The visitors played in blue..their captain was former WWFC player, Gonzales

The Wood’s spirits are on a high this evening.

Its sweet when the plan comes together. Good to see the Wood on song again.

And more rejoicing. How would Heather respond?

Good grief..so nearly a goal to heather in the first minute of the game..a dibbly, scrable to secure and clear by the home goalkeeper.

Following the disappointment of being booted out of the FA Cup by Tividale last Saturday, Walsall Wood were not daunted and returned in fighting form on Tuesday last (22nd August 2017) to hammer Leicester side Heather St. John at Oak Park.

David Evans and Russell Smith were there: David took some fine photos and Russell did his wondrous video thing: footage at the foot of the post.

Wood on top throughout this match with a good, solid and confident performance.

The home side demonstrated strength and accuracy in their play, although Heather scored one goal and were down to ten men in the second half they still managed to turn up the pressure… but Walsall Wood played well within their ability.

The ground saw a good natured, enthusiastic crowd of home and away fans who were treated to a display of fine soccer.
