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.

Sam Oliver - Dudley Town, Ellis Harris - Tividale
Sam Oliver was named on the bench and Ellis was an unused substitute as Dudley defeated Tividale 3-2 in the Midland Football League Premier Division.

The Robins bounced back from going behind when Matt Funge converted from the spot, before second-half substitute Kyle Moseley scored twice to deny the Dale.

Sam had to wait for the second forty-five to take to the field, as he replaced Joe Colley with seven minutes of the second-half played.

McLloyd Oben - Rugby Town
McLloyd was a second-half substitute as Rugby Town lost 3-0 to Mickleover in the Northern Premier League - Midlands Division at Butlin Road.

Two goals from Thabang Dube along with an effort from Louis Bonser, saw the visitors take all three points on Boxing Day.

McLloyd, who replaced Sam Tye with fifteen minutes of the game remaining, is joined at Rugby by Jakub Pawlowski

Ronan Maher - Tamworth
Ronan started and scored as the Lambs were hammered 7-1 away to Solihull Moors in the National League.

Levelling the scores with seventeen minutes on the clock, this was the only highlight in an afternoon to forget for the RAM and his teammates.

A Joe Sbarra hat-trick, along with goals from Tyler French, Tyrese Sinclair, Conor Wilkinson, and Bradley Stevenson saw the Moors ease to victory.

Louie Webb - Coleshill Town
Louie was a late second-half substitute as the Colemen defeated Lichfield City in the Northern Premier League - Midlands Division.

Ben Usher-Shipway's second-half brace proved to be enough to secure the win and move Harry Harris' side into the Play-Off places.

Webb eventually replaced Theo Rowe with just three minutes of normal time remaining.

Will Etheridge, Paul Makavore - Darlaston Town
Paul started and Will was named on the bench as Darlaston Town took on Sporting Khalsa at Noose Lane on Boxing Day.

It was Khalsa who would take all three points as a goal from Chay Tilt along with Andre Landell's brace cancelled out a Kieran Cook brace.

Josh Gordon - Barrow
Josh started and completed the full game as Barrow slipped to a late defeat away to Accrington Stanley in League Two.

Falling behind to a Benn Ward goal after half-an-hour, Charlie McCann levelled the scored later in the first-half, before Josh Woods scored a 90th-minute winner to lift Stanley ten point above the drop zone.
