what about those we were losing at HT

 

How many did we turn around?

Over the same time period:

 

23 Apr 2011: Brighton 1-2 Saints (1-0 HT)

12 Apr 2011: Rochdale 2-0 Saints (2-0 HT)

2 Apr 2011: Saints 3-2 MK Dons (0-1 HT)

22 Jan 2011: Tranmere 2-0 Saints (1-0 HT)

11 Dec 2010: Saints 0-2 Brentford (0-2 HT)

13 Nov 2010: Carlisle 3-2 Saints (2-0 HT)

30 Oct 2010: Notts County 1-3 Saints (1-0 HT)

16 Oct 2010: Huddersfield 2-0 Saints (2-0 HT)

4 Sep 2010: Saints 0-2 Rochdale (0-1 HT)

1 May 2010: Gillingham 2-1 Saints (1-0 HT)

 

So a somewhat more mixed record when we've been trailing at half-time. P10 W3 L7

Nice sets of stats - Steve.

There must be a negative psychological effect to going in at HT ..and being behind a goal ... or two -even if there are 45 monutes more to play.

I know about second half comebacks and all that ..and we've had a few, but it does underline the importance of getting the first goal / and - or leading at HT. If you're behind ...the game may not be over, but the manager must make changes (tactics / players) earlier... if the game is to be won.

 

Leading at HT is a real + factor but it's equally important NOT to " switch off " in the second half.

Connolly's goal on Saturday was the real killer, even though the earlier ones looked more spectacular.

Going way back to our PL days, I remember in a televised game (either Brum or Villa) where the tater said it had been some ridiculous number of games where when we went a goal behind we had lost - ie something daft like 2 years where we concede and had never come back to win (maybe even draw) itw as certainly the worst in the PL

 

So a major turn-round from those days

Yes we did have a record like that, the scariest record I always remember Is that If Ian Rush ever scores Liverpool win, went into a hundred +

Not lost when winning at half time will continue...... I think it will be gone this season though!
