5 in a Row (4 Viewers)

[SBAndy]

Been sitting on this all week but didn’t want to jinx it. Can anyone tell me when the last time we did that (in the league) was?

Definitely can’t remember at this level, but I think first season back in league 1 we did 5 in a row? Maybe someone will correct me!

When we won league 1

The run either equals or better's anything by the club since 1883!!

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

We had the 1-0 FA Cup win at Villa Park in there to make it 6 in total

Had missed that due to the Birmingham draw in the cup.

Didn't we go something like 11 games unbeaten at one point that season?

We had an outside chance of UEFA Cup for quite a while, not bad considering our first half of that season was pretty dreadful, from memory.

Edit, I probably should have looked at the image properly

That's some memory you've got

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The club record is 6...

According Rob Gurney it's a club record since 1883.

What a great run in the top flight. That win against Derby on 28 March 98 was my first match, my Dad took me for my birthday.

The 9 wins in 10 is a club record

hahah, i couldnt not change it when i saw it on the highlights

We were last promoted to Division 1 in 1967 on the back of a 25 match unbeaten run (15 wins and 10 draws). Not as impressive as today's form but worth a mention.

The 9 wins in 10 is a club record

We are on a great run but this 9 in 10 stat is a bit arbitrary isn't it?! Nobody measures that usually. Wins in the row is a more standard record

Its the most points we've ever got over a 10 match period

Not to down play the achievement. Just an observation that it's not a real thing that anyone has ever been looking for in the past.

I'll try embrace it just seems a bit odd

Seeing as we are on the topic I wonder what the fewest points we've ever accrued in a 10 game stretch?

Oh I know that one. Its 1 point.
1919-20, our first football league season and probably the worst.

I know because last year Cheltenham went 11 games without scoring, which equalled the football league record held by us in 1919. I remember Clive saying that if Cheltenham went one more game without scoring we would be relieved of that 100 year old record. Unfortunately they scored

 

[Stafford_SkBlue]

At the start of the 1964/5 season we won the first 5 games!

Ooof image what it would be like on here after a run like that
