Walsall boss aims to bounce back

The Saddlers have lost their last two games after being ahead, leaving Merson bitterly disappointed.

They currently sit 15th in League One, but the former Arsenal and England midfielder is still confident his side can push for promotion.

Merson said: "There is still a long way to go but I haven't seen anything at the moment that scares me. It's all about confidence and if someone could put a run together they could well go on to do a 'Luton'.

"To win promotion is hard work, though, and takes plenty of effort and concentration over a long period of time from everyone involved.

"Hopefully we can return to winning ways on Saturday and launch a positive run of results."
