Walsall CEO Ben Sadler has issued a statement ahead of this afternoon's Sky Bet League Two meeting between the Saddlers and AFC Wimbledon, where he calls upon the expected 9,000 fans to get behind the team and drive them to victory.Issued via the club's official website on Friday evening, Ben's statement reads: Saddlers supporters,
When Trivela took over Walsall Football Club just under 3 years ago, they set out a clear mission: to inspire the hearts and minds of our community.
This season, our team and our staff have given the town of Walsall renewed hope and memories to cherish for generations.
Playing in front of the biggest average crowds that the Poundland Bescot Stadium has seen in 20 years, our team, playing staff and all our colleagues are giving everything for this club - fighting for every moment, ready to run through brick walls to accomplish something remarkable.
Powered by your outstanding and unwavering support, both at our home and across the country this season, right now we sit top of League Two.
As it stands, with just eight games to go—four of them at home—we can all feel the excitement, the belief and the desire to achieve running through our fan base and the town.
Now is the time to be brave. To dream about what could be possible, rather than fear what might not happen. These opportunities don’t come around often, and with you, we can make this season one to remember.
Tomorrow [Saturday], we’ll have over 9,000 packing out the Poundland Bescot Stadium.
Let’s be loud. Let’s be proud. Let’s stand together and drive our team over the line.
Up the Saddlers!
Ben.
