Superstitious?

[N20 Blade]

At the start of the season, I promised my sons that I would only change my razor blade after a league defeat or until promotion was ours. Therefore, a smooth start to the season quickly followed by a painful late October and November. After Wallsall at home, at least I had the consolation of not cutting my face any more; however since Fleetwood, it's been an increasingly painful business (superstition means I still shave daily rather than grow stubble/a beard). Hopefully come Saturday night I can shave pain free again supporting a Championship club. The children enjoy hearing me screaming in the bathroom, it means the run keeps going. Anyone else with superstitions during this season? UTB.

Serves you right for being a tight bastard

I've got a drop of aftershave left out of a bottle I started last year, I put a good splash on every Saturday before I go out Saturday afternoons.
I have a brand new bottle sat next to it,but I'm eeking it out till chesterfield at home!!

Yes. Whenever I go to the chippy, the Blades score a goal.

red undies on a match day

 

[elgoog44]

I salute Magpies.

I do too, and say either "Morning Mr Magpie", or "Afternoon Mr Magpie", the female Magpies must be incandescent with rage at me calling them Mr, but fuck em, they are Magpies.

 

[DifferentClass]

Lucky pants! Unfortunately, I am beginning to stink quite a bit

Same here but you're supposed to ask how they are as well.

red undies on a match day

Yep, me too...............and red socks as well. Very effective combo.

Ever since I started chopping off my fingers before games we haven't lost. Unfortunately I have now ran out of fingers.

How are you feeling?

 

[BushBlade]

I salute Magpies.

Me too. It pisses me off that I do but it's just habit now. I can usually pass it off as scratching my head or adjusting my glasses.

 

[Boxer Blade]

No Newcastle fans round here to say good morning to, one or two owls but I tend to ignore em, so for good measure I will strike up a conversation with a pigeon, loads of the them

Betting on the opposition... after betting on us all last season I changed tack, those worried about the title, I have a bet on Bolton to pip us...so we will be champs.. I'm really unlucky.. good isn't it..

 

[Kelso]

I didn't have any superstitions until my Grandson started with them, this season I have started touching our plaque on the wall at Bramall Lane, going straight to the toilet, always go in through the out door, wash my hands, have a drink,of water, and then out through the in door. My United shirt has also not been washed this season, and is in need of it. As I was leaving for the game last night, the wife said that shirt needs washing, put it in the wash basket. No way I have hid it, and she will not get her hands on it till we are the champions.

I can't believe I am 63, and never had superstitions before......

 

[Kosky]

I have a coat that is very much like Jake Wright. We haven't lost this season when I have worn it. I changed it however for Walsall away and Fleetwood at home and we all know what happened there. I hope we get it done soon as it's becoming a little warm wearing a winter coat.

So that's why they shit on my car, it all makes sense now..

 

[YES Blade]

I used to have loads years ago, but it was getting ridiculous so knocked them all on the head, maybe that's the reason we have been shit for years and ended up in League One and stayed there for 6 years? Or more likely due to the wank owners/managers/players (delete as applicable) over the years.

 

[TBW57]

If it's an afternoon kick-off I have my dinner before setting off for the match. If it's an evening game I have my tea. At the Lane I always sit in the same seat, which, luckily, is the one specified on my ticket.

 

[PokerBlade]

I made a point of crushing all my superstitions years ago but I always feel like you never escape some of the little rituals or lucky charms even when you know you don't believe in any of it.
