I never give remotely realistic score predictions, only joky ones, as i don't like to tempt fate.

I've decided to change that though, superstitions are silly. therefore I will openly and seriously predict that this week we will beat bolton 276.3-1

Always have to drink from my Arsenal mug. If the wife forgets and makes my tea in anything else there is hell to pay. The magic has worn off the mug though judging by this season so far . So time for a new mug I think. Also when I had a season ticket and went top games regularly always had to get jumbo sasuage n chips from the chip shop in Avenell Road. Never wore colours to a game home or away after the Littlewoods Cup Final fiasco against Luton

I have had some over the years.

I had an "Adebayor" Togo shirt in 2006, and the first time I wore it was when we beat United 1-0 at Old Trafford and Adebayor was immense. After that I tried to make sure I wore it for every game.

I also went through a season betting on Arsenal to lose every week (only a quid). That season was 2003/04!!

Also, working shifts, I used to miss the occasional CL game. One game I decided to skive off work to watch it and we lost. After that I never took a sickie to watch Arsenal in the belief that it cost Arsenal the game.

Also got a teddy bear with an Arsenal shirt, that I thought would bring us luck if he faced a certain direction!!

The only one I have at the moment is not watching our games down the Irish Club, as every time I have we have lost.


Oh, and everytime I have been in Jersey and watched Arsenal we have won, including victories v Man Utd, Blackburn in the FA Cup semi final and the 3-1 v Chelsea in December.
If anyone wants to pay for me to go to Jersy every weekend just let me know!!

Three people I sit with have hipflasks which we drink from when we score, and only when we score. Having to drink from each can be quite fun when we win 6-0 Or something

It's mad, isn't it? I of course gave absolutely no effect on the game but always feel like if I'd done something differently we might not have lost

Will never watch an Arsenal game in the pub I saw the 8-2 in again though.

What spirit do Welsh people drink?

Living up north I can hardly go to any games, but have an arsenal rubber duck which I sit on top of TV for every game.. It spends most of the time on the floor now-a-days after the other team has scored and I've hurled it furiously at nearest person!

To be fair I have most of the rubbish they sell in the Armoury

Got your name on those stones out the front!?

No. But they're generally presents, aren't they? Couldn't afford it anyway
