#safc have won after conceding first at home only once since O'Neill's first game in charge in 2011

But in the 61 games they have conceded first, they have fought back to win on only two occasions (3 per cent) - a truly shocking statistic.

Shows the lack of mental ability in the side. No leaders on the pitch, John O'Shea the biggest culprit, takes a knee when we go behind.

Its genuinely absolutely disgusting.

National anthem?

There's probably only been about 10 wins in total tbf never mind after a goal down

 

[Gucci Massive]

No surprise fans leave early especially if we are two goals down. You know there's very little chance of a comeback.

It's a bit of a random stat. How many teams fall behind and go on to win a match on a regular basis? Not many I'd wager

 

[homeless kid]

Thread title says once, post says twice...

Chelsea at home is the only one I can think of.

Didn't we go behind twice in that game??

I said this to the journo who wrote the piece and he replied saying he agreed but Sunderland were probably worse than the average

 

[naughtynose]

What game was that?

Aren't the title and text contradictory? Is it winning in one or two games?

 

[Iballistic George]

Weren't both against Chelsea?

Capital once cup when we got to Wembley and season before last

 

[samwise]

and still people around the country wonder why our fans 'turn on the team' so fast.

Recall the team getting booed off at half time too

I'd say we also don't win after scoring first at home, but we haven't done that since Watford in December.
