    Walsall – top of the League? You’ll get a nose bleed!

    I spent a working life in Walsall and cut my football watching football at Fellows Park in the the Hillary Street end and went to school in that street.

    Good to see that you are doing well.

    Hey Phoenix I get the impression Walsall and many other fans of lower league clubs have abbandoned this site

    The change in ownership of Teamtalk looks as if it has put paid to the interests of lower league fans. As of now it is just the Premiership and not much else although it is being bandied about that each Championship club will soon have its own page so that will be an improvement. That might generate some more traffic.

    There’s not much in the way of advertising the site so I suppose it is a question of word by mouth as well.

    Things, as they say, can only get better

    It’s a shame how quiet it’s gone. L1 your say page used to be quality when the likes of Leeds, Southampton and Leicester were down with us and we always had the lone deluded MK Donkey making us laugh.

    There is the height of depression as regards my beloved LUFC but at least there is a bit of brightness as little Walsall keep getting some very decent results.

    I should think that the Saddlers can forget about the “R” word this season and it ain’t even December yet!

    COME ON!!

    Just popping up from the last floor down in the engine room. It is true TT have really screwed up in my opinion, I see on Alexa that ranks site traffic popularity etc shows a catestrophic fall, why?

    1) 72 teams from Champs to League 2 lose their pages and chat capabilities
    2) No interst in anything apart from the Prem, not even Champions League, Europa FA Cup, League cup ar covered except a scant reference or post. ESPN is better than Teamtalk.
    3) most of the content is rumour mill stuff off the back pages and totally useless.

    In summary there are probably good reasons why TT has opted out of being a serious content contributor but when it is gone we will remember what it was like in the golden days, I give TT to the end of the season before they fold they can blame the BBC, club websites with payable pay per view content and ESPN or whoever.

    If I were in charge of TT I would give the company a complete makeover and make it profitable, it is possible for TT to do something other than die.

    I don’t know that TT is going to last until the end of the season. There is such a lack of banter or interesting comment that this is going to die a natural death. It is actually more than a bit boring.

    Even with the Premier League sites it is noticeable that only a few of the clubs have a steady stream of contributions and in those it seems like a few people are bouncing chat amongst themselves so that it is like a private conversation going on.

    Anyway can I just point out that Walsall are within spitting distance of the top of League 1. Heady days indeed!

    The others are just keeping top spot nice and warm ready for us to come and take it! TT really badly sucks now. On the old TT there would have been a discussion about the great and now sadly late Jimmy Hill, where as now there was one article and it soon disappeared off the page.

    Sadly there is nothing on here that you can’t get on sky sports website now. Infact sky sports has better L1 and L2 coverage. It’s been a great website for so many years but is now sadly defunct. I can’t even comment on many stories because it says I am not logged in – but I clearly am hence this post. RIP Teamtalk – it’s been a great over the years but now it’s time to let go

    Early February and the Saddlers are a couple of points ahead of the 3rd placed team with a game in hand. Is getting little Walsall into the Championship just a pipedream? Hope it lasts!

    Oh dear! Things are going a little pear shaped.

    The value of a good Manager / Head Coach not getting the best out of the available playing staff is in full evidence as Sean O’Driscoll parts company with Walsall after just 16 games in charge – the last six of which Walsall lost. Apparently, he made some very stubborn team selection decisions…………..

    Hmmm where have I heard that before?

    All is not lost yet – we can at least make the play-offs………..

    C’ant we?

    Come on Guys!!

    Oh Well. It was fun while it lasted. Losing Dean Smith was a disaster.
