Matchday superstitions/obsessions

still blaming myself for the Brighton debacle (after filling up at pump 13) and
currently unable to return to my usual west stand position as I am unbeaten in the east -

wonder if anyone else has got it this bad ?
 
i drag my gf along to every game possible because i think she has been to about 15games and not seen the blues lose
 
I have to predict a loss for Southend on the day of the game. If, when the predictions are flying around the car, I predict a win or a draw, we always lose. :p
 
fish house lunch.

and my brother has to say sh*t everytime we conceed a corner. not sure if we have conceeded less since he started doing that.
 
don't have any really....have a routine of getting to the ground close to kick-off from the pub and that's about it! :o

I think you should have one Al ..which should include buying me several pints each weekend...:)
 
I have a lucky turnstile which I have to go through until we lose, and then I change. Turnstile 21 at the moment.
 
My son and I must have had bacon sandwiches for lunch and we also must walk up victoria ave(from the high street), we do this religiously every home game.

I once had a pair of boxers that i wore every home game in the belief that they were lucky, they weren't and we went on a bit of a losing streak skidding down the table. I now settle for a mad dash from grays on a saturday afternoon to meet leeblue outside he clubshop by 2pm.
 
Think I might win this one.....

Must go as follows: Large battered sausage and chips from Oldhams, walk back down West Road and on into the club shop (never buy anything on match day, just look). On into the car park, find Leah in the Bluebelles and buy my half time ticket from her (never one of the others), on through the car park onto Fairfax, up Shakespear and into the West stand - always use turnstile 25. Get a Bovril, go stand down buy the pitch until the music starts just before the game and then off to my seat.

Evolved over the 1st half of last season, stayed fixed since. I challange ANYONE to be any more anally retentive over their prematch ritual :thump:

Have to say I'm a bit worried about your boxers skidding down the table.
:eek:
 
A woman who used to sit next to me the south upper used to cover her face and say 'sh!t' as soon as the opposing team entered our half!!
