Will be nice to see the 2 best teams in the Black Country pit their wits against each other.
For us its a friendly - for wolves its nearly a fixture….
Unless we have actually got any players signed by then, it will be a bit like my old Sunday league team when we couldn’t get 11 “decent” players sometimes; and your hopeless fat mate, the funny cross eyed lad and the strange bloke who nobody knew but turned up every week had to play !!…and we usually lost 13-0. Looking gorward to August already !..Up The Saddlers !

if i see any half decent players in these friendlys that are willing to play for peanuts i will give mick a call boing boing roll along august
No point playing the dingles, no competition.
Walsall will be a sterner test.

I suggest a quick return to school. grammar and spelling need serious work.
Oh, and perhaps you could learn to spell you name correctly too - I am sure it should read rob hindmyarse!
