ericofarabia Posted 6 December, 2009 Share Posted 6 December, 2009 Surely this must be some sort of record for us, going 2 unbeaten used to be a cause for jubilation, but 10 FFS ... come on stattos earn your corn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 6 December, 2009 Share Posted 6 December, 2009 We have won Leagues, come 2nd and 3rd in the past. I'm sure it has been bettered at some point in the last 124 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is Saints dough right? Without looking a the stats I would presume this is a record; so I'll have 1 more beer before I turn in. xxx Cheers.

CB Fry Posted 6 December, 2009 Share Posted 6 December, 2009 Someone will be on this thread in a minute saying "pro-rata" we've only actually drawn most of those games and we actually still owe the league some points or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the UK for the 1st 3 games and went to Huddersfield (could have been 8-1 to them ) and Stockport (should have been 6-1 to us :cool:) . Since I've been back in Dubai they have been unbeaten away from home although scarily i watched the Brighton home game on computer which of course we lost :cool: Be warned I get back in time for a trip to Leeds ... oh dear PS thanks for given me a very loud LOL ...

I'm sure it has been bettered at some point in the last 124 years. mmmm, not sure that we have ( MLG.) True we had a good runs of form when we topped the Div.1 table .and those years when we won promotion(s) but he's talking AWAY form, and he maybe right . :confused: No time to check now, but will come back on it if no-one else does first .

Despite a sticky, awkward start we've registered 20 goals in the last 7 away games. Now that is absolutely amazing, for any league.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadoldgit Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 Growing up as a saints fan in the late 60's we were always hard to beat at home and easy to beat away from home. Ted Bates sorted that by signing Big John McGrath and we picked up away points to such an extent that we made it into Europe. We have been notoriously bad travellers over the years so it is great to see us winning and scoring loads away right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 I always put that down to the Dell. It was very different from the other top club's grounds. Made it hard for others to play there, but also made it hard for us to play anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 It's even more impressive that we've only had 2 defeats in the last 16 league games (or 18 games if you count the cup exploits) no getting away from it - this is league winning form (just a shame we had the - 10 start...!)

Minty Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 A reply from Gary Chalk, via David Bull, via Saintslist, about whether being unbeaten in 10 away from home is a record: If you include FAC matches then 1949/50 was also 10 on the spin (9 Lge + 1 FAC). Season 1902-03 was 11 on the spin (10 Lge+ 1 FAC). If you remove the FAC matches our total stands at 8 lge away games without defeat. The 1949-50 figure is 9 the 1896-7 figure is 10 the 1902-03 figure is 15 (5 Apr 1902 to 4 Apr 1903) So a positive result at Leeds would equal a FL club record. No pressure there then... lol!

oldsarum Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 Form the Saints List According to Gary Chalk, our record unbeated away runs are as follows ON THE SPIN" the answer to that is no.

The 1949-50 figure is 9 the 1896-7 figure is 10 the 1902-03 figure is 15 5 Apr 1902 to 4 Apr 1903 I also think we went 8 games in league without defeat on our 1977/78 promotion season , following the battle of Ewood Park game when Ossie (in his last ever game for us, and Steve Williams were both sent off thanks to John Bailey) Those 8 games, if I'm right were as follows Oldham D 1-1 Spurs D 0-0 Blackpool W1 -0 Charlton W 3-1 Brighton D 1-1 Mansfield W 2-1 Burnley D 3-3 Bolton D 0-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets B Avenue Posted 7 December, 2009 Share Posted 7 December, 2009 I also think we went 8 games in league without defeat on our 1977/78 promotion season , following the battle of Ewood Park game when Ossie (in his last ever game for us, and Steve Williams were both sent off thanks to John Bailey) Those 8 games, if I'm right were as follows Oldham D 1-1 Spurs D 0-0 Blackpool W1 -0 Charlton W 3-1 Brighton D 1-1 Mansfield W 2-1 Burnley D 3-3 Bolton D 0-0 You've missed out the 0-0 draw at Sunderland on the 4th march (one of the coldest days I ever saw Saints) which makes it 9.

Brighton, Burnley and Bolton and didn't go to the Cardiff game that ended the run so there is hope yet for our current run And I'm liking the Promotion Season connection very much !!!
