Does anyone have any pre match routines

Like good luck charms

If so what.

I try and go in same turnstile. and eat from the same place before the match.

 

Sit on the motorway for 4 hours and then a pint of Freedom in Old No 7

 

I have a pair of lucky pants.

They've stunk since early January.

 

A quick pint, usually in the Outpost, and that's about it.

 

Well you would, look what happened the last time you tried to mix it up.

 

Take the Alsatian for a walk, Two 1/2 litres of Kristallweizen unt a Jaegerschnitzel mit pommes, leather shorts on and off to ze game!

 

Beer.

Beer.

More beer.

Beer.

And a swift half.

 

I sacrifice two pigs to the Norse god of war.

 

Buy a programme from the same seller - buy a 50/50 draw ticket (always ask for one with an odd number -- never win!) - through same turnstile - always close my eyes when we have a penalty - never look at the time on the scoreboard for the last 20 minutes of the match.
Does all this influence the result - no - so why do I do it???? O.C.D. ????

 

Ok, here we go...

I never let anyone touch me during the match, if anyone does I have to 'touch it back off'. This can get quite awkward when strangers accidently bump into me and I have to try and subtley nudge them back.

I have to sing one of the Barnsley songs if one of the opposition get into our penalty box with the ball and always shout 'kick it out/clear it', either in my head or out loud (always have said that since I was 11 and can't stop now).

There's a pot dog on the hearth at my parent's house and we haven't been able to move it in years, if it accidently gets knocked during dusting or whatever my mum spends hours trying to get it back in the exact same spot and shouts at us if we lose the next match.

I know there's more but I can't think of them just yet, I'll update you as I do them during the match.
