Gonna piss that100! By Swindon in 94 although they had 42 games, imagine the embarrassment of topping that in 38.

Think Lutons had a few with that Japanese CB.Anyone know what the record is for most own goals in a PL season? We must be getting close..
With 6 we've tied with Brighton (22/23), Sunderland (13/14), Villa (12/13), Hull (09/10), Southampton (04/05), Wimbledon (95/96) and Man City (94/95*) in scoring the second highest number of own goals in a single season.Anyone know what the record is for most own goals in a PL season?

We can surely squeeze a few more inWith 6 we've tied with Brighton (22/23), Sunderland (13/14), Villa (12/13), Hull (09/10), Southampton (04/05), Wimbledon (95/96) and Man City (94/95*) in scoring the second highest number of own goals in a single season.
Leicester's 8 in 2003/04 is the benchmark.
*42 game season
With a 5-1 defeat to Newcastle, the aggregate score was 13-1. As we scored a goal does this we equal the record or is it Watford's record still as they lost to nil?We also hold the record for most draws in a 42 game season (18, in 1993-4) jointly with Man City and Southampton.
It is curious that we share the record for most and fewest draws with Man City.
There is another record we can have a crack at. The biggest aggregate score in a season is Man City 12 Watford 0 in 2019-20. If Newcastle beat us by 5 goals they will beat that. We have already broken the club record this season, 0-11 v Arsenal being our worst home and away aggregate score of all time.
Now this needs putting on the honours board!As it stands, we hold the following records, either outright or shared:
- First goalscorers in the Premier League (cannot be beaten)
- Most defeats in a 38-game season: 29 in 2020/21 (shared with Sunderland in 2005/06 and Derby in 2007/08)
- Fewest draws in a 38-game season: 2 in 2020/21 (shared with Man City & Spurs in 2018/19)
- Most consecutive games without a win from the start of a season: 17 in 2020/21
- Most goals conceded at home: 47* in 2023/24
- Fewest goals scored in a 38-game season: 20 in 2020/21 (shared with Derby in 2007/08)
- Latest goal: 103rd minute (Oli McBurnie vs West Ham, 21/1/24)
In the context of most goals conceded, there is a factor that didn't apply when Swindon Town or Derby County were strutting their stuff and getting stuffed.
This season, because of the measures to nullify time-wasting, games seem to last forever.
More game time = more goals.
More specifically in our case, more time to concede.
Another factor that has been put forward to help explain the record number of goals in the Premier League this season is that in comparison with previous seasons the percentage of penalties successfully converted has increased significantly.
Which doesn't, of course, alter the fact that our defending has been........
Thanks to Ozzie we just need 1 more to equal Leicester’s record.We can surely squeeze a few more in
