How many years since we won three games on the trot 3-1 ?

Without checking my gut feeling is that it might be the first time ever.

Might have a look later

I wonder if adding 'or better?' to the question might produce a result? Billy Bremner's mad little episode in the 80's perhaps?

Wish I put bloody money on today's result, I predicted 3-1

After a quick check - I reckon it hasn't happened before (league matches only). The nearest I can find is a sequence of 3-1, 3-0, 3-1 in 1979-80

We did win three matches in a row by 2-1 in 1924-25, and four in a row by 1-0 in 1981-82.

Great call Phil, and I must admit I had noticed and was going to check anyway.

Winning three games in a row scoring lots of goals has actually happened quite a few times, especally in 1946-47 when, amongst other things, we actually won three successive matches by 5-3, 5-0 and 8-0. The very unusual thing today is the exact score being repeated 3 times.
