    Ok last year when i renewed i got a this seasons replica shirt which i havent worn its still on a hanger on the back of the "fettlin' pen" door now i'm not going to wear it whilst ever this magnificent run continues. A Jedi superstitious you may say but i remember an old tale my grandfather used to tell me ( i'm 64 so it was in a galaxy far, far away) but as a 14 year old he was warned not to walk under this ladder at work but grandad being grandad he did and 53 years later he had to have 3 teeth removed!, call it coincidence if you like but i for one am not risking it

    That's funny :)

    I never have a shave on matchday. The last time I did was 1996 and we lost 1-3 at home to QPR to end the 5 game winning streak. I said never again:eek:

    You must have one hell of a beard now if you've not shaved since 1996 upload_2021-3-18_11-32-7.jpeg

    I'm superstitious. If me and Laura have a row. We lose. If kama is spoilt whilst watching Soccer Saturday we lose. If the phone rings during stoppage time we concede a late goal. If the commentator during a horse race says so and so is stalking or stealthy ready to pounce, making steady, smooth headway or eye catching progress the horse in question invariably loses as they've put the mockers on.

    I've got one that still stands from years and years ago. Whenever Paul Gibbs was selected, we never seemed to win. It was so strange...

    It was the same with Paul Digby. Got all the rave reviews and went away with the England under 21's and trained with the senior squad but whenever I saw him play I thought he was total sheet. He must have only played well away from home.

    That's right, she calls me when she sees you put them on.

    Edited in: too far?

    I've got a pair of red football boxer shorts that I've skidded in that many times they're stained brown on the inside. I love putting them down for the wash for Laura to put in washer. There'd be something wrong if she didn't gag going through laundry basket. I daren't throw them out.

    I'm a proper romantic, lots of arse slaps and dry humping when the kids can't see. All the moves.

    In the current run I use the same empty PG tips box as a riser for my tablet on which I am on Zoom to mates while the game is in the laptop. I hold a lager in my hand when opponents look to be getting close to our goal. At Oakwell, I usually have to lean against the stand on a certain leg while runs happen.
