There are probably only examples of this in the Premier League. One such example is Aston Villa vs Man Utd at Villa Park. On the opening day of the 1995/96 season Villa won 3-1 at home (won't win anything with kids - Hansen). Villa haven't beaten United at home in the league since. United have won 19 of their last 27 visits there, including a run of 8 successive away wins
Whenever things are looking bad at City in terms of us making useless signings, I always think well, at least we're not Forest. Their turnover of players is so rapid that it's hard to believe that their players have some sort of complex about playing us, because an awful lot of them just play the once against us!
I just can't understand why stats like this happen. As I mentioned in my blog, so many of the seven away wins are so similar in character with us getting a goal or two in front in the first half, yesterday was different though in that I'm fairly sure that it's the first one of the seven that Forest have scored first in.
