Walsall fell to successive home league defeats for the first time in two-and-a-half years after they were beaten 3-1 by play-off contenders Grimsby Town on Saturday. 

Ellis Harrison opened the scoring inside six minutes but Jayden Luker levelled midway into the first half with a precise finish after Walsall switched off at a set piece. 

Danny Rose fired them ahead from the spot on the cusp of half-time and Luker bagged his brace in the second half to compound Walsall's misery.
