Longest winning home run


Sunderland hold the title of 24 successive home wins in a row dating back to the 1891/1892 season - was anybody other than Hank alive to witness it? PS - Man City have a chance to equal that on Saturday. A very impressive stat by the way that outweighs any attendance obsessive stat on here.
Ha'way Liverpool!
 
Best I can remember is the promotion season 75/76.

21 home games - we won 19 and drew against Bristol City and Bristol Rovers

However, we did lose at home to third division Palace in the FA Cup Quarter Finals.

Roker Park really was a fortress that season. We won the league despite our abysmal away record of

W5. D6. L10
Brilliant memory. I think it's pretty obvious from my posts I'm not a Mackem but I do have a soft spot for you lot. Growing up watching the likes of Phillips, Quinn and Julio Arca. Great to watch and it was always fun when you beat those sell outs up the road.

Our record is a run of 24 successive home league wins I believe. City are nowhere near equalling it - no matter what Sky says. They are on 15 successive home league wins.

Same here. We would have had a semi-final against 2nd division Southampton for our 2nd cup final in a few years!

Our was 19 league games and 5 FA Cup games from 20th December 1890 against Everton in the league until the last win 20th February 1892 against Stoke in the Cup as we drew 2-2 with Notts County in the league. We won 31 of 32 as we won 11 of the next 12 league games after that draw.

Man City have 21 for league and FA Cup and now have 23 home wins in all competitions so 24 if they beat Liverpool.

If they win, we'll still have the longest home winning period of 2 years, 3 months to City's which is around 10 months 3 weeks

Who remembers those little divvies from Darwen who were gutted about us beating their losing streak? Think we beat Preston 2-0 to end ours
Aye I do that news was every where in the week building upto the game, I actually went to that game on me own 1at visit to Deepdale, Shaun Thornton scored we had that navy n red Nike top on
 
Who gives a fuck if they beat it? A decade of being able to buy the best players in the world every window. I'm surprised it has taken this long
