3pm v non 3pm home league form

[El Presidente]

3pm kick offs W 10 D 1 L 1 (and we had 9 men for 80 mins in the defeat)

Non 3pm kick offs W 0 D 4 L 2

The bad news is that of our five remaining home fixtures, only two kick off at 3pm.

 

[Beach Hut]

We do seem pedestrian when playing under lights at home.

 

[Simster]

Good spot El Pres, but for SHIT'S sake that is a poor stat. I hadn't noticed that before.

 

[Mendoza]

We are also slow starters. We have scored 35 goals at the Amex, just 8 of them have been in the first half.

 

[ees complicated no?]

maybe they are to cold in the evening ..... turn on the underground heating I say

 

[brightn'ove]

well i hope we sort it out as i just bought my tickets for the derby game on the 20th

 

[stss30]

I was thinking that earlier today. Derby away is a nailed on defeat then

That's because teams spend the first half chasing the ball trying to get it off us, opposing managers call this containment but I prefer to use toying with them. In the second half they are so knackerd we just pick them apart.

We'll turn it round, have faith.

 

[FootballFan7]

just a time of kick off. is up to the men on the pitch to decide the game..cannot be using statistics to decide their fate!

 

[DTES]

Also, until Saturday, Vicente hadn't scored a goal at home. These kind of stats are there to be disproven; it'll all come good.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Interesting stats, not good reading!

I wouldn't say that, I think it's all part of the tactics. Gus is actually quite pleased with 0-0 at half time especially if the other team have been chasing us around

 

[brightn'ove]

also worth noting that we have beaten SUNDERLAND, NEWCASTLE and gillingham under the lights... I know its not the league but its still quite a good record... in the cup(s) under the lights W 3 D 1 L 1..

saturdays are so much more fun at AMEX

and it has obviously worked, we are 5th in the league after all. we need the opposing team to spend their energy trying to attack in the first half so that we BATTER them in the second half with the help of a sub vicente/buckley/lualua/noone etc.

Definitely. Was so confident when it was 0-0 at half time on Saturday. You just know that we have the quality off the bench to exploit the hard work done by the starting XI in the first hour.

Regarding not winning other than at 3pm, can't see any real cause for this. We have beaten Gillingham, Newcastle and Sunderland at later times.

We had Vicente, CMS and LuaLua on the bench. Ridiculous really!

And Razak, Assulin and Sparrow not involved either. Then add in Hoskins, JFC, Agdestein, Vincelot, Dunk, Harley, Painter, Dicker and Elphick and it's not a bad little squad

 

[nail-Z]

The law of averages will triumph and we'll win all remaining late fixtures to level things out.
