Bees retain Record

[waster]

Following Liverpool’s 1 - 1 draw at Anfield today with Burnley, it means the Bees remain the only team to win all their home league games in a season, for another season.

 

[kevalutonbee]

Would argue they would are not worthy for the simple reason they played less games than we did

 

[nocoat]

Fewer

 

[Delbee]

I bet Liniker Walker and co only mention that Liverpool have missed out on winning all home games in a season, but don’t mention that Brentford did win all there home games in a season

 

[Beefletch]

Good !

Only trouble is, we're not the only team to win all our home games in a season. We're the only ones to win all 21 home games: other English teams have won all their home games, but at a time when they played fewer.

 

[RodBee]

On Sky they said the only top division team to win all their home games in a season were Sunderland in the 1880's.

Right strip, wrong team, wrong era!

For some reason, I've quoted myself.

Is it the wrong team? We weren't in the top division when we did it, were we? I believe our record is that we're the only club that's done it for all 21 games. Others have done it with fewer games.

Yep we have won the most home games in a season with 100% record

Talking about records , is ( seven ) straight league wins now a new record for us , ive always thought ( six ) was our best

They'll be talking plenty about us next season.

So we hold the record

 

[Indian Bee]

I think so but happy to be corrected. Just remember that season well.

think you maybe right , remember we had a tough xmas set of games would have been happy with 5/6 points, , we won them all, remember Peterborough away

Funny enough it was Dean Smith Walsall that stopped our run

 

[Paul O'Brien]

Yes. My "only trouble is" statement was because waster had said that we "remain the only team to win all their home league games in a season".

 

[Norfolk Bee]

A good day all round!

 

[w7 bee]

We lost away to Southend in the FA cup 1st round that season, if only we were given a home draw!

Not true. No one has done it since 1929/30 and/or won more than 21/21.

Great news. Would’ve been sh*t to lose this record and the pub on each corner within weeks from a football quiz question point of view.

Great news. Would’ve been sh*t to lose this record and the pub on each corner within weeks from a football quiz question point of view.

The 'pub on each corner' is being replaced by 'nearest to a railway station' (and maybe 'closest to a Sainsbury's Local', depending on who takes up the retail spaces).

Nearest to a motorway or do Walsall hold that one.

 

[Billy Hunt]

Nearest to a bridge over the Thames?

8 straight wins in League One, then a draw v Walsall. A thirteen game unbeaten run. Pld 13 W 11 D 2 L 0

We won 5 and drew 1 before that Peterborough game so it was actually a 17 game unbeaten run with 14 wins and 3 draws.

The best sustained spell of form I can ever remember but if we were to win 10 straight games it might just top it.
