Season summary
Manager Dave Jones was given leave from his duties in January to concentrate on clearing his name in connection with child abuse charges, and former England boss Glenn Hoddle was appointed on a temporary basis.[1] Hoddle did well to keep the Saints clear of relegation, and safety was achieved with a 15th place finish and a respectable 44 points. As the new season approached, it was still unclear as to whether Jones would ever return to the club.
Matt Le Tissier scored a modest six goals during the season, but that was sufficient to bring his total number of Premier League goals to 100, making him the first midfielder to reach this milestone.[citation needed] Le Tissier reached the milestone in Southampton's 2–1 defeat to Sunderland on 1 April 2000 with a goal from the penalty spot.[2]
