No rituals, but I haven't shaved since before the Blackburn game as I fear that it would lead to certain defeat. Looks so grey and wild that I may apply to join The Mad Hatters!

Sounds like most of us will be wearing the same clobber as we have for the last month, we will start recognising each other soon 😂

I also have a very winter based wind proof jacket I’ve take with me to every game for the last 6 games, it will be with me Saturday too.

So if you see someone in block 138 wrapped up, sweating and suffering from dehydration, feel free to come and say hello 😜
So much for “Blind Faith”

A weird one for me and I think it comes from my Championship Manager days.....

I cannot look at the opposition team sheet. As it seems to be the player's name I focus on or take an interest too seems to score the winner.

I did that in ‘87 with Gary Mabbut
 
For some reason and I haven't a clue why.. I have to have a cup of tea in a certain cup at the beginning of the day on match-day ...I always remember one occasion I was running late but at the back of mind I needed my lucky cup of tea ..Because of timescale I managed to only drink half ..
City were playing Shrewsbury away in div2 ..we were winning 1-0 at half time but lost the game 2-1 ..on the coach on the way home I blamed myself for only drinking half a cup of tea

Haven't got this season's home shirt but went to buy it after the Boro game, wanted to be up to date now we've made it to Wembley. Then realised wearing last season's has got us to where we are so didn't.

I wear a pair of jockey shorts. Worn them every day since we were relegated from the Premier League. Promised myself I wouldn't change them until we were back up there! Bit smelly and threadbare now though! 🤣

If I record the game to be able to watch the game back the following day we lose
When I don't record the game, we win
I started to notice this around 3-4 seasons back and really can't remember being able to watch a win (unless via ifollow without commentary !! Game was recorded vs Sunderland (H) by accident, series chosen instead of single match for the BC vs SU game the night before - don't worry it's been adjusted and I've checked several times!

I banned my Dad from watching the game at mine cos we kept losing, but then we've carried on losing away so not sure it's helped...
