It is puzzling, we just can't see to get results at home consistantly at all in recent years.

If you exclude the Wellens championship season - in the other 5 seasons we have won only 35 league games at home, had 28 draws and a huge 42 defeats thats an average of more than 8 a season.

Back in the 70s and 80s we rarely lost more than 4 or 5 at home but that stat was almost the opposite in away games.

I had a quick check on the "olden days" some random years in the 70's and early 80s and we were a fortress at home and far poorer away from home.

82-83 6 wins away wins but 13 at home
78-79 6 wins away wins but 19 at home
77-78 4 wins away wins but 12 at home
76-77 2 wins away wins but 12 at home
74-75 3 wins away wins but 18 at home

Why has this almost changed round to the polar opposite?

As you state thats under 6 different managers, our fans get frustrated but rarely get on the players backs even in a run of poor results so it cant be fan frustration boiling over onto the pitch and affecting the players.

It is just weird and unfathomable as to the reasons behind our poor home form in recent years.
Because the atmosphere is utter shit these days now. Sit there in silence and after 20 minutes if no goal they scream get it forward and start getting on their backs.

With all these stats knocking about was just looking at Wellens Wiki for his general figures here. What did catch my eye was his Donny stats, I knew it hadn't gone well but his win% there was worse than Sheridans was here, bloody hell!

Tbf unless the TE are singing there is no noise. Can't recall many chants coming from the North Stand in the 33 years I've been going. The DRS used to, not so much now.

Cant see him giving up his £50k a week contract just yet!

Has his effort for clubs ever been in question. Must be a reason he’s dropped so low.

West Ham look poor, though. They don’t fancy it at all.
