The Walsall Chronicle
Transfer targets31 Aug 2026
Walsall make their move for Dan Scarr
$360.0K on the table at Wrexham. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.
Squad31 Aug 2026
Tempers go at Walsall
James Furlong was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
Transfer targets31 Aug 2026
Door shut on Harvey Davies
Walsall asked and Liverpool said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.
The terraces31 Aug 2026
One of their own: Josh Landers
He is 19 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
Match29 Aug 2026
Amin Nabizada sends Walsall past Salford City
It finished 1‑0, and it was Amin Nabizada’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Walsall.
Squad31 Aug 2026
Appearance number 100 for Aaron Pressley
100 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.
Market31 Aug 2026
A long bet from Walsall on Harrison McMahon
He is 20, and nobody at Walsall signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.
Transfer targets31 Aug 2026
Walsall ask about Oakley Cannonier
A loan enquiry to Liverpool: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.
Player ratings31 Aug 2026
Amin Nabizada takes the honours
Marked 7.23 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Walsall had the best player on the pitch.
In brief
- The dugout The view from the dugout
- Squad No place for Harrison McMahon in the new shape
- Market Walsall and Stephen Duke-McKenna are talking past each other
