mottaloo Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Nice lil thread, this. My superstitions were more when I was a spotty oik teenager. Buy a bag of American hard gums after getting off the bus at Perry Barr dog track, from some mad little newsagents. Enter holte end from witton lane side but would stand on the left side of the holte, so I’d work my way across the right side to get to the top of the left. Looked out for a bloke and his family who were there every game. He looked like Woody Allen so me and my mates used to always sing Woody woody, give us a wave” and we’d get blank looks back from Woody, every time. Bus back home in time to get the sports Argus and a 1/4 of aniseed balls from the local newsagents, then read all about the game on my way back home, my tongue going dark red from the sweets. Every game. Happy and uncomplicated times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
