I've had a lucky large glass of port. A new ritual, but I'm willing to give anything a go. Could take years off my life expectancy if it turns out to be a winning one.

Am wearing my Asics Villa ankle socks which haven't seen the light of day in years -especially since I haven't worn any Villa colours since that pillock took over...

Junior's swimming lesson has moved from 0800 to 1000.  Might bring us the luck we need.

Had both of my fingers crossed for the last 10 minutes of the game today.

Had a beautiful cashmere Villa scarf for Christmas. Literally threw in it the loft upon return from the match on Tuesday. It is never coming down.

When you say that you literally threw this most agreeable garment in the loft, do you mean that you wrote a short story or novella about this epic scene?  Or maybe it is an allegory about drugs or the celestial paradise - albatrosses and suchlike.

I did the same, the logic is I rarely if ever win bets, so it's a kind of a superstition.

Today I am cooking wedges instead of roast potatoes for Sunday tea. I'm hoping that the subtle variation in tuber preparation will make all the difference for the Spurs game.

Up yours Redknapp!

A question for you all.
On Sunday should I wear my 1971 LC Final shirt?  The reason I ask is if I wear it and it all goes tits up it'll be my fault, on the other hand if I don't wear it and it all goes tits up it'll still be my fault.
I'm just trying to share the blame around a bit.

Since the Bolton game I have reverted to wearing my other watch and have moved my claret and blue girly bead bracelet from left to right wrist.

Doing a curry in the slow cooker, but with NO MEAT.
Simply potato and spinach.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it Redknapp!
