One for the stattos on here - before today who was the last City player to score 6 goals while still a teenager?

Would it be my old (very briefly) team mate Richard Pears?

This answer is 3 or 4 ! Twice in successive seasons under Brian Godfrey as manager and once under Tisdale. It becomes 4 if you take when we competed in the regionalised Division 3 (South) and consider finishing in the top 5 as the equivalent. In 1932/33 we finished 2nd in that Competition but unfortunately at that time only the top team of both the North and South Divisions were promoted to Division 2.

Following up (and jinxing the rest of the season!): if we work on the basis that in Div 3 (South) a regional 6th = national 12th, City have only finished in the top half of the 3rd tier a total of 5 times. Include all the ones Colesman Ballz mentions in the top 10, plus one more under Godfrey (11th).

It's now a realistic possibility that we could make it six this season.

Still on for that top half!

Next research topic: City's unbeaten runs in the 3rd tier. What's the record?

 

[The 3 United's]

When was the last time City scored four goals away from home in a single half, in L1 and L2 or equivalent?

Scunthorpe away early on in our promotion season.

Yesterday was our 10th consecutive league game where we have scored. I’m guessing the record is a lot more, but what would that be?

One for any ExeWeb stattos...

A pal mentioned to me last night that we've now scored in nine successive games [ironic given how we've generally struggled for goals this season] and wondered whether this was anywhere close to a club record. Over to you... PS Don't blame me if we fail to score at Vale Park tomorrow! ;-)

Have we ever finished with more away wins than home wins in a season??

Have we ever finished with more away wins than home wins in a season??

If I'm looking at the right stats it happened 5 seasons in a row under Tisdale when we returned to League 2.

Most away wins ever in the third tier this season with 9 surpassing the previous highest of 8 we achieved in 1953/54 (Div 3 South) and 2010/11.
