In response to a public outcry, Reevaldo has been stripped of his Man-of-the-Match Award from last Sunday's match against AFC Zeebras. After "If Selected..." announced the award on Sunday evening, the front door mat here at IS Towers has disappeared under a deluge of angry mail demanding that Dav Gautam be acclaimed the real MOM.

Apart from the factual evidence of Gautam's great performance that included two stunning goals, the rumour mill is a-whirr with whisperings regarding illegal performance enhancers used by the Walsall Wizard. Apparently Reevaldo's star rating on Sunday was greatly aided by a constant stream of guidance and instructions from a knowledgeable supporter on the side-line. It is alleged that the South African gentleman was constantly helping Reevaldo out by telling him where to run and whom to mark.
