Mattis and Bradley lead Walsall exit

Dwayne Mattis and Mark Bradley have headed the cull at Walsall after the duo were not offered new contracts with the Saddlers.

The club have also released Netan Sansara, Peter Till, Josh O'Keefe, Sam Adkins and Richard Davies in their end-of-season clearout.

But Manny Smith has penned a new two-year deal at the Banks's Stadium while captain Mark Hughes, Alex Nicholls and Richard Taundry have been offered new contracts.

Midfielders Mattis and Bradley are the star names on the Saddlers departure list, after meeting with manager Chris Hutchings this morning.

He said: "At this time of year some difficult decisions have to be made, but we would like to thank every player for their hard work and effort during their time at Walsall."
