Former Burnley manager Jimmy Mullen is set to take the reins at Walsall until the end of the season following the departure of Richard Money.

Mullen, who won promotion to the First Division during his five-year tenure at Turf Moor, was Money's number two at the Banks's Stadium and takes charge of the final two games.

Money, who took charge in May 2006, left after falling out with the Saddlers board.
