Stel speaks to Walsall fan Dave Evans ahead of the club’s first ever Wembley appearance.
Dave provides a bit of a history lesson on the club, describing the highs and lows of promotion and relegation, the Paul Merson era (albeit one season) and the anticipated Johnson’s Paint Trophy final against Bristol City where almost 30,000 Walsall fans are heading to the home of English football.
Shoot The Defence are proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership with Haven House Children’s Hospice.
We are helping the charity with their fundraising event on the 17th of May at Brisbane Road – home of Leyton Orient FC, where a team of celebrities will face Tottenham Hotspur Legends.
