Walsall boss Mat Sadler remaining level-headed

Mat Sadler insists he will remain consistent in both victory and defeat at Walsall.

The Saddlers followed a run of successive wins over Colchester and Salford with back-to-back defeats against Swindon and AFC Wimbledon.

And Sadler has emphasised the importance of controlling emotions during the ups and downs of a league season.

Sadler said: “That’s just who I am as a person.

“When you’ve been in the game so long, and we have been in it for a long time, you have good times, bad times, indifferent times and long runs winning games.

“You always know that the next opportunity is just around the corner.

“Consistency is key, but for me as a person, that’s how I always wanted my manager to be. I always found it difficult when managers were up and down.”
