So is this a record or not? Best since WW2 I guess? 

 

Films with sound had not yet been released when we last had a start this good.

We need to win at Oakwell (where we've drawn the last 4 League meetings 2-2) to match the feat of the 1927-28 team. In short, the best start at this level for 93 years. So let's enjoy it while it lasts.

Wouldn't it be great if we were to win that and beat Colin's Boro on the following Tuesday to create a new record?

I've seen some completely random posts on here before, but this is right up there with the worst. 

Absolutely hilarious how you have tried to post some random nonsense about Columbo and link it to Bristol City 

That’s a fair point. Can’t believe we are talking about a fictional US TV detective on here. I bet we wouldn’t be discussing it if we had lost the first four games. Weird.

It will be Ironside next the bloke in the wheel chair. Ray Burn was the dood in the late 60s to mid 70s..

agree if we did go down the first four DH would of been hung by now. It’s weird eh how things change so quickly.

lets hope we keep winning. I’m sure we will.

Just one more thing, Sir, we're talking about it because it's a fact.

A little over serious and over critical here chaps.

For those who seem to feel the need to criticize Columbo's (imo) welcome appearance on OTIB - as Rhett's Butler's grandson Tony might say, 

'Frankly, my dear I don't give a damn'.

I'm all for random eccentricity occasionally illuminating OTIB, and quirky threads that go off into unexpected places.

Keep them coming @Curr Avon @Never to the dark side etc, appreciated by many I'm sure.

Yes when somebody links a fictional us comedy, to the club, its very silly isnt it.

The op has had his CHIPS with me.....

Apparently, the last time we scored 2 goals in each of our opening 4 games was when Kojak shaved his head.

That sucks.  

Great knowledge though Teds, thanks for sharing.

It was Frank.

Columbo's first name is notably never mentioned in the series, but "Frank Columbo" or "Lt. Frank Columbo" can often be seen on his police ID. 

Great spot there Nogbad.

His name would suggest he was the guilty party.

I think  Lonely was played by an unknown actor called Hunter. Can’t remember the first name tho.....Richard maybe?
