After 46 years, all superstitions and pre-match rituals have been debunked at some point.
This season, I decided not to worry about anything and just go and enjoy myself.

It's working out just fine so far.

Lucky socks that I've been wearing for two seasons now. Have hardly ever failed. Big holes in them now though so wear an undersock!

This season have added some lucky underwear too.

I've got 4 bikes. My oldest one has been used to cycle to the Amex ever since the defeat to Ipswich last season. I keep saying I'll use a newer one when we lose - but we never do !
PS I gave it a second chance after Brentford.

Just two for me, we park under the same tree at Mithras house, the only time we didn't this season was against Brentford, and I wear the same watch, one I don't really like that much, but it seems to work.

Not buying programme,stopped last season when on roll . Also entering ESU from the northern entrance rather than the southern even though southern is closer and walk right past it .My seat is closest to southern entrance so it means doubling back

so its your fault we lost at Preston.
Its this sort of wanton avoidance of superstitions that messes with the well rehearsed plans of the rest of us.

you are playing with fire!

On matchdays I always put my Rotigotine medication patch on my right arse cheek then sing to the dog, "we're the right side, we're the right side............". Then use the left hand stairs to the ESU.

Brought a scarf in January last year at the shop at the Amex. We won that day and I wore it when I made it to games. The spell was broken when I wore it at Middlesboro and then at Hillsborough :down:

Current "lucky item" is an old shirt.

Every home game as the players walk out i kiss the ring (on my finger) 3 times and rub my face. Forgot the ring for the Brentford game :facepalm:

Didn't go to the Reading cup game
