6 wins on the trot - FAO Snuggly

[Eric the Half a Bee]

Your request for a streak analysis.

This is the 9th time we've won 6 games on the trot (excluding European and Welsh ties). The first to manage it was Fred Steward in 1922. McCandless's almost invincibles in 1946/47 managed 8 on the spin. The only other time we've managed 8 successive wins was under Neil Warnock, when we beat Burton 3-1 at home. We have never managed 7 wins on the trot except under those runs from Warnock and McCandless.

I find it amazing that we were 2 defeats away from the worst losing streak in the club's history, yet are 3 wins away from the best winning streak ever.

Have you got a ZX 81 for all this ?

Just from memory.

So if we beat Colin and Rooney he'll be joint leading run manager?

That spectacular run by Fulham a few years ago keeps coming to my mind and I'm trying so hard not to think about it!!

And how did you know I'm snuggly?

Is it best start by a new manager yet ?

Yep, 2 more wins for the joint record. Isn't this just the most bizarre season? We're in that sort of form that we could do it, but this is the Championship!

How did I know you're snuggly? Pornhub.

Harris's start last season was the best, so McCarthy's is now. Officially the best starting 8 games ever by a Cardiff manager.

I thought Lennie's was the best ever start of a City manager? Didn't we not lose for fourteen games after he took over from Corky, only for his 1st defeat to be Stoke at home in the Play-offs. Or have I dreamed that all up?

Joint best then! If McCarthy emulates that he'll have done well.

We won 6 in a row 92/93 season under Eddie May between Jan 23rd and February 19th. We then drew 1-1 with Crewe away and won the next 4 making us undefeated for 11 league games. That season we went up as champions after bringing in Kevin Ratcliffe in January who propelled Cardiff up the table.

If you switch manager for Premiership player both seasons have a few similarities including the dates of the good runs. Hopefully it ends in the same way as well
