"Slytherin had been on a winning streak, taking the House Cup for the past six years. Right up to Harry's arrival at Hogwarts. And probably the Quidditich Cup as well. (Harry was immediately informed that Gryffandor had't won the QC since Charlie was on the team, seven years ago.)"

Actually, Slytherin *has* won the Quidditch Cup for the past seven years in PoA: "And Potter--*do* try and win, won't you? Or we'll be out of the running for the eighth year in a row, as Professor Snape was kind enough to remind me only last night..." (US Paperback, p. 248).

Gryffendor(sp?) has won the House Cup since Harry's first year. They just haven't won the Quidditch Cup.
