Arizona Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 We will have as many League goals by Christmas as we scored in the whole of last season. Just think it's something the players should consider if they find themselves 6-0 up with 20 minutes left. A few more random league goal stats: We are 3 League goals (that's 1 game ) away from topping last years home goals tally. (20 - 23) It has taken Lambert 16 games to match last years top league scorer (DMG, 12 goals in 46 apps) Lambert has also matched last season's top assister (Surman 6). However he has 3 in other competitions compared to Surman's 0. James and Lallana have already matched their leagues assists from last year (3 each). Scheiderlin has 2. 2 more than last year. Schneiderlin has the most shots without scoring (19). Papa Waigo is the most accurate shooter, 90% (9/10) of his efforts have been on target. Mellis is the least accurate with 16% (1/6) Our Best assassins (goals per shot ratio) are Harding (0.29) Lambert (0.25), Connolly (0.22), Waigo (0.2) Lallana (0.19) This compares to last year... Saganowski (0.17), Surman (0.12), BWP (0.11), McGoldrick (0.1), Euell (0.05)
sadoldgit Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Which goes to show that Pardew has come in and sorted out many of the problems that we had before (thanks in no small measure to the new investment). Rome wasn't built in a day but we are finally back on track and long may the revival continue.
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 McGoldrick (0.1) I am so glad we managed to shift him in the summer. Anyone know how he's doing for Forest?
Weston Saint Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 McGoldrick (0.1) I am so glad we managed to shift him in the summer. Anyone know how he's doing for Forest?His goal yesterday put Forest 3rd in the Championship
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 3 goals from 19 apperances according to soccerbase.
St Marco Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Another stat is we have now won as many league games this year as we had for the whole of last season
Arizona Posted 13 December, 2009 Author Posted 13 December, 2009 His goal yesterday put Forest 3rd in the Championship 3 goals from 19 apperances according to soccerbase. Yes, not all that exciting considering he and Lambert went for pretty much the same cash. Dexter has more goals for NF this season. Ex Saints League Goals this season: Rasiak - 6 Blackstock - 5 Jones - 5 Skacel -3 DMG - 3 Euell - 3 Beattie - 2 Crouch - 2 Ormerod - 2 Fuller - 1 Walcott - 1
mikec Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Also if we beat Leeds 8-0 it would finally be revenge for that match in the 70s when Leeds under Don Revie beat us 7-0. It might even stop the BBC always showing that clip where the Leeds players just pass it around for about 10 minutes without us getting a touch which seems to be the standard "look how good Leeds were in the 70s" clip.
St Landrew Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Tbh Arizona, I wish you wouldn't tempt fate, by posting this kind of thread. Even though I don't believe in fate..!
Glasgow_Saint Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 His goal yesterday put Forest 3rd in the Championship People on here didnt want BILLY DAVIES as he is apparently rubbish
St Landrew Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 People on here didnt want BILLY DAVIES as he is apparently rubbish Don't make sweeping statements, GS. I would have had Billy Davies at St Marys in a heartbeat, last season; and I suspect there were plenty more Saints fans who felt the same.
Arizona Posted 13 December, 2009 Author Posted 13 December, 2009 FWIW. DMG scores 0.16 goals per shot this season. Still not as good as Saints top 5. Euell has improved too, but only has 0.13.
DT Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Don't make sweeping statements, GS. I would have had Billy Davies at St Marys in a heartbeat, last season; and I suspect there were plenty more Saints fans who felt the same. Me too as I posted so many times I bored everyone to death. ps if we beat Leeds 8-0 I will eat the Itchen Bridge pps another win/clean sheet without Davis. Not a coincidence.
hypochondriac Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Yes, not all that exciting considering he and Lambert went for pretty much the same cash. Dexter has more goals for NF this season. Ex Saints League Goals this season: Rasiak - 6 Blackstock - 5 Jones - 5 Skacel -3 DMG - 3 Euell - 3 Beattie - 2 Crouch - 2 Ormerod - 2 Fuller - 1 Walcott - 1 Best has 9.

Arizona Posted 13 December, 2009 Author Posted 13 December, 2009 That list isn't exhaustive. Just the ex players I could think of still playing.
John B Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 McGoldrick (0.1) I am so glad we managed to shift him in the summer. Anyone know how he's doing for Forest? Yes he scored the winner yesterday could be in the Premiership next season
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Yes he scored the winner yesterday could be in the Premiership next season Hopefully he can keep up his impressive scoring return if they do get promoted.

