benjii Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Played 15 Won 5 Drawn 4 Lost 6 19 points from 15. 1.26 points a game. 24 points over a home season. Needs to improve a lot if we are going to avoid a relegation scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChudSaint Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Try to bring my kids up from Cornwall with a 4 hour drive each way half a dozen times a season to avoid the big club brainwashing around here. Vowed never again after witnessing the drab 0-0 draw with Newcastle under Hughes last year but the Hasenhuttl revolution made me reconsider. So far they’ve managed 4 visits and witnessed defeats against West Ham, Cardiff, Liverpool and last night against Bournemouth, their enthusiasm is waining...

Think it’s Arsenal, Spurs (v lucky!), Everton, Fulham, Wolves. Defeat to Cardiff, draw with Huddersfield, draw and a loss to The Cherries....

Saints foreva Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Our home form has been disgraceful since the second half of the 2016/17 season. Bet our season ticket prices are the worst value for money in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldNick Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Dont start the antoi Ralphstuff Benjii, there are 2 people to really blame and thats mainly Les Reed and perhaps Ross Wilson. The squad is very muuch like the season we went down a team of ok journeymen footballers with a poor defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The squad is very muuch like the season we went down a team of ok journeymen footballers with a poor defence. It’s not “anti-Ralph”. I’m supportive of him. But it’s worth observing that our home form is a problem which he hasn’t fixed yet. Our squad is poor but it’s good enough to eek out more than 1.26 ppg at home.

Heisenberg Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 But it’s worth observing that our home form is a problem which he hasn’t fixed yet Are you expecting St Mary's to become a sudden fortress? The 15 before RH arrived our record at home was.. Won 1 Drawn 8 Lost 6 You need to be more patient and give RH credit for the significant improvement on his very poor predecessors We were almost at rock bottom and the recovery was always going to take time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doddisalegend Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Think it’s Arsenal, Spurs (v lucky!), Everton, Fulham, Wolves. Defeat to Cardiff, draw with Huddersfield, draw and a loss to The Cherries.... That's the crux of it there. We seem to do better against better sides because they come to SMS to out play us because Ralph's press and quick counter works better against more open sides. Against the sides who come to SMS for a point we really struggle to break them down when they put lots of players behind the ball. Given that our best hope this season looks likely to be Moussa Djenepo the only player, in our squad, who seems to have that bit of quality to break sides down.

Saints foreva Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Do you have one? Packed it in after the Pellegrino/Hughes season after 15 or so seasons. Great decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obelisk Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Let's face it. St Mary's is a pretty sh!t stadium. Too nice for opposing teams and nothing like the Dell atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 21 September, 2019 Share Posted 21 September, 2019 Reason why we lose so many games at home is because we over commit on the attack. Teams know how to break us down especially when it’s our corner. Away from home we are better because we are a little more cautious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing like the Dell but quite like many PL grounds and nothing to do with our poor form, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except when we had 20 consecutive home wins in L1/championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
