We tried... good whilst it lasted.
If it's so easy, how come every team isn't doing the same then for bloody hell's sake?
Just look at that unhinged, melodramatic nonsense I received in response to that post.
Some of our fans are truly utter wastes of space.
If it's such a non achievement, why are we the only team even close to doing it this season?
The "Invincibles" lost in 3 different cup competitions.
Hardly invincible really were they.
No you don't understand. We aren't the best team in the world. Therefore it's all meaningless. God forbid we look at progression with anything but scolding hatred.
It's been done by two teams since 1888. I want absolutely no diminishing comments, asterix or the usual negative nancies if we pull this one through.
I fire people with your mindset.
Just hope we don't bungle 2nd as people will refuse to see we've progressed it we came 3rd
Some of those individuals need to look up on the definition of 'supporter'
Liar!
Huh, did I say it was easy? You think it's the same without fans?
Nowhere did I say it was easy. Just not the same. It's great(I said I was proud of them), but for sure different without packed stadiums.
1. this is a jinx thread if I ever saw one
2. who tf cares about away record? :/

^^ this. For me it's right up there with the "top-four trophy". Ironically, Arsenal used to be good at that too...
Shaw,in his post Leeds interview, more or less confirmed nobody gives a feck about this record within the club.
Pointless record when the matches are played in empty stadiums, also not a comparable to previous records for the same reason.
Thank feck for that. If they did, I'd be worried.
He’s lying to keep the pressure off. Everyone knows this is huge!
Wouldn’t that apply to any trophy or achievement this season? It’s being played under very different circumstances.
No. Winning the league means playing half your games at home and half away, so any home/away (dis)advantage is cancelled out.
This "unbeaten away trophy" is only about not losing away, which is easier than in previous seasons due to a lack of fans.
To some point it might maybe, but the home and away records in particular really can't be compared to years when we had fans in the stadiums, its just common sense and the reasons are obvious.
There’s always a Debbie downer, glass half empty, energy vampire ready to pounce.
Brilliant record so far by the way. Loving it!
No the Ole out, everything is shit won't allow it. This team is grinding out results and showing a bit of grit while doing it. This is a great achievement.
What's with all the polarised responses.
Yes, our away record is a laudable achievement and it should be highlighted.
However it should also be contextualised with the fact that we've had no fans in both home and away games in what has been a rather unprecedented time in football.
Why can't we just leave it at that instead of either attacking the record or heralding it as a supreme achievement?

Arsenal fans have been going on about it for years and years. Time to end the madness "hurrrrr durrrrr we had the invicibles unbeaten for X games hehehe".
Is it easier? Who else is unbeaten?
Until the time we win a PL, every discussion has to be a unshaped lump of constant moaning, self-loathing while praising our opponents and rage at different people.
Agreed. Never considered them to be the invincibles. However, they won the prem against SAF's United which is remarkable. My whole point was that when it comes to Manchester United, it does not really matter what your run/record is unless it gets you trophies. The reason I reacted like this is that some people post on here and think that everyone needs to agree with them on certain topics without looking into context. They also call posters who dare to oppose their views cnuts. Just wanted to make sure they taste their own medicine.
It's definitely been harder this year
Just imagine if there were fans in the stadium urging the home team on to throw everything at us in the dying stages
We'd easily hit them on the break and take all 3pts

I care strongly about us not losing games, so that goes hand in hand.
The trophies is what matters, but I guarantee you the players will think its a cool thing to have done when they look back.
It's a nice achievement to have, especially if we can keep it going till the end of the season, but I would have swapped it for a trophy.
They'll find something to moan about then too.
@MyOnlySolskjaer my pitchforks are ready for you.
So predictable. Time to ban OP
A win and a loss would be better than two draws. I’ll keep saying it.
Okay we're putting the pitchforks away for now. Let's hope they rust there for a long time.
