Jack Grealish (Aston Villa) lost his 20th consecutive game in the Premier League. So I wonder which players have done worse than that ?

  • Surely this has to be a player from Fort William FC ;)

    It's worth making the distinction between "most consecutive defeats in one competition" and "most consecutive defeats overall". Grealish's 20-game losing streak in the Premier League was interrupted by a three-year spell in the Championship, during which time he won quite a few games.

Probably a player of Darwen 1898-1899 (2nd division). This team has the record of 18 consecutive defeats as mentioned in the Wikipedia article about UK football records.

    The question already pointed out a player who lost 20 consecutive games. How would a player have more straight losses than that (20) if their team only lost 18 straight games?

  • The question doesn't mentionned 20 games What is the highest number of consecutive matches lost by a football player?

    It's the first of only two sentences. I'm not sure how you miss it.

  • Like @F1Krazy says, answer is not correct because Grealish's 20-game losing streak in the Premier League was interrupted by a three-year spell in the Championship, during which time he won quite a few games

  • This is exactly why I said that the distinction needed to be made. Regrettably, OP has not done that.
