After tonight's display, I'm not going back this season. My Easton's: I have a season ticket and normally go to every home cup game. With all 3 cup games this season I have been unable to make it. Thus meaning that when I have not been there, Sunderland have played 3, won 3, scored 8, conceded 3... Due to being an obvious bad omen for the team, I'm staying away the rest of this season....
We've won under 3 different managers ........ keep sacking them and we can go all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never took you for a person with daft superstitions Marcus...Just look t the attendance last night and you must realise we need all the support we can get through the turnstiles..
The attendance was poor but the way we being playing, the cold weather & 15 pound a ticket doesn't help pal. even Arsenal put tickets on for 10 pound against Chelsea in the League Cup.
One thing that Short has missed is that my son has come up for the three cup games and the derby and guess what we have won every game he has been to this year. Any chance of a whip around to get him to every home and away game for the rest of the season. If we do we win the League Cup the FA Cup and finish in the top 4!
It was (apparently) my cousin Barry's fault that we lost in the cup final in 92. He went to the first round game, and had some chewing gum that he chewed through the match and we won. So, he wrapped it up and kept it for the next cup match. He kept on chewing it at each game, and we kept on winning. This happened all the way to the semi final, but then disaster happened. We went 1-0 up, and in the excitement of screaming and jumping around, Barry's chewy dropped to the floor and the bloke next to him stood on it. We won the match, and so Barry scraped the remains of the chewy off the floor, wrapped it up and took it home. He washed it, and considered taking it to the final, but decided in the end that he couldn't chew it again. We lost!
I actually had a ticket for the match on Wednesday but had to give it to my Mam as I was in the studio writing some stuff for a couple of singers I'm working with! Was gutted (although, after the Stadium, the studio is my favourite place to be in the world). Not really superstitious but I think there's a game against Spurs which kicks off late on a Saturday next month which I can;t go - if we win that then I'm not going back!!!!! (You all obviously know I'm kidding!)
