its not wigan but blackburn (football sorry, but for the sake of helpping someone do their work) i always eat a candburys double decker before a match.

It start when me and my brother always got the train from warrington to blackburn every saturday and when changing at preston my brother would always buy me a chocolate bar, being my fav i always wanted a double decker. The couple of times we didn't have time to get one or i fancied a change we seemed to lose. My superstition was clinched when i had one before a manchester united game at old trafford and we won (first time in 60 years), but didn't have one against middlesborough and we lost!

now my mum gets me massive packs from costco just so i can have them on match days, seems everyone i know buys me them on matchday now as well.

Whe we are on our line I shout 'keep em out Wigan' and they never score amazingly!

Also every game I go with one of my mates Boz we always lose 2001 GF, 2004 CC, Catalans 2007 CC semi as well as a boat load of league games.

I only clicked on in 2006 when we went every game and never won a game so I stopped going with him and went with my girlfriend and we went on that amazing run of winning games so I always go to games with 'our floss' now and I've banned my mate from going.

yes i have banned my cousin from coming wigan games, he hasn't seen a live game that we have won since the early 90's, he went all the millenium magics and didn't go murreyfield. He went the saints cup final in cardiff (2004 i think), he went to brewery feilds this year and we all know that result and he came the grand final v bradford (2003 i think).

He has now been banned. He threatened to come up for the grand final if we made it, i'm convince fate heard him say it and made sure we lost in the semi. He also came this years cup final with the tickets being bought before the semi, and low and behold we got beat in it, same happened in 2007 with catalan. Fate knew he was coming so acted quickly.

He's the biggest jinx in the world.


Before you all think he's a glory fan to be fair he lives in cardiff, hence why he can only make the occasional game.

We live in Grantham in the East Midlands so for a friday night game we always do the following.......

Jump in the car , drive up the A1 and then onto the M62 , we then proceed to sit in our car for 1.5 hours near Leeds/Bradford until we can clear the traffic !!!!

It has taken us 3.5 hours before now !! It was a couple of years ago , we played Saints at home , and Renouf (I think) scored an early try whilst we were running from the car park (so we missed it live) and we then went on to lose 54 : 16 or something !!! Worst day of my rugby supporting life !!

If watching Wigan or Rangers on telly i NEVER EVER watch the tv build up!

Always switch the telly on for the exact moment it kicks off, uneducated and biased people talking about possibilities and ifs and buts only interrupts your mental thoughts... its the nearest to a superstition i have.

I have quite a few tbh to name a few

Ever since my first match watching Wigan against Halifax at the JJB (cant remember date only that My uncle took me with Billy Joe Edwards) I can never say to my mates that ''Wigan will win this game'' or that ''am confidant we will win'' it seems everytime i do so we get stuffed. So whenever asked if im confidant of a Wigan win I reply with a stern No!. And you know what it has worked more times than its not.

I can remember being at School and our next match was Saints away in 2008 at the back end of the season and my mate saying to me you fancy us winning? and all through out that day I was singing Saints songs up untill kick off. we drew that game and ever since then he is convinced Im a saints supporter.

Its seems everytime my mates Dad comes with us we always rack up 30 points or more its amazing really but the good news is that he will be a season ticket as of next year.

Whenever we seem to make a good start and I think that ''we are going to win this one'' we always seem to bloody lose so Ive started to just ingnore the voices in my head and keep focused on the match icon_lol.gif .

Before the match kicks of and the announcer goes through the team sheet I have to clap every Wigan player announced and boo every opposistions players Ive done this for around about 3/4 years now.

Hope Ive been some sort of help with your coursework matey.
