Never mind the zero losses, having only 23 draws is pretty insane.

After the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half, I was sure we were going to lose the record today.

A statistical proof of what happens when you give our home crowd a reason to get excited. This stadium is a burying ground for teams as big as Arsenal and Liverpool

The impressive thing about it is that we won nearly all those games, not just 'not lose'.
Its hugely impressive, especially as a large part of that timeframe has been post SAF, when we havent exactly been the best mentally.

It's just an incredible stat. Another one that would be interesting to see is the amount of games won/lost/drawn from losing positions at half time, maybe in the SAF and post-SAF era.

I hope ETH can instill the importance of making OT a fortress once more. You can't underestimate how important it is to almost guarantee 15/16 wins a season at home. Win 10 away games and you're in with a great chance to be in the mix come April.

It’s actually impressive that none of Moyes, van Gaal, Mourinho, Ole, or Rangnick managed to cock that stat up.

Guess for some of them, leading at HT was the trickier part.

That will never end. Everyone around the club is well aware of that and will make sure an academy player is always in the match day squad.

Well yes. Van Gaal seemed to be 0-0 at half time almost every home game.

One of those records where I'm surprised we haven't lost it over thr last few years as it feels like practically every other positive record we held, was lost.

I think in a way it probably helped to preserve the record. We have been so crap that there was a bigger chance to see pigs fly than us leading at HT.

This and the home grown players being in the squad record are probably the only ones left now.

Remember the couple years after Fergie left where every time we got beat it was the end of some kind of record against that team.

Don't give it too much attention. Pep will be asking his team to let us go 1-0 up then have Haaland put four past us in the second.

Kinda surprising that we still have some 'record' like this not broken. Just in the first Moyesi season, we got many of them broken..
