Title: Home record.
Post by: SoccerHQ on September 19, 2015, 07:30:15 PM: Just reluctantly reading the BBC match report and they had this stat:

Quote
Villa's long-suffering home fans have now seen them pick up only 71 points from 73 home Premier League games since December 2011 - with little from this performance indicating things are about to change.

So in a near enough 4 year period now we've averaging less than a point a game in home games. Incredible.

I did honestly think we'd start to crack it under Sherwood with the home games we were starting to win in the run in last season but 0/3 this season including failing to beat the division's whipping boys in Sunderland.

I'm surprised it's that many.

Well, looking on the bright side we have outperformed Denso.

No home wins so far this season out of three attempts !! Fourth time lucky?

I kind of agree but we can't keep sacking managers especially when most of our previous managers can't even win at home

Post by: LTA on September 19, 2015, 10:51:52 PM: Our record at home is getting bloody embarrassing now. I doubt there's another top flight club in Europe with as diabolical record in front of their own fans as us. Even under MON we were invariably better on the road.

Post by: Chris Harte on September 19, 2015, 11:18:35 PM: Is it 16 or 18 home wins in that time? It doesn't actually matter - either way those wins are from 79 games (four and a bit seasons). The record is appalling and it is a testament to the patience of our supporters that attendances haven't dropped significantly.

Post by: Steve67 on September 19, 2015, 11:20:47 PM: At some point I expect the same shit will get spouted about our players being nervous to play at VP because of the fans expectations. From the club, that is.

Truly fucking woeful statistics.
Title: Re: Home record.
Post by: pauliewalnuts on September 19, 2015, 11:25:38 PM: The stat is 20 home league wins in four seasons (plus the two home league games this season so far).

it really is a hideous stat.

Post by: PeterWithesShin on September 19, 2015, 11:27:22 PM: 3 league games this season. We'll win at home again before we ever get this stat right!

That's a bit optimistic!

Post by: nick harper on September 20, 2015, 10:05:25 AM: The home games I've been to in 2015....

v Swansea - 0-1
v Burnley - 0-1
v Man U - 0-1
v Albion - 0-1

Every game virtually the same. I'm in a perpetual nightmare.
