Robin101 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 When watching away games together, my friend and I have never seen Bristol City lose. If only one of us travels, we've both seen us lose. I thought it was a good record, but finally counted it up after Saturday's win at QPR and stretching back to 2014 we've watched 12 away matches together, and not lost a single one. Alright, I'm sure others are going away much more regularly, but can anyone beat our streak? It's WWWDWWWWDWWD for the record! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 My first away 'run' as a youngster was far more typical although a tad more glamourous. It was 1. Arsenal away (1976) and the next away game I went to was Man City away and we lost 2-1 I think. I know Dennis Tueart scored for the Manc's, I thought he was cool as a little 'un. I dread to think how many away games those of my vintage have been to in the intervening years, must be in the high hundreds for some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the red rules Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 After qpr one of my mates last 21 games were- 15 wins 5 draws and 1 loss. Although one draw was a loss on penalties. Amazingly even included a few home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a few games in Div 1, few more in Div 2 in fact the worse we got the more I went First was Derby, lost 2-0. The years after that included a hell of a lot of defeats, but great times.

REDOXO Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 My first time at Millwall we lost. Since then I have never been there and seen us lose. Including Clive Whiteheads debut goal And Attevelds worldly OG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 When living abroad, I came home just once or twice a year and took in a City game if poss. As a result I went four years between seeing City defeats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't 100%, but my first 9 live City games, home and away, were without a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 Not unbeaten but reckon only seen us lose twice away in the league. Probably between 12-15 games at least. Couple draws but a lot of wins. All since L1 promotion season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redapple Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 I haven’t been to an away game since the 2014/15 season when I attended 7 ( 6 wins, 1 draw). I think they were Coventry, Doncaster, Orient, MK Dons, Crawley, Yeovil and Bradford. Maybe I should go again this season as the home games have been uninspiring.

ralphindevon Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 I can remember years, especially when I was living in Bristol and going to quite a few away games, an away win was so rare, I certainly went whole seasons without seeing one. Now I reckon I’ve seen as many away as at home, including 3 on the trott this season……..and none at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xspence Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 Season ticket holder but friend had wedding on opening day, then couldn’t attend Luton due to having the little one. Was at Swansea (0-1) and Preston (0-0). Did villa (0-3) pre season. just before lockdown we could only attend the Fulham game for about 65 mins due to being on a flight so heard the goal from the car park (so 0-0 when we left) …. Was at West Brom (0-3). Couldn’t attend derby…. But went to Birmingham before that when we did score but in the first minute… so currently on a run of 514 minutes (excluding injury time) without seeing city score at Ashton gate! So I am on an impressive run of sorts…. Now fingers crossed to put 4 past Fulham! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Louie louie Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 I did almost every game in the promotion season under ward. Can recall a outstanding run of wins. Ended at fulham if im not mistaken, and michelle fowler was walking around with tony robinson before the game. I always blame her for that run ending, i dunno why.

I still remember the roar of the home crowd every time he got the ball. Me and my mate missed Keith Fears late goal as we tried to head to the train station early, unfortunately we encountered a large mob of Home fans outside the main stand. We were just about to pay dearly for leaving early when a middle aged Man City fan walking by said words to the effect of "leave them alone they're with me" I've never left a game early since.

Port Said Red Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 I have never seen us lose in Coventry at either of their stadiums. Southampton the same. I have never seen us lose at the City Ground Nottingham, but I have never seen us win in Brighton at either the Goldstone Ground or the school sports field they used to play at, or at Molineux.
