Colin Lee has today made Stefan Oakes, Mark Wright, Nick Smith and Andy Bishop available for loan. It is hoped that any loan deal will provide much needed first team football for the quartet as they try and force their way back into the first team picture at Walsall. Colin Lee told the official site:

"We have circulated the names to other clubs. It is important for us to get them playing regular first-team football with a competitive edge".

"Stefan Oakes in particular has been unfortunate. He came here in the summer but hasn't had the chance to get involved with the first-team as much as we would like so far. He is a very good player who, in the right system, would do very well".

"I need him to be playing regularly at the first-team level now in the view of the forthcoming hectic Christmas schedule of matches where I am sure he will have a role to play for us."
