Winning streak

Everyone seems to have missed the most important point here. The very fact that the possibility of breaking this record has literally just crept up on us just shows that nobody knows how really good we are, and I mean really,really good. The media missed it, we missed it on Bluemoon, the club probably missed it too. This record will have been set with do or die games against Roma and Bayern and difficult ties against Southampton away and our bogey side the Mackems. All done with a list of walking wounded as long as your arm and with style and panache.

Maureen must be shitting bricks.

That can't be right pal???
I think it is. We drew at Southampton on 7 Dec then won in Munich a few days later, which was the first win in the sequence. We beat Arsenal 6-3 then won at Leicester in the League Cup. Four consecutive wins in the league up to Swansea on New Years Day made it 7 on the bounce and winning at Blackburn would have been 8.

Then it was West Ham in the LC semi, followed by PL wins against Newcastle & Cardiff and the second leg at West Ham. Then Watford in the FA Cup and Spurs in the PL. After that we lost at home to Chelsea.

So that would have been 14 consecutive wins.

You've missed the Blackburn replay.

So it would have been 15 wins on the bounce. But all "if".... If Liverpool had beaten Chelsea...
The premise was that we'd have won 14 on the bounce IF we'd beaten Blackburn first time. Had we done that, we wouldn't have needed the replay. So I purposely excluded it.

Ah well was nice while it lasted, keep playing good football and we'll have more chances to break records.
