  • The remaining 2 are both teams from the north west, in league 2. Not Crewe, they have been guessed already.

    The winning streak side are currently in the Championship. They are English but did once win the Welsh cup, ironically against one of the 2 teams above - who are also English.
  • Winning streak must be Bristol City then ?

    It is indeed. Between November 1931 and January 1960 we played Bristol City 13 times, and won every single one.

    Blimey - I would never have thought it was them - my abiding memory of them is all the trouble outside their ground many years ago

    Barrow in Cumbria or 🤔
    Accrington, Tranmere, or Morecambe in Lancashire?

    I remember playing them a few times in the early 90s when I was younger, and going there I'm sure at least 2 or 3 times as we had family that way that we used to bring along. We always seemed to do well against them even then.

    Unfortunately just the volume of games against them that stops them being in the top 10. Bristol City, Brentford and Southend are the only sides we've played 40 or more times and have at least a 50% winning record against.

    Accrington and Tranmere are the final 2.

    The interesting thing with Tranmere is their record against us is just as bad. 30 games, 7 wins each, but 16 draws, including the last 5 meetings against them, which have all been 1-1.

    Surprisingly we have a good winning percentage against them, 43.48%.
    Must just be my luck haha. I've seen us play them 7 times, 6 losses 1 draw

    Looking at the games, we started off well, 4 wins in our first 6 games against them. But recently we only have 4 wins in the last 11.

    Quiz of the week time :) 

    Hoping this is a little easier, at first at least. Chuks recently joined the 100 apprearance club, and George Dobson also joined it this season. But, how many other players can you name that have made over 100 appearances (league and cup only) in the last 40 years?

    So only appearances from 27th of August 1983 onwards count. This means that although the likes of Derek Hales and Les Berry have obviously made over 100 appearances and played games after that date, they did not make 100 appearances or more after that date.

    There are 74 players, not including Dobson and Chuks to find.

    1.                                                   39.
    2.                                                   40.
    3.                                                   41.
    4.                                                   42.
    5.                                                   43.
    6.                                                   44.
    7.                                                   45.
    8.                                                   46.
    9.                                                   47. 
    10.                                                 48. George Dobson - 136
    11.                                                 49.

    Holland 215, Powell 270, Bolder 296, Kinsella 226 and Leaburn 376.

    Hunt actually only made 94. Those injuries cost him a place on the list.
