Yeovil Town and manager Russell Slade were left fuming at the lack of luck they seem to get against Walsall.
"I'm glad I've seen the back of Walsall this season because we dominated the home fixture and today we didn't deserve to lose."
Slade's mood was further deepened with the loss of keeper Steve Mildenhall who looks to be out for a lengthy period after sustaining possible knee ligament damage in a clash with Walsall's Tommy Mooney.
Young 18 year old full back Craig Alcock stepped up to the plate in front of the noisy home support and apart from an early drop did well and could not be blamed for either of the goals.
Slade gave debuts to on loan Simon Church from Reading and Liam Bridcutt from Chelsea, while Nathan Jones returned at the back from suspension as The Glovers lines up in a 4-5-1 formation.
It was another loan signing, Jamie Peters, from Ipswich who carved out their first chance when a good interchange with Andy Kirk saw the new striker test Ince from close range.
Walsall had a lot of the possession but with Matty Rose in superb form in the midfield Yeovil were holding their high flying opponents and looking the more dangerous on the break.
The Saddlers first real chance saw Sonko force Mildenhall into a flying save to his left to keep out his fierce shot.
Just after the half hour mark Matty Rose tried his luck from distance and saw his speculative lob almost catch out Ince as it nearly dropped in under the cross bar.
Yeovil's day though started to turn sour in the 37th. minute when Tommy Mooney tried to stop Mildenhall reaching a routine save causing the giant keeper to go down awkwardly as his knee bent backwards.
Mildenhall immediately gave out a scream of pain and it was quite clear right away that he was in serious trouble.
After a lengthy stoppage, much to the annoyance of the home fans, the keeper carried on but it was clear he was only carrying on until the half time break.
Eighteen year old Alcock made a shaky start as his replacement dropping a free kick from Holmes which fortunately Terry Skiverton kicked away from the danger area.
Just after the hour Yeovil lived dangerously as Nicholls set up chances for Kevin Betsy and Tommy Mooney and then Sonko lashed a shot over the bar, much to Alcock's relief.
But the youngster was doing well considering and his goal kicking was superb despite the constant baiting from the home crowd.
There was little that Alcock could do with the Saddler's first goal though in the 67th. minute.
Sonko found the unmarked Holmes and he had the simple task of tapping home from 12 yards with Alcock beaten and exposed.
Russell Slade threw on Lloyd Owusu for a promising, but tiring Jamie Peters, in a hope of upsetting the home defence and the big Ghanian striker did test Ince with a volley but it went straight at the keeper.
With Yeovil pushing up in a desperate search for an equaliser Walsall caught the Glovers with the inevitable sucker punch in the 90th. minute.
A defence cutting pass found Nichols whose shot was saved well by Alcock but the ball ran loose to Betsy who had the easiest task of knocking the ball in from close range.
So another defeat for Russell Slade's men but this time there were definite signs that the tide is turning.
Peters looks a class prospect as does Liam Bridcutt and with Matty Rose in that sort of form the midfield looks a much more concise unit.
As the manager said at his Press Conference: "We just need that win and it doesn't really matter how it comes."
On the evidence of this showing it could well be on Tuesday night against Northampton.
