- The Royston win ended a winless run of 14 league games (D3 L11), with their last win before that coming on 27th December, as they beat Real Bedford away from home 1-3. This run included nine straight defeats, from 24th January to 14th March.
- At home, they’re winless in eight in the league (D3 L5), with their last home win coming against Worcester City (6th December, 2-1)
- It really has been a tale of two seasons at home; they began it with eight league games unbeaten (W4 D4) before losing to Redditch on 22nd November (0-2). In their last 12 home league matches, they’ve won just one – the Worcester game.
- Despite their recent form, they have scored in each of their last six league games.
- Their clean sheet last time ended a run of 25 games without a clean sheet – the last before Monday’s being in a 0-0 draw at Kettering on 1st November. The Kettering game was their 13th game of the season – in which they picked up six clean sheets in that time.
- In terms of their recent home form, they are one of four teams who are winless in their last five.
- Only two teams have picked up less points across every side’s last five home league games than Ives’ one (Sudbury and Barwell – both who have accrued zero points).
- Looking further at every side’s last five home leagues, only two teams have scored less than their four (Royston and Sudbury), only two teams have conceded more than their 12 (Sudbury and Barwell)
- Their last point at home came via a 1-1 draw versus Spalding on 21st March. Prior to that, they lost four home matches in a row, with their last point before that being a 2-2 draw versus Royston on 3rd January.
- They are scoring goals in the league at home – notching up exactly one in their last five, and scoring in nine of their last ten (the game in which they never was a 0-4 defeat versus Halesowen on 24th January).
- Their last seven league goals at home have been scored by seven different scorers (those being five in the five games where they scored just the one, and two in the draw with Royston).
- Their last league home clean sheet came on 18th October, in a 2-0 win over Alvechurch. They had kept three league clean sheets at home before that (in their opening five) but, since the Alvechurch win, they’ve gone 13 home league games without a clean sheet.
- In their 19 home league games this season, they have never scored more than two in a single match.
- It has been a season of spells for St Ives – as well as the aforementioned 14 match winless run, they did go five league matches unbeaten across October/November (W3 D2) but then went on to record four straight league losses across the remainder of November.
- Top goalscorer (as per footballwebpages.co.uk): Michael Richens (15 – the next highest scorer having scored 6).
