Here are our player ratings from the game...
5. Lewis Gordon 6
Looked after possession with a 94% success rate and did okay defensively. Created a chance for Colclough in space with a lovely pass inside. Needed more thrust from him going forwards but he improved in that regard after the break and one cross invited Mandeville to have a volley which was blocked. Photo: jason chadwick
6. Jenson Metcalfe 6
Spirited showing with energy and enthusiasm. The effort was there but the quality was perhaps a touch off. Another good experience for him in his career, though. It was a tough ask against a physical and strong Walsall side. Photo: Ben Roberts Photo
7. John Fleck 6
Probably a bit hit-and-miss. Played some quality passes. Gave it away with others. Talked, pointed and instructed those around him through the game. Photo: Tina Jenner
8. Tom Naylor 6
Huffed and puffed. Had a big chance to score early in the second-half after he did well to get on the end of Mandeville's cross but Simkin parried away. Helped Town stand up to the physical challenge, winning five aerial duels. Photo: Tina Jenner
