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 the first-team.
Stan Straw started as Redditch United made their way to Townsend Meadow and took on Racing Club Warwick in the Southern League - Premier Central on Tuesday evening.
Falling behind to an Archie Hamp with eleven minutes on the clock, Redditch were eventually able to drag their hosts onto level terms by Szhem Whyte-Hall just after the hour mark, before Dan Sweeney scored what turned out to be the winning goal with nine minutes of the second-half to play.
Despite the win, it was a concerning evening for Stan, who, following a lengthy spell of treatment, was replaced by Sam Beedie after seventy-three minutes of play. A clash of heads with goalscorer Hamp the cause of the injury.
Ronan Maher retained his starting spot as Wealdstone welcomed Solihull Moors to Grosvenor Vale for a clash in the National League.
It was looking to be a difficult evening for Gary Waddock and his Stones side, as goals from Marvin Johnson and Jamie Andrews saw the visitors fashion a two-goal lead before the midway point of the first-half.
Ronan didn't complete the match as he was replaced by Joe Newton with ten minutes of the first-half to play, manager Waddock looking to settle his side.
The game burst into life during the last ten minutes when Aaron Henry put the Stones back to within a goal of the Moors, only for Scott High to restore their two-goal lead a few minutes later.
Fejiri Okenabirhie scored late on to give Wealdstone some hope, but that would be the end of the scoring with the recently rejuvenated Moors winning 3-2.
