Afternoon folk.
Now that yesterday is a distant memory ( not ) here are a few stats on the previous 2 seasons after 10 games, when we reached the play offs.
2009-10 played 10 W 4 D3 L3 15 points. finished 6th with 80 points.
2010-11 played 10 W 4 D2 L4 14 points. Finished 3rd with 87 points.
2011-12 Played 10 W4 D6 L0 18 points. ..... with 36 games to go......
Make of those stats what you like, it says to me we have progressed from last year, & that we should/could get that precious auto spot come May 2012.
Southampton's first 10 games last season ...... W 3 D 3 L 4 , 12 points, they then got 80 points from the remaining 36 games to get 92 points and get Auto.
So infact we are doing pretty well, we could be doing better though, those are the frustrating facts.
Interesting Stats !!

Good point Andy, I thought the atmosphere was poor yesterday, having home fans in the South Stand doesn't work for me !!
Does anyone agree ?

This League is ACE.
It might as well be seen as such, because that's our reality.
After Norwich, L666s & Millwall went up, many moaned what a $h17 league it was going to be,
WRONG.
Turned out to be one of the most exciting season's for a long while, & OH! look who's doing very well in the Champs so far ! Newly promoted teams from the $h17 league.
Well pointed out .."up to now" stats Wethers,
We could so easily have had those extra 4 points we have literally thrown away this last fortnight,
BUT.
How many teams race away at the top in the early part of the season, only to fade & die as the fixtures come & go..
For now, & a full day after that Disastrous DRAW !!!!! we are doing alright.
Still a long , long way to go .
next game.
That should be the focus now.
Brentford here we come.

BTW M8.
Have you managed to calm darn after that fiasco on Saturday,
I couldn't 'exchange' with MN on here 'cause the wife was on 'Skype' with her sister who was having an 'op'...
But she kept shouting out the score from time to time,
Our Eldest had come round to watch the Prem league as he'd got the weekend off..company & all that,
I was as pee one double five'd as anyone when she blurted out 'they'd' equalized.
But at the same time had a wry smile thinking about all the raving mad faces & comments being hurled from the 'terraces',
Not funny, but Hilarious at the same time if that makes any sense ....

You do get over it after 24 hrs or so, you tend to look at the bigger picture, we are doing ok despite the manager AGAIN! We are set for an indian summer this week! 25 degrees and its nearly October!
