Walsall's James Baxendale came back to haunt former club Doncaster Rovers with the first goal as the Saddlers recorded a second successive home win.

The midfielder finished a good move with a shot from inside the box to open the scoring in first-half injury time.

He then started the move that led to the Saddlers' second, fired in by Tom Bradshaw from Romaine Sawyers' pass.

Former Wolves winger Anthony Forde scored the third on 64 minutes with a free-kick that went in off the post.

Doncaster Rovers boss Paul Dickov told 91热爆 Radio Sheffield:

"I'm a little bit embarrassed by the performance to tell you the truth.

"I want to apologise to the fans, because they were brilliant and they are probably the only plus point.

"The players know exactly how we feel and if I can change things around I will.

"We set standards all the time in training and we fell well short of that today."
