Thread: 5 league wins in a row?

  1. #1

    5 league wins in a row?

    Not from the outset but I recall us winning 5 on the spin in I think it was 2010-11 season.

    In that stretch City beat Leeds 4-0 away and Bristol C 3-2 and then Norwich but then we lost 1-0 at home to the jacks. Bothroyd was suspended.

    Anyone know what our record consecutive winning steak is?

    ps. I'm not superstitious any more so I am not jinxing it.

    Interesting question, but can't find the answer anywhere, but I think you have to back to the 40's

    There was a 9 winning streak in 1912/1913.

    Another in 1946/47. http://imgur.com/a/lwkkz

    i'll go through see if i can find anymore.

    The best run I can remember off the top of my head was six straight league wins in 92/93, we then drew with Crewe before winning our next four league games plus a Welsh Cup tie - I'd be surprised if we have won more than nine on the trot though.

    Edit, just had a look at 46/47 and not only did we manage those nine straight wins following a 2-2 home draw with QPR, but that match had ended a run of five straight wins beforehand!
