Despite the match being the Saddlers' second win in as many games, Saturday's victory over Newport County was not the happy occasion it should have been as Walsall boss Michael Flynn was the subject of abuse.
Along with being on the receiving end of several disgusting comments, the former County boss was also the target of several missiles launched from a section of home support.
The Exiles have today issued a statement confirming that, following a brief investigation, they have now identified the supporter responsible and issued an immediate ban, pending further investigation.

Released via their official website, the statement confirms; A male has been identified as being responsible for the missile throwing. The CCTV has been viewed, and the footage clearly captures the incident and the offender. This evidence will be handed over to Gwent Police.
The male will be banned from attending matches at Rodney Parade pending the police investigation. Following the outcome of the police investigation, the length of this club ban will be determined.
The pitch must remain safe for players, managers, and match officials, just as the stands should be for supporters.
