Saddlers to sell Butler

Walsall have made striker Martin Butler available for transfer with immediate effect.
The 33-year-old has made six appearances for the Saddlers this season but has been told he is now surplus to requirements.
Butler, whose present contract expires at the end of the season, rejected a move to Peterborough United before the transfer window closed in August.
"At the present time the club is not prepared to commit itself to offering the player an extension to his contract, which expires in June 2008," read a statement on the club's official website.
"With that in mind, both parties have agreed that the player should be made available for transfer."
The former Reading, Cambridge United and Rotherham hitman has scored 13 times in 53 appearances for the Saddlers.
