Today I learned that Jay Rodriguez and Shane Long are 6th and 7th on the Saints all-time PL goalscoring chart.
Only Marian Pahars has reached 20 Premier League goals in fewer appearances for Southampton than Danny Ings (44 compared to 45).
Two positive stats from today, depending how you see them: In the last 6 games we have only dropped 3 points from a winning position. This is the first time this season that once going ahead at St Mary's, we have not stayed ahead.
Danny Ings is..... One goal away from Dowie Two goals away from Kevin Phillips Three goals from Pelle And just six goals from over taking Shane Long in epl goals scored for saints. Obviously now Shane has scored a goal, he deserves a little mention. He is now three goals away from 4th in the all time Saints epl scorers table and that would see him leapfrog Egil & sir Rickie. Mind you, he might well need two more seasons to do it!
Not really worthy of the ****ty stats thread. But we've hit the woodwork 5 times in the last two games. That's unlucky.
