spyinthesky Posted yesterday at 08:34 Posted yesterday at 08:34 Assuming defeats at home to Man City and Arsenal (by some margin, I expect), Saints will then have won the grand total of 3 home games out of 38 in the last two Premiership campaigns. Whilst the club had a habit of relegation fights at The Dell, we were generally competitive at home but comparatively crap away. In the last two seasons more points have been won away from home than at St Marys. Perhaps the lady who turned up the dispel the gremlins who apparently put a spell on the stadium, as it was supposed to have been built on sacred burial ground, could pay a return visit ahead of next season🙄 As things stand, the club is likely to record 36 points out of a total 228 available during our last two flirtations with the Prem. Appalling and no wonder the number of season tickets, which have generally been sold in decent numbers, will plummet next year. 3
Dr Who? Posted yesterday at 08:41 Posted yesterday at 08:41 We have been in the Premier League, we are not Scottish or gone back to 2007! All that aside I think SMS has been a toxic place, but probably more in the last relegation. This time around we have just been a terrible side in a league that is far too strong for us. I doubt Leicester are looking much better, and then Ipswich.

obelisk Posted yesterday at 09:08 Posted yesterday at 09:08 SMS is a pretty bland stadium and nothing like The Dell to help make opponents feel the pressure. On the contrary, I suspect opposition teams look forward to having a pleasant day out at St Mary's. 2

Flawed. There’s relatively little toxicity inside the stadium, more apathy. Most of the toxicity comes from non-match going fans. Those commenting on the match thread after yesterday’s game that had clearly been at St Mary’s were more pragmatic. Edited yesterday at 09:13 by TheAlehouseBrawlers Typo 6
for_heaven's_Saint Posted yesterday at 09:16 Posted yesterday at 09:16 It hasn't been called the Premiership since 2007 so I actually think our Premiership home record is probably not that bad.
LuckyNumber7 Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago 1 hour ago, Farmer Saint said: Considering the toxicity of a lot of our fans (which is shown on this forum), it's probably a pretty shit place to play. There's far more toxicity on this forum than there is at games. In fact given how utterly pathetic we've been over a fairly long period in the PL, I'd say there's very little toxicity and the fans have been amazingly supportive. We're shit at home because the team is shit, not because the fans are toxic. 5
Appy Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago (edited) Our Premier League home record since the start of the 2017/18 season. Played 131 Won 32 Drawn 35 Lost 64 Scored 150 Conceded 222 That includes a chunk of when we were half decent behind closed doors. Edited 23 hours ago by Appy 1

Since Ronald left, still good at home 2015/16. Under Puel definitely more of an away team, under the dreadful Pellegrino awful anywhere with a good squad with a manager scared witless to afraid to attack, and the away record was much better than the home under Ralph. Similar home and way record last season but not as clinical as should have been at home eg Rotherham to over-passing and wasting the ball and time when having a narrow lead.

LiberalCommunist Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago Not sure why the autopsy has began already, I reckon someone should just grab the defibrillator, because this shit isn't over yet. We have one more point to grind. Then, lets tear the place down with a fucking riot. And people being triggered by a picture of Elon. Oh my. Give your head a wobble. If Alex is wrong, debate him. Not key his tesla.

We're shit at home because the team is shit, not because the fans are toxic. So true. West Ham away and Fulham at home - despite the fact we were already relegated - the support was immense! Supportive and loud. 1
Football Special Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago Takeaway from that is don't bother getting a Premier league season ticket

This simply isn’t true. This reads like you don’t attend matches. If you do, I don’t know what you’re hearing or seeing.

I don't attend matches - you're correct - haven't been for a long time as was previously not in the country, then COVID, then now don't get the time due to my profession. I was using the state of this board as an example, but obviously I'm wrong!
