As superstitions go I have a strange one. This is the essence of it: as soon as I know the first names of all the Sheffield Wednesday players on the pitch, the team scores.
In fact, I’m not really sure it even counts as a superstition; it’s really just an observation. It’s happened before and it happened again tonight within seconds of learning the final first name (Nathanial).
Of course, it’ll stop working now. Obviously. Once the universe (or god (or whatever)) learns of a loophole like this then it’s closed instantly. I mean, god reads my blog, right?
