Following Saturday afternoon's Sky Bet League 1 draw between Dean Smith's Saddlers and visitors Crewe Alexandra, the gaffer spoke to the local press, and has insisted that he was happy with his side's dominant performance, despite grabbing just one goal from over twenty opportunities.
Speaking to the Express & Star, Smith said; "It was an excellent performance - I was really pleased with the reaction from Wednesday night and 'the Lord Mayor show.'
"The reaction was fantastic and the performance was brilliant. The pleasing thing is I have got a lot of respect for what Crewe do - the philosophy they have got and how they play.
"To play like that and outperform them is very pleasing. It did feel like there was a bit of a force-field around their goal, at times.
"It was just one of those days. The fans stayed with us all game. They were clapping us off at the end because they could see the effort the lads had put in."
