Thats not very good. Especially this season with 5 losses in a row. Is it a mental thing or an annoying coincidence?

 

And also, as a team who got relegated (and ie should be one of the stronger teams in the championship), 4 wins from 21 is just downright sh*t isn't it? People watching footy on the TV must enjoy betting against us nowadays.

No - it'll be SIX telly defeats in a row. And in some of them we were lucky to get nil. Southampton football club are an embarrassment to its supporters.

 

Luck has nothing to do with Saints.....We have done very well to get... Nil

in some of these games.....The way we are improving I can see us getting many more good Nil scores......Nice plan/tactics.... Pretty Nil scores.

 

To come second is not always to come last..........Rupert Lowe....2008

I've discovered the upside to abject poverty !

 

Being unable to afford Sky Sports I've not actually seen any of the above TV defeats (the FA Cup Bristol City horror show on the BBC excepted) - so carrying on with this mind I now intend to donate all my cash to charity so that I can't afford a season ticket for next season either .

Doubtless this will spare me further mental anguish and cure me of the chronic Saints related clinical depression I've suffered with ever since Steve Wigley first darkened our collective doorsteps .

Out of interest , were most of those games Midweek ?

Ipswich 2-2 Southampton

Southampton 0-0 Reading

Leeds 2-1 Southampton

Hull 1-1 Southampton

Southampton 0-1 Sheff Utd

Southampton 0-0 Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace 0-2 Southampton

Cardiff 1-0 Southampton

Southampton 4-3 Birmingham

Southampton 1-1 Crystal Palace (boxing day)

Southampton 2-1 Sheff Wed

Coventry 2-1 Southampton

Southampton 2-2 Cardiff

Derby 2-3 Southampton (play off)

Southampton 1-1 Colchester

Preston 5-1 Southampton

Bristol City 2-1 Southampton

Wins 7, Draws 17, Losses 13

Played 37, Points 38

For 39, Against 49, GD -10

 

INTERESTINGLY, we won 5 of those 7 midweek games in 06/07, play off season. WITHOUT that season the record is Wins 2, Draws 15, Losses 12.

 

So looking at that, we arent very good at all in midweek!!! 38pts from 37 would certainly relegate us!!!

It was Bristol Rovers not City (which makes it even worse)

Lets face it, it is way past bed time for most of our players, and they don't like missing their bed time story :rolleyes:

 

Although a bit older, BWP gets a bit nervous everytime he sees a camera pointing in his direction ;-)

 

Can one of you stattos come up with a list of results tabulated with away shirts worn? Have we got more points away from home in our famous red n white stripes than at SMS this season :(

 

It seems to me that it doesn't matter if it is on teh box or not, day or night, weekend or mid week, if there is a letter Y in the day then we are pretty much screwed :cool:
