Was listening to a bit of the commentary from Dan last night while doing my domestic taxi duties. He said Kee was over-eager at the moment but you would expect that from an 18yr old trying to make an impression.

What pleased me wi Kee was he was there to miss it, bit of a novelty that IMHO, can remember the great "Jimmy Greaves" always being there.

Exactly what I was thinking at the time. 99 times out of 100 that would have been in the net.
I thought it was number 517 Jeff?? Should be on Accy Site soon...
Alfred.E. and I have several pairs of our now-famous RED-tinted ones doing nowt (oops!...NOTHING !) at the moment Mab...seeing clearly now through optimistic eyes they are, for the moment at least, totally redundant !!..so if they are required ........?????.
WHAT ME WORRY....Not with Paul Mullin back amongst the goals again !!!
'ON STANLEY !....ON!)
good display from the midfield.
jimmy ryan looked very acomplished on the ball as did john miles.
paul mullin competed for everything and was unlucky not to get more decisions from the ref.
martin was in command of his area.
winnard looks a good prospect.
King had an off game and his distribution suffered as his confidence dropped, Kempson fitness still does not convince me (he dropped off against rotherham in the 2nd half) and mullin and kee up front at times seemed to similar aka a lack of genuine pace.
Is john mullin still injured and just taking up one of the 7 bench places or is he now fit? I rate him as a ball winner and hope he gets a chance on saturday, be good to rotate the team a bit with the ammount of games (sat/tues/sat/tues/sat/tues/sat).
Who is the 3rd choice keeper back up if leeds call martin back/he or dunbavin get injured?
Where is the loan defender from leeds?

Pretty sure it was 5027; I remember that it was £182.50
Think it was a lad called Lees, but has not come...
Definitely worth the trip north. Just a few of my thoughts, for what they are worth. Starting at the back, I'm surprised that no-one has so far mentioned Alan Martin's distribution which I thought was excellent. He has a powerful and accurate kick, and can also see opportunities to throw the ball out to an unmarked colleague. What was so different was that other players were looking for this, especially Dean Winnard. So we were able to build attacks. I thought Dean had a great game - strong tackler, good distribution, and always willing to overlap. Chris King tackled well, but it was not one of his better games in terms of distribution. Darren Kempson and Phil Edwards were strong at the heart of the defence. It says much for the quality of the defensive work that although Walsall always looked threatening, Alan Martin did not have a real shot to save.
Midfield worked hard, with Proccy covering every blade of grass on the field, Luke Joyce always available to help break up Walsall attacks or build our own attacks, and both John Miles and Jimmy Ryan a constant threat with their strong running. Billy Kee will develop into an excellent striker. He worked very hard indeed and was a real threat in the penalty area. He seemed to take a knock in the first half and was limping after that. As for Paul Mullin, it was certainly one of the best games I've seen him play over the last year or so.
The fact that one of the two substitutes scored and the other hit the post with a cracking shot shows that we have some depth in the squad too.
Yes, I'm optimistic!

Nice link that Mike, cheers One thing that I picked up on and did not notice on the night, was the way that Proccy (And the team) were cool and calm around the referee and did not start to wave around imaginary cards Showed some respect to the officials - well done lads...
