ok it's a home game this weekend and I'm thinking football supporters are a superstitious bunch. Who (if anyone) has strange ritual behaviour they have to go through on a matchday otherwise you know we are going to lose. How about some examples of your weirdness for us all to laugh at. As i don't get to the games anymore I can't contribute here. Although I do think it's kind of odd that I don't like to watch the game when it is recorded, I think on some deep level I believe I can actually change the result by shouting at the TV when it is live. Surely it's not just me ?
I always wear the same Toon shirt on a matchday, until we lose - then I wash it! Sadly the missus has arranged for us to view houses from 2:30pm (I said she did it on purpose) - so, I wont be able to wear it today...
I foresee divorce soon ! I only married wor lass cos just after I started seeing her the Newcastle Barcelona game was on and she put off going out on her birthday so I could watch it. very noble ,don't think she'd do the same now. Oh okay maybe that was,nt the only reason,definitely helped though-I'll never forget Tino in that game
Ha ha! Yeah, it could end in tears... Funnily enough, when we first started going out, she bought me two tickets to a home match (I live down south) totally out of the blue, for me and my best mate to go to. There's been no such generosity since.
That's what I'm doing as well. Although I can't get to the games so I just wear it in the house when we're playing. But hasn't been washed at all this season.
Ha ha! Exact same here mate!! I've been thinking about wearing it under another shirt, for the house viewings.
I always have a pint in Tilleys at 2.15 and then walk past wor jackies statue and wink at him with my left eye
I broke up with this stunning southern lass because of Newcastle. it went like this. We'd been seeing each other a couple of weeks and she wanted me to meet the parents,so okay I'm thinking this can't be too bad . She was gorgeous after all. She came from a wealthy upper middle class family who were a bit posh and not to impressed with her seeing this working class geordie. Anyways they arranged for us to go to a Gilbert and Sullivan Concert (for ****s sake) on the day the an important european game was on and to meet me at the same time. Well I thought I'd give a go-how bad could it be. Needless to say after 5 minutes of excruciating painful crap I got up and literally ran out of there into a taxi and home in time to see the second half. Never saw her again ! Jesus that Gilbert and Sullivan **** is pretty weird can't believe they really like it. They probably thought the same about football
I wait for Mercury to line up with Pluto before dripping chickens blood onto a candle-lit mirror on the stroke of midnight before every matchday.
Ha ha! Brilliant! I have to say, the name Gilbert and Sullivan rings a bell, but I can't say I know why?! But it sounds like you made the right decision!!
In general, left sock on before right, same with putting me shoes on....im a weirdo. Watching the game, as the game is about to kick off, I have to do a "father son and the holy spirit" head, shoulders, chest thing...3 times! Then at the end kiss the badge and say "Come on Newcastle United Football Club" and keep kissing the badge until the game officially kicks off. If I go to the game I have to wear the same jumper...because somehow its lucky..! And people think i'm weird.....???! Love my club. If I dont do these things, we'll lose. You should thank me really..!! Oh and ive started a new one by putting our next game into my appointment calendar on my laptop counting down the days until it happens........ive only started this this season and we havent lost yet..!!! HTL!
