Ashley Grimes' rotten luck in front of goal
continued as Walsall's 0-0 draw at Gillingham left them with one win
from nine matches
.
Grimes, without a goal since April 2013,
volleyed straight at on-loan Gills goalkeeper Stephen Bywater early on
after good play from James Baxendale.
The 27-year-old then flicked a shot at Bywater when any contact on
Anthony Forde's teasing cross looked like it would result in a goal for
the Saddlers.
The visitors, who have not won away since a 2-0 defeat of Bradford on
March 25, should have broken the deadlock 11 minutes from time when the
on-rushing Baxendale headed wide from another Forde delivery.
Joint-leading scorer Cody McDonald went closest for the Gills, who remain unbeaten in the league at Priestfield this season.
The former Norwich striker had an effort blocked by Andy Butler and
then shot narrowly wide shortly before the hour-mark having been played
through by captain Doug Loft.
John Egan's header was deflected wide and winger Jermaine McGlashan threatened with a cross-turned-shot.
