cummins17 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Was just looking at our fixture run in and it got me thinking about different Bogey teams who we can never seem to beat? Ones which spring to mind for me are; Preston and Leeds both away Are there any other teams who you dread to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Army 75 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Cardiff seem to be a bit of a bogey side recently . Growing up unfortunately it was the gas for a while . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderingred Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 OK here goes: Derby (no wins in 8) Reading (7 straight losses against them and 2 wins in 14) Brighton (6 defeats and a draw in 7 games) Leeds (1 win in 10 including 8 losses) Preston (no wins in 7) Cardiff (2 wins and 10 defeats in 15) Newcastle (no wins in 11) Wolves (1 win in 15) QPR (1 win in 11) Blackburn (4 defeats in 6 recent meetings) Birmingham (no wins and 9 defeats in 11) Brentford (4 defeats and a draw in 5) So basically half the entire divison are bogey sides which shows how crap we are at competing at this level. Back in the early 90s, I remember it being Oxford. A trip to the Manor Ground was always a certain defeat... Did we ever win there? On the bright side, we have a good recent record against Forest, Huddersfield, Ipswich and Sheffield Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 These "bogey" labels come and go. City had never won at Northampton, yet our last three visits there were all victories. Similarly City had never won at Hartlepool and Tranmere, but those unwanted records fell. It's not just City though. For literally decades Birmingham v Oxford was always a 0-0 result regardless of where it was played. Carlisle have an appalling record H & A against Luton. Spurs went over 70 years between victories at Anfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I can't remember beating Oxford in the 90s we did beat them 4-2 in the league cup first round in September 1989. I remember travelling up on a City Dart with Cats seemed to take an age to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
