Jon Whitney wants Walsall to adapt style
Boss Jon Whitney says he is eager for Walsall to play more attractive football – starting at Newport County today.
The Saddlers travel to take on Mike Flynn's side in the first round of the FA Cup with the game kicking off at 5.15pm so it can be viewed on Welsh television channel S4C.
Whitney's side have so far endured an inconsistent campaign that has often seen them play more direct if they are struggling to break down their opposition.
That change in style has frustrated some supporters who have been used to the Saddlers playing a passing game over the past five years.
And after falling to defeat against Southend last weekend, Whitney believes his team needs to start performing better on the ball.
