enough to secure his side a place in Monday afternoon's First Round draw.

Ronan played for eighty-two minutes before being replaced by Harvey Sayer, some welcome match minutes for the midfield maestro.

Josh Gordon — Barrow
Josh was named in the starting XI as Barrow and Oldham Athletic played out a goalless draw at Boundary Park.

Josh played for the full ninety-minutes, but was unable to impact the scoreline as the spoils were shared.

Levi Amantchi — Rochdale
Levi was a second-half substitute as National League leaders Rochdale took on York City in the Fourth Round Qualifying of the Emirates FA Cup,

Sadly for the Dale, this would be their final outing in this season's competition, as Alex Newby's brace either side of Emmanuel Dieseruvwe's 75th minute goal saw York through to the First Round (proper).

Coming on as part of a triple change, Levi was given just over twenty minutes of action, as he continues to struggle for starts during his time at the Crown Oil Arena.
