Byfield 'Delighted' as Walsall Return to Winning Ways

Here's how interim Saddlers boss Darren Byfield saw his side's latest performance.
Interim Walsall boss Darren Byfield admitted he was delighted after seeing his side earn a comfortable 3-1 victory away to Barrow on Saturday afternoon.

Going into the game on the back of a duo of defeats and in search of a first win away to the Bluebirds since 1970, the Saddlers opened the scoring via Albrt Adomah before Mason Hancock scored his first and second goals in a Walsall shirt.

The home side were able to get on the scoresheet late in the second forty-five, Jovan Malcolm coming off the bench to give his side an ultimately unfulfilled glimmer of hope.

Speaking to the assembled media, Darren said: "I was delighted with the performance. We knew, last week, we let ourselves down.

"That's collectively, and we had to put it right today. I don't think we've won here in the last five visits, so to get the win, I was delighted."

Going on to talk about brace-bagger Mason Hancock, Byfield was full of praise as he showed just what he is capable of. Darren continued, "Mason is a top player. He's been a standout performer as well since he's come back from his injury, and I'm delighted for him today.

"I'm guessing he would have also wanted a clean sheet, but we didn't get that today. I thought he was really good today, played really well, and I'm glad he got a couple of goals."
