Loan Watch: Saturday, 22nd February 2025

Here's our latest look at how the loaned-out Saddlers are getting on.

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.

Jenson Kilroy • Stratford Town

Jenson started as Stratford Town made their way to the RDA Stadium and took on Bishop's Stortford on Saturday afternoon.

The first goal of the game went the way of the home side when Olu Oluwatimilehin slammed the ball in off the underside of the bar from just outside the area.

An equaliser arrived late in the second-half when substitute Charlie Williams scored from the spot as the spoils were shared.

Tom Owen • Dudley Town

Dudley Town and Wolverhampton Casuals played out a goalless draw at Brinsford Lane.

Dylan Thomas • Redditch United

Dylan was named on the bench as Redditch visited the Sir Halley Stewart Field, where they would take on Spalding United.

Taking the lead via Ryan Boothe with just five minutes played, the Reds went on to concede twice as the Tulips took all three points - goals from debutant Jason Law and James Clifton were enough for the win.

Dylan replaced Nick Clayton-Phillips shortly after the match had reached the hour mark, but couldn't change the course of the contest.

Ronan Maher • Tamworth

Ronan started as Tamworth welcomed Southend United to the Lamb for a National League clash on Saturday afternoon.

Opening the scoring via Kennedy Digie, the Lambs were ultimately dragged back onto level terms by Gus Scott-Morriss nine minutes into the second forty-five as the spoils were shared.

Maher was replaced by Beck-Ray Enoru in the second half as the manager looked to change his side's fortunes.

Charlie Wragg • Halesowen Town

Charlie was a second-half substitute as Halesowen and Stourbridge clashed in front of a superb 3,043 fans for the 'Number 9 Derby'.

It was the Glassboys who grabbed the opening goal of the game as former Walsall scholar Ethan Freemantle struck inside the opening minute.

However, replacing former Saddlers Reece Flanagan with some eighteen minutes of the second-half remaining, Charlie made an impact just seven minutes later as he levelled the scores.

The Yeltz went on to not only put themselves ahead but add another goal to their lead as Kieren Donnelly struck twice before full-time.
