Walsall boss Jon Whitney apologised to his team's supporters after the 1-0 defeat at Coventry City.
Whitney told the Express & Star: “The first 45 minutes was way below par.
“It had an end of season feel to it and we have done everything we could to prevent that.
“You can’t be that far below the standards we set and expect to get something from the game.
“I would like to apologise to the travelling fans. That first half performance was not acceptable.
“I apologise. Second half I thought we gave it a go. We huffed and we puffed but we didn’t create any real clear chances."
