dAVe80 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 My original plan was to watch it in a pub with a mate (Liverpool fan!), but he now can't make it. Another mate (Sheffield Utd fan) has invited me round to watch it on his big telly. The pessimist in me says to stay at home and watch on my own, so I can suffer alone if we lose. But then I thought - I watched the 2000 final at home alone. And the last time I watched a final at this guy's house was... the 1996 League Cup Final. Do it! I'll pay for your bus fare, if it pays off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted May 28, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted May 28, 2015 No bus fare required - walking distance. I'll do it. Don't think I'll wear the 2000 shirt though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 28, 2015 Moderator Share Posted May 28, 2015 I have certain pubs where Villa on the telly have an atrocious record. I also have jerseys that do better than others. No underwear superstitions. Doesn't matter which thong I wear really. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlwaysAVFC Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Predicting a loss That superstition hasn't worked very well for the last few years. Unless you've been blindly optimistic, I'd suggest trying something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAndLoyal Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 My 85-year-old grandma, before every game, says to us: "I hope the Villa win 66-0" I don't even know where that number comes from, she's just always said it. I think I'll be giving her a ring on Saturday lunchtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanVillan Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I collect flashlights and sometimes mess around with with them while wathcing the tube. There is one in particular that has seemed to have a lot of success while watching the Villa. It has a 4 out of 5 win ratio compared to any other light (20 or so) and has never seen a draw. No, Im not OCD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMelvillan Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'm leaving the Irish open golf early just so I can get home to watch the match in exactly the same manner that I have watched the last two cup ties. Me and my 4 yo on the sofa in our shirts, her with her Villa Monkey, me with my Hercules teddy. Poor wee mite kept wanting to leave the room in the semi but i wouldnt let her! - needed to bribe her with sweets and cartoons on the ipad. My da suggested just going to the pub near the golf - pffffft dont think so dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted May 30, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) I'm wearing my lucky jacket, I've got a lucky hangover, and my lucky mate Steve is about to give me a lucky lift in his lucky car. Oh hello... Steve's decided he's not going to the match today. Steve's going to the garden centre with his girlfriend. Does he want to support a football club? Or does he want to build a conservatory? Edited May 30, 2015 by fightoffyour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Wearing the same top I wore on Semi final day, unwashed of course. I put it on top of my wardrobe on that night and i. Has been their since. Also same bet from the semi final. 20P on the opposing team to win and £1 on both teams to score.

Stevo985 Posted June 1, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted June 1, 2015 I forgot to take the scarf I took for the semi. It's all my fault. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
