Arizona Posted 27 February, 2010 Share Posted 27 February, 2010 Biggest win since: 4-0 at home to Hull in '07 Last time we scored 5: 5-2 vs Barnsley in '07 Last time we had 4 different scorers in a match: 6-0 at Wolves (Saga, Surman, Best +o.g.) Last time 4 Saints players scored: 5-2 vs Yeovil in '06 (Dyer, Jones, BWP, Skacel) Just one question. What's Saints biggest ever win after falling behind?

Goalie66 Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 Tony Knapp og after a minute Now that game brings back memories.We were 1-2 down as well and all the goals were scored in the first 60 minutes. Chivers 4,Paine 2, O'Brien,Sydenham 2? were the scorers, I think. Great game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 Wolves 9-3? I think we fell behind twice in that match as somebody has just said 2 2 after twelve minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 (edited) Wolves 9-3? Think you're right there but many seem to have conveniently forgotten that AP's teams have actually EARNED 51 POINTS so far this season, which would have put them 8th...AND we have two games in hand on teams around us. SO we areain in-form team. Most seasons, at least one of the leading teams dramatically losse form round about now (which could mean that either Leeds or Norwich may even drop down into the play-off zone). AND at least one of the (current) top six will fall away and finish around 9th/10th. (For us we let's hope it's; Huddf'd, MK Dons or Bristol Rovers). SO WHAT'S THAT GOT TO DO WITH SAINTS' 41 points? Quite simply nothing is impossible and if we keep picking up wins until May. Those of us with very long memories recall that in both our prev. promotion seasons we looked nothing special at this time of the season. In 65-66, we drew a ghastly home game 1-1 with Rotherham and headlines read " Saints can cancel the promotion champagne now " ..after whcih we proceeded to finísh the season with a 10 game unbeaten run.,,and finished second behind Man.City. Similar story in 77-78 when we lost a home game 2-3 to lowly Millwall but finished with only one defeat in the last 14 games, and second behind Bolton. While we certainly won't finish second, the whole concept of getting 5th/6th place is not beyond the realms of possibility if we continue winning, and a few more 5 goal wins won't do our already exellent GD any harm either.

david in sweden Posted 1 March, 2010 Share Posted 1 March, 2010 yes I remember - it was a Martin Chivers hat-trick, I think...and Rochdale were a very lowly placed side ..even then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minty Posted 2 March, 2010 Share Posted 2 March, 2010 OK, so I was bored - 8th Feb 1995 when we beat Luton 6-0 in the FA Cup: Heaney, Hughes, Le Tiss x 2, Magilton, Monkou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona Posted 2 March, 2010 Author Share Posted 2 March, 2010 Come on then, time for some updated stats...! Yes, that inept display of s--te at the weekend has been somewhat blown out the water. Biggest league win since the 6-0 at Wolves. Biggest home win since the 6-1 vs Tranmere in the Worthington Cup. You'd have to go back a few decades to find stats which top tonight's show and I really can't be arsed. 5-0... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycrow Posted 2 March, 2010 Share Posted 2 March, 2010 When was the last time we scored 5 goals in consecutive games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 2 March, 2010 Share Posted 2 March, 2010 Just been looking back through Soccerbase, and we scored 5 (or more) in consecutive home league games in the 1983/1984 season. 28th April 1984: Saints 8-2 Coventry 7th May 1984: Saints 5-0 Tottenham However, there was an away game sandwiched between them, a 1-1 draw at Stoke. Will look further back for actual consecutive games tomorrow, unless someone gets there before me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 2 March, 2010 Share Posted 2 March, 2010 isn't it great that we're setting new grounds/matching records from decades ago, in terms of positives! it's something we haven't been doing for as long as I've been on this earth anyway. Conclusive proof if ever needed, that Pards and Co are doing a fantastic job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