Soooo f'in annoying!!
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 If we beat Leeds 8-0 I will run on the pitch at Elland Road naked.
Saint_clark Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Yes, not all that exciting considering he and Lambert went for pretty much the same cash. Dexter has more goals for NF this season. Ex Saints League Goals this season: Rasiak - 6 Blackstock - 5 Jones - 5 Skacel -3 DMG - 3 Euell - 3 Beattie - 2 Crouch - 2 Ormerod - 2 Fuller - 1 Walcott - 1 So you'd say that Jones is doing the best, considering he's playing at the highest level. FWIW McGoldrick played most of the season on RM and CM for Forest, he has only recently been moved up top.
Matthew Le God Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Arizona is conveniently forgetting that alot of his stats are comparing players/teams in the Premiership and Championship to players/teams in League One. Big difference playing Man Utd in the Premeirship or Newcastle in the Championship to playing Wycombe Wanderers in League One.
Legod Third Coming Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Arizona is conveniently forgetting that alot of his stats are comparing players/teams in the Premiership and Championship to players/teams in League One. Big difference playing Man Utd in the Premeirship or Newcastle in the Championship to playing Wycombe Wanderers in League One. Although the players are obviously of the standard of the league in which they are playing and surrounded by the same standard of players....

Of course I'd rather have Jones than Best, I'm just stating the facts.
suewhistle Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 What about Nile RAnger, how many has he got?
Stud mark of doom Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Also if we beat Leeds 8-0 it would finally be revenge for that match in the 70s when Leeds under Don Revie beat us 7-0. It might even stop the BBC always showing that clip where the Leeds players just pass it around for about 10 minutes without us getting a touch which seems to be the standard "look how good Leeds were in the 70s" clip. Maybe we should go for 8-0 and keeping the ball for 11 minutes - with one of our goals actually ending the move. AP's talk of us 'letting our hair down' reminded me that our keeper had extremely long hair that day. Someone told me once that he had vowed not to get his hair cut until he kept a clean sheet.
Thedelldays Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Although the players are obviously of the standard of the league in which they are playing and surrounded by the same standard of players.... not really...unless we went out and paid a huge amount for Henry the last time we were in the premiership
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 What about Nile RAnger, how many has he got? just one, got his first goal in their last game.
trousers Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 If we beat Leeds 8-0 I will run on the pitch at Elland Road naked. And I will milk a badger. Also naked.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 I will eat my own head if we win 8-0.
Draino76 Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Taking into account all of the evidence above; I'm going for the 8-0 to Saints. COYFR!
St Chalet Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Technically we could lose 9-8 and still achieve that feat.
trousers Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 Technically we could lose 9-8 and still achieve that feat. I will do more than naked badger milking if that happens...
Arizona Posted 13 December, 2009 Author Posted 13 December, 2009 Technically we could lose 9-8 and still achieve that feat. Haven't you heard? We're keeping clean sheets now.
Red and White Army Posted 13 December, 2009 Posted 13 December, 2009 And I will milk a badger. Also naked. The badger will be naked, or you will be naked?
St_Tel49 Posted 14 December, 2009 Posted 14 December, 2009 Me too as I posted so many times I bored everyone to death. ps if we beat Leeds 8-0 I will eat the Itchen Bridge pps another win/clean sheet without Davis. Not a coincidence. Fries with that? ;-)

It might even stop the BBC always showing that clip where the Leeds players just pass it around for about 10 minutes without us getting a touch which seems to be the standard "look how good Leeds were in the 70s" clip. I was thinking a similar thing the other day. Few on the Saints staff will remember that (and a lot of the players weren't even born then,) but it's still a painful scar in the memories of many older fans. In those days, the mere prospect of travelling to Elland Road was a nightmare and some of their players were harder than their fans.

They were so busy laughing at us after the game, that they forgot to chase us round the car park. :mad:
trousers Posted 14 December, 2009 Posted 14 December, 2009 The badger will be naked, or you will be naked? Both. Of course. Have you ever tried milking a fully clothed badger? Ridiculous thought.
unionhotel Posted 15 December, 2009 Posted 15 December, 2009 They were so busy laughing at us after the game, that they forgot to chase us round the car park. :mad: I was there that day, along with a coach-load of Saints fans and believe me they chased us around before, during and after the game. I came out of that game covered in bruises and phlegm. I've hated them ever since! Without doubt, the most humiliating match I've been to so ANY win over them will be good.
Arizona Posted 17 December, 2009 Author Posted 17 December, 2009 The 2 goals at Norwich have put us ahead of last year's goal tally in all competitions. With 6 in the FA Cup, 6 in the JPT and 3 in the League Cup, we now have 53. Last year we had 6 League Cup and 46 League goals, 52 in total. W00T!!!
