Some from me :-)
1 - I will not drink from (or even touch) my favourite Stoke City tea mug on a match day
2 - I will not do a poo on the morning of a match, no matter how desperate or uncomfortable this becomes. I did a poo on the morning of the Man City game in 1998/9, and look how that turned out
3 - Usual lucky underpants story, in that if we win I wear the EXACT same set of clothes to the next game, including pants and socks. Never wear plain black socks to the game just in case!
Anybody else suffer from this complete nonsense?

1. I predict we lose so we win; this however can be dubious as I predicted to win on Monday night ;D
2. Never hoover on The Saturday
3. And never come on the computer before the match

As I walk passed the Ritchie statue I always kiss my finger tips
and place the kiss on the Stoke badge on the plaque to the great man.
I enter the same turnstile that I used the previous match ,but only
IF we won our previous match ,but change if we didn't.But if we drew our previous match
and I'd take a draw ,I reuse the same turnstile.

I have quite a few rituals as well,silly really as we all know none of them make a blind bit of difference to the result.

Walk to the game down the side of the canal, even though this is a longer route. Stand at front row to watch the players warm up, but MUST be in my seat 30 rows back as the flag is carried up onto the Boothen End. Never at any point of the game go downstairs for drinks, food, or use of the toilets, no matter how much they are needed. Put the stop watch on as soon as the added time bored comes up.  |

The lucky Sal matchday bra is starting to show its age now but played its small part in Monday's result I'm glad to say, it's still a top supporter ;D

Oh god, i'll be here all day! I'll just spew out a few... ;D
1) Always use an odd numbered turnstyle until we lose at home, then swap to an even one until we lose again. ;D
2) Always go in with my shoes untied, then tie them whilst sitting in the seat.
3) Never ever have my hair cut on the day of a home game!
4) Don't wash my home shirt until we lose a home game. Apologies to those in Block 31... ;D
Believe me, there's more!

I did a poo on the morning of the Man City game in 1998/9, and look how that turned out I think i'd rather have a shit at home and have us lose a game than go for a dump in the bogs in the ground. Christ, that must be horrific if nature ever calls when you are inside The Brit. I'd be tempted to just shat myself and sit in my own faeces for a few hours. Probably the better option. |

At least you wouldn't die of fag fumes in your own seat :-)
4 - If for some reason I am moved off Bus 4 from the Knype/Bidder Supporters Club coaches for logistical reasons, we always lose. A point I've made to John and Kim a number of times!

I have one. I don't give a fuck about dozy rituals or superstitions that never have and never will have any bearing whatsover on the result of the game.  |

I gave in and wore my match winning pants on Monday, plus my winning t-shirt, went in Gate 18 (always a queue at the on when others are empty!), and we won. I try to tell myself it's nothing to do with what I'm wearing, which way I walk up to the ground, who I buy my Oatcake off, which gate I go in, but there's just some things you have to do!
