Semi-final - 03.05.05
Playing their first
game for 3 months,
Walsall
under-13s nearly pulled off the shock of the season in this
West Midlands
semi-final. All the goal action came in the last ten minutes
with
Walsall
taking a deserved lead when Robbie Edgar (Aldridge) scored
following a superb Ryan Walker (Willenhall) corner. Five minutes later Edgar set
up
Walker
with a defence splitting ball but
Walker
’s shot was inches over the bar. Wolves equalised a minute
later through Kane Cork following a corner. With seconds to go another corner
saw the ball slip from
Walsall
keeper Daniel Whitehouse’s (Streetly) grasp and Johnathan
Baker scored the winner.

U-13 1
- 03.02.07
Walsall
under-13s gained another important
West Midlands
victory with a good performance at Erdington and Saltley. A
forgettable first half was followed by an all-action second half. Sam Smith
(Streetly) went close for
Walsall
and Ryan Walker (Willenhall) had a couple of good chances as
they put the home side under terrific pressure.
Walsall
finally got what they deserved when Robbie Edgar (Aldridge)
split the defence with a superb pass and
Walker
ran on to slot the ball past the keeper.
Walsall
should have added to the lead as great play by
Walker
set up David Meddings (Aldridge) but his shot was blocked.
Sam Smith (Streetly) and Oliver Spencer (Aldridge) were both denied a goal in a
frantic last couple of minutes.

U-13 0 Kings Norton
and
South Birmingham
U-13 5 - 09.12.06
Walsall under-13s opened their
West Midlands
campaign with a disastrous 5-goal reverse. All five Kings
Norton and
South Birmingham
goals could be put down to defensive frailties.
Walsall
keeper Daniel Whitehouse (Streetly) had no chance with any
of the goals and Jarred Goldbourne (Shelfield) confirmed his position as
Walsall
’s best player on the day with an early goal saving tackle.
Walsall
’s only real threat came near the end when Jak
Morrell-Davis (Shelfield) went close following a free kick.

season Walsall fought hard but were always up against it.
