The Final - and superstition!

Ok... Its over midnight so its official - one week until final day. On the night 1st of May I said Id give myself 14 days with joy before letting the nerves out the last week. And it almost worked too. Ive had two great weeks celebrating beating the chavs (especially Mourinho!!) and being in the Champions League final -AGAIN, second time in three years!!! Only times Ive felt the nerves (read panic!!) when its been talking about the 23. Ive been trying to avoid that. But now its here. The last horrible week.. Gonna try and live through it..!! How superstitious I am, I dont know. Some I guess. But its more around the game itself. I believe that having the 2nd half kickoff gives luck, but that turns out wrong sometimes.. Singing You'll never walk alone before ofcourse, and then I cant move during the game. I cant put my hands infront of my eyes or close my eyes under penalties or freekicks (doing this gave frightful results earlier!!!) and some friends have this thing before kickoff on touching a "This is Anfield" sign in the ceiling above us where we are sitting in the pub. Other than that I dont know. Im gonna wear my LFC shirt everyday now the last week, for success, but for final day Im not sure... Two years ago I wore my old shirt, an away one, green and white and black. Should I wear it this time as well?? Or my new shirt, a red home one from this season? The men will be playing in red.. Uhh... But Im not watching the game at the same place as 05, and not with the same people either.. Will I jinx it all because of this??? I dont have any underwear for luck or other set clothing like socks or hat or I dont know. Hmmm.. Too late to make up a luck bringing charm now I guess..
Wish I had longer to prepare myself for this, and at the same time I cant wait!!!! COME ON YOU REDS!!!!
lalalaaa..

I'm not watching it the same place either

And I wore a different shirt to the one I wore. I have to wear my red one, I brought it back from home so I could be in the same colour as them. I think I'll wear red underwear, and jeans. No idea what trousers/skirt I wore last time?! I was with my bf and some guy mates last time, in The Queens Vaults, this time I'll be with a few people from uni and in the Student's Union. Aaaargh Watt you have made me nervous!! I have an exam before the final, and one 2 days after, I just can't cope!!! Aaaaaaargh!!

This is my first final (of any sort).

My LFC shirt ha snot gotten here as yet.

I feel like i HAVE to have it for next Wednesday....

As long as you have something red to wear, or something red close to you to look at, you'll be ok. That's probably my main superstition.

i heard this on the radio in scotland last night

hillsbourough happened on 15th april

liverpool have won the big one 5 times
this year would add one more to it

1+5 = 15

if you take the first letter from each city the reds have won it in you get

a.p.r.i.l spooky or what!!!!!

1+5=15


Im so excited now. and at the same time I cant think of the match. When I do its almost like this vacuum occurs inside my head
But still I think we can do it on wednesday, Im more confident in this than I was before the Chelsea legs.

       

Going to one of my mates who is also a Liverpool fan,watch the last Champion League Final with him,so fingers crossed history will repeat itself......

Does anyone think it will be my fault if we lose?! :'(

hello I'm gutted as i wont see the champs final as i have to work, come on you reds

Mate, call in sick, for the love of God!!

Does anyone think it will be my fault if we lose?! :'(

Know what youre saying, Nic. Im thinking the same thing too, hehe. Ahhh.....
Ive decided to wear my new shirt tomorrow, to blend in with all the RED. So Im in the same situation like you, Different clothes, different place to watch and different mates to watch with..

But I can try to comfort you with this, Nicola:
I watched the last leg vs the chavs in this pub Ive NEVER watched any football before. And I didnt drink any beer (had streptococcus down my throat and had to eat antibiotics  )  I was with a friend that dont give a sh*t about Liverpool (reeeally tiring!!) and there was a bug in my baked potato (a centipede!!!!!)
In other words, I spent the night as I normally never would. With a Spurs-fan, not getting pissed, on drugs, in a strange place, eating bugs... Maybe it means luck to not do the same as 05..?!?!?
We can hope, Nic! Enjoy tomorrow! 

That makes me feel a bit better Enjoy yourself

Watching it at the same place as 2 years ago, same shirt...had to book a half day so I could see the game. Worse case scenario that I could handle is 1-0 to AC at half time

hello I'm gutted as I wont see the champs final as I have to work, come on you reds

WHAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Do as Nic says, call in sick or pull a fast one in work, i'd just walk out if it was me - poor planning that mate !!  Hope you get to see it 

hello I'm gutted as I wont see the champs final as I have to work, come on you reds

Either get another job or tell them you have had a family bereavement or go in but cry off sick an hour into your shift after chucking up in a waste basket,but dont under any circumstances miss the Final for work!!!!..... I myself also refuse to work when Emmerdale is on.

Does anyone think it will be my fault if we lose?! :'(

I for one will blame you totally if we lose

I will wear my Champions League 2005 shirt,drink lots of Stella and enjoy the game on Sky Sports...exactly as I did in 2005.

Will wear knee pads this time though to protect me as I dive to the floor in despair as we loose a tackle or miss by inches.

2-1 to the us....bringing it home for a sixth time!!!

I did everything the same as in 2005...so superstition can go and get fcuked

  Even though it's sad and I agree with you Aussie, that made me laugh mate.
I done mostly the same things as 2005 as well.

thanks redkenny mate, when we win the Premiership next season fingers & everything else crossed, I'm not gonna believe in superstition
