Somerset Red Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I'll be wearing my '30 years of hurt' T shirt. Red with the famous image of Bobby Moore (in white) on the front. Not that I'm superstitious, but......It was at Wembley. He wore the number 6.....on a red shirt, he was the captain. Oh, and his surname had 5 letters!

macco Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I'll be wearing my '30 years of hurt' T shirt. Red with the famous image of Bobby Moore (in white) on the front. Not that I'm superstitious, but......It was at Wembley. He wore the number 6.....on a red shirt, he was the captain. Oh, and his surname had 5 letters! I've not got a Wembley superstition, but a winning superstition. I've got in the habit of wearing the same things to the next game if we won the previous one... Most often this season, I've wore my Guinness baseball cap and City have won or drew each time. Late in the season, I wore a black BCFC fleece, especially when it was damp & cold.. I wore my black BCFC fleece and my 'lucky' guinness baseball cap, to the preston game. I therefore wore the same to the 2nd leg against Crystal Palace. It was only in the final minutes of the second half that I realised that I wasn't wearing my cap. I quickly fished it out of my pocket and put it on. Low & behold, Trundle almost scored, and what followed in extra time is now history! So, does anyone know what the weather's going to be like on Saturday? I mean, if I'm wearing a black fleece and black baseball cap, and it's sunny & 25C, I'll be.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockin-robin Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Superstitions......thats my middle name. Problem is, I'll be bloody boiling wearing my massive, fleece lined black jacket on saturday. I've let myself off recently though, I only have to carry it to games and not actually wear it all the time. Still a pain, but it'll be with me on saturday.

Kingswood Village Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I have so many stupid superstitions its untrue! I always enter the Dolman stand where my st seat is by exactly the same turnstile - otherwise we may lose! I have to have my phone in the same pocket - realised at half time in the palace game it was in the wrong one!! I subscribe for city text messages but it is bad luck to check the texts during the game - especially when we have scored. I never listen to a game on the radio as it is bad luck. I always say we are going to lose no matter who we are playing and I always big up the opposition. Needless to say this all drives the missus mad!!! Oh well - btw I think Hull will beat us and they look like a really strong team CTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Superstitions - every time I've gone in the East End this season we've won. Now, where bist that East End at Wemberlee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walshy-shuffle-carl-shutt Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Never go to matches by train. We always lose when i do. P.S I am going by car so we will be fine... i hope I used to have some many it was untrue more like i had OCD so i gave most of them up but i always play city songs on my ipod before the game and after have it belting out in the car plus its no longer a chore either. Besides since i started to BELIEVE i find that is the only thing i need. When we played palace i was discussing the game at the break was a bit down for some reason then i just thought or had a feeling we were going to do this, there was not a doubt in my mind. Belief and that was abundant at the ground that day you could feel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wear the home shirt - unfortunately something pink got in with the washing and hence it ran into the white of my shirt - we went through a real sticky time with 1 win in 12 - when I never wore the shirt , but after using dye remover and washing it literally 20 odd times all the dye came out - I wore it for the Preston game and the Palace games and hey presto....!!! Hence I WILL be wearing in again on Saturday !!! U Reeeedddsss !!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tin Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I bought a new t-shirt before the Preston game for the summer months ahead and have worn it to that game plus both Palace games. It's been washed and hanging up since last Weds ready for the final. Seeing as we've won all three of those games, I have to wear it again to Wembley.
