We won the tie, but whether it is regarded as an end to a winning sequence is debateable. I would like to know if our winning run is still intact? So far it just seems to be subjective opinion although there must be some precedent.

Already mentioned: Arsenal included wins on penalties in their record away sequence: https://www.arsenal.com/news/features/consecutive-away-winsWe won the tie, but whether it is regarded as an end to a winning sequence is debateable.

OK if that was recognised then that's pretty much resolved then.Already mentioned: Arsenal included wins on penalties in their record away sequence: https://www.arsenal.com/news/features/consecutive-away-wins

It's up there for one of the most iffy.While we're talking about records, is the Carabao Cup 5th round draw the longest in history?

#MCFC club records that could be equalled or beaten today at WBA:
Most away wins in a row in League: 6, 7 March – 26 September 1903. If we win at WBA we will have equalled this (currently on 5 including Watford on last day of last season).
Most wins in a row - all competitions: The current run/record is 12 and a win today would take the sequence to 13.
Most career first team goals - 177 Aguero has equalled Brook's record. A goal today and he's the all-time greatest City scorer with a goals to game ratio that eclipses all others.
Most games without defeat all competitions: currently on 20 (since FAC semi defeat v Arsenal). In 24 Nov 2013- 29 Jan 2014 we went 20 games in all comps without defeat. This may well be the record. It eclipses the runs around 1937 & 1947. Whatever happens if we don't lose today we will have passed the run from 2013-2014.
EDIT: Note-on the sequence debate from the other day. I've had confirmation from Sky and the key men behind the Nationwide Football Annual that they believe that City's current record is bona fide and they consider it the record. The Football Annual is the most historic of all football annuals and has been perceived since the 19th century as the official record of football. The Sky Sports annual is another official record. This means the most authoritative record sources view this rightly as a winning sequence that is now MCFC's record.

When you say 'may', is that because of incomplete records in the early days?
