Silly superstitions

[Kentish Gent]

Over the years, when Fulham have faced a crisis (like now) I've adopted daft, superstitious habits to try and ward off the worst. For instance,before a crucial game (like WBG on Saturday) I only drink tea or coffee from my FFC mug. What do you do?

I always put our cats outside at kick off to save them from being launched rugby conversion style.

[The Equalizer]

I drink 4 pints of ale in The Brick before every game I attend.

After 5 years lurking I finally registered for this forum.

Desperate times.... :group hug:

I have so many superstitions you would barely know i do not believe in anything.

In the year of the great escape we took to eating an ice cream crunchie before every game and then when we went away we had to eat sandwiches in the car.  These were 'extras' not the only superstitons....  Oh and all the radios I owned had to be set to Radio London before KO, so that was 94.9 for away games, no matter what we were receiving.

We are off to the game saturday and I am not sure whether to invoke the traditions of 2008 or try and remain adult!

Nose - you forgot - avoid me before kick off

actually that tradition/superstion is wider ranging, I am not allowed to talk to anyone outside my immediate party except the programme seller and the people that sit around us at the ground!

Before every game I get a bag of chips from Fishers...  :dft011:

No real superstitions actually.

There's nothing like playing crap and losing to get rid of superstition.

I used to have a lucky Fulham mug but now I avoid it.

The only one I have left is Never Watch Live On TV!  I'd rather win and miss it.

I pretend not to care about the outcome before the game starts.  That way, she won't tell me to "grow up".  Oh, wait.  That's not a superstitious behaviour tic.  It's spouse management.

whenever i walk along The Thames on the way to home games i always look at the river and say to my son "If the tide's in we're gonna win, if the tide's out there's bit of a doubt" it never works but i still say it.

I have to buy a vegetable samosa and a flapjack and eat the samosa, even if I have just had a full meal and irrespective of how hungry or otherwise I am.  It has to be from the corner shop just south of Putney Bridge.  If we play towards the Hammy End first half I know we will lose.

I used to have to wear my silver elephant earrings and necklace, buddhist bracelet and orkney finnish beast ring. This season it has made no difference what I wear so I have given up with talismen

I think that's disgraceful.  Silver elephants are an endangered species.

Whenever I go to a home game - unfortunately (possibly) few and far between these days - it's the same meal at McDonald's in Hammersmith Station, the same walk to the Cottage, buy the same drinks cartons from the same shop, walk down the same street to the ground. Doesn't make the slightest bit of difference, but I like tradition and I've started to go with my mum more, we don't seem to lose when she's watching.
