Can only assume Kane misses out on this because Spurs spent 2 years at Wembley?

And moved stadiums. White Hart Lane and the Tottenham Stadium won't continue as the same

Before today’s game we’d scored 2 more goals than Newcastle

The 4 goals conceded against Newcastle at St James Park is one better than in 1990, conceding 5; although City did score 4. Remarkably, the other result in 1990 v Newcastle when City were at home was 5-4 to City. (The games were in different seasons but the only times those two sides played one another.)

and much better than the 7 we conceded up there early 90s (92?) I think Andy Cole scored 3 or 4 from memory.

Don't know if this has been posted on another thread:

Not that I can find it but didn’t MotD also show a possession stat that we were the 3rd highest club, behind Liverpool and Chelsea, to have more possession against Man C in a premier league game or something along those lines?

As noted elsewehere, Man U lose three at home in a row in the League for the first time since 78/79. 

 

If we're talking about all competitions, they hadn't lost three in a row since March-April 1963. It was very late in the season but they still had three games against Leicester City to play after that - one home, one away, one at Wembley. Three games we needed to win in our quest for the double. 

 

In United's next home game, on Good Friday, they stopped the rot - they held us to a 2-2 draw,  with Bobby Charlton scoring a controversial free kick, taken before we'd lined up a wall. The next day was the return game and we won 4-3, leaving us top of the League with five to play, though Spurs and Everton were a point behind with a game in hand. 

 

After a draw against Wolves four days later we then lost our last four games in the League to finish 3rd, and also lost the Cup Final.

Our next four home league games are against London clubs. Has this ever happened before?

 

Depending on the QPR result and possible cup draws, it could be five (or six) in a row in all competitions.

PL only, or ever?

Ever. Don't recall it in recent years.

Looked back over 40 yrs... 

 

Do you count Southend as London? If so, 1995/96 season we had 4 home league games against Southend, Charlton, Palace and Watford. 

 

3 in a row in relegation season - Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea (Feb-March 2023)

 

Arsenal, Chelsea, Watford the season before 

 

Arsenal, Palace, Watford 15/16 season. 

 

Arsenal, Wimbledon, Tottenham in 1998/99

Bit worried about Isak breaking his record, he looks unstoppable at the min and someone else mentioned their next runs of fixtures are favourable. 

 

To counteract this I've just put him back into my FPL team so if history is to go by he'll suddenly go out of form.
