Sills hopes to fit for Tuesday

Tim Sills suffered a nasty head wound in the second half of this afternoon's game but hopes to be fit for Tuesday's Cup tie.

"I managed to get a pretty nasty head injury," Sills told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"I ran in, didn't feel too bad, a lot of blood was pouring out at the time so I knew I had to get stitches.

"With two or three stitches I was ready to come back out but the gaffer decided to make a substitution which with hindsight, the way I'm feeling at the moment, wasn't the worst decision in the world.

"We'll see how it is in the morning. Hopefully there won't be too much of a lump, or too much bruising or concussion or anything like that."

Before his injury Sills had an excellent header well saved by the Walsall goalkeeper.

"The header the keeper saved for them was possibly one of the best saves I've ever seen.

"As soon as I got it - it was perfect contact. Exactly where I wanted it to go and I was almost off celebrating. Doesn't seem that my luck is in too much at the moment.

"We'll pick ourselves up and get ready for Tuesday."
