Walsall boss Mat Sadler has insisted his side is still in the hunt for promotion following his side's five-nil thrashing away to Milton Keynes Dons on Good Friday.
Despite creating a few early openings, the Saddlers simply had no answer for their opponents as they made it four games without a win, with their Play-Off hopes surely beginning to fade.
Speaking to the assembled media, including representatives of the Express & Star, Sadler said: "I thought we had a couple of really good opportunities in the first half to go one-nil up.
"You know they're a very good team, they've got the best home record in the division for a reason so you want to take your chances when they come.
"Unfortunately, we didn't. Then the penalty was a bit of a turning point when maybe we just need to do our basics and put the ball out of play.
"So that was frustrating and then the next thirty minutes became a bit of a blur. We didn't get the outcome that we wanted but we're still in a position to attack the final seven games.
"I knew nothing was going to be decided today."
