Superstition

I wonder how many people 'didn't' do something yesterday because they 'did' it before the last two England games and they played badly?

I was made to believe that England's poor performance was down to my £5 Asda T shirt that I wore the last two times. I didnt wear it yesterday and we won - so it must be true!

I know many footballers and performers do things in a certain order or way because of superstition, but I reckon many of us did that yesterday too. Even the commentator after the game said that England's red strip should be worn as their first strip.

I know it's all a load of baloney but now I have a dilemma - do I risk wearing my expensive England T Shirt again on Sunday for the Germany game just to prove it?

Can you imagine if we lost? Could I live with the responsibility of getting England knocked out of the 2010 World Cup?

  3. Clippy - oh I will. Would never be able to show my face again!Jo - mine would get a slap too, although I had to suffer his feeble attempt at one after having minor surgery on his chin a which back. It's all that fiddling on with the stubble thing that got me most.
