Turned on the radio coming in to work this morning and heard a song I haven't heard in a while. I don't want to jinx, but I'll just say it was a certain Queen song that tends to be played at the end of really big matches.

CHELSEA-CHELSEA-CHELSEA !!!

Omens - yes! I am ready to resort to anything, Scott. I'm waiting for my magpies. Some people think they are bad luck, but whenever Chelsea have a big match on, if a maggie comes into our garden, we win! At the moment, I'm ready to believe in anything and everything. I'm even toying with the idea of sacrificing the cats to Apollo, or doing a rain-dance - or anything...anything at all....

They also pointed out on TV this morning that we beat Real Madrid to win the Cup Winners Cup in 1971, on the 21st May!

(Which is also my wedding anniversary (20 years today)).

I am currently languishing in bed with a slight temperature and a dodgy stomach. This pm I should be heading up to SW6 to meet up with some very old Chels mates to watch the match.

The thing is, I'm feeling too ill to contemplate it and the last time I had to give up going to watch the boys with these particular mates was....

...the semi-final against Vicenza in 98.

So, do I

a) Stay ill, stay at home andhope for a similar outcome?

or

B) Get better, go to meet mates and hope there's nothing in all this hokum?

So, I have a CFC t-shirt that I've had since the 70's that I have NEVER seen us lose while wearing it. But, I have a new nice white strip that I am wearing at the moment. Don't know if this one is lucky or not.

So, do I

a) change into the lucky t-shirt just before kick-off?

or

B) stick with this one till half-time?

or

c) stick with this one all the way through?

AND, if I do change, will that jinx my lucky t-shirt? And, if I don't change and we win, will that mean that the new shirt is a lucky one? AND, how the f uck does my choice of shirt affect the way that matches turn out?

we not going lose

I wearing my tangerine and graphite shirt, which has no good or bad omens attached to it, so i'm safe.

I was tempted to give my more recent Sheva one a go, as him scoring the winner would be pretty fairytale, but the number 7 has fallen off in the wash (!) so I didn't think that was a very good omen...

I wearing my tangerine and graphite shirt, :

our dave as put an old away shirt on this morning

the red and white diamond one

says he doesnt know why it was top of the pile

I went to Tom Bells for some lunch earlier... now I never have salt, I never put it on my food, I never cook in it, eat crisps with it on... so what do I do? KNOCK THE SALT OVER!!!!! I'm standing in the queue, frantically reaching for my phone to call my mummy. "What shoulder do I throw the salt over?!?!?!?!" "Left one, with right hand"... I grab the salt, throw it over my shoulder into an old man's face. Like a crazy woman I retreat out with my chips and half run half walk home.

LOOK WHAT THIS GAME HAS REDUCED ME TO!!!!!

Well to be honest we arent champions, so maybe its not a good omen.

Stuff the omens anyway, we have them beat on the pitch 11 v 11.

Made me laugh in the current bun today, they rated Malouda 7, ok i dont mind that, but then they rated Essien and Carvalho 7 as well, madness i tell ya !

Just been wearing my shirt as work. Obviously everyone's taking the piss, and have made a few wagers with the London Mancs in the office to shut them up.

Tomorrow will NOT be fun if the unthinkable happens. I have faith though

You're a brave, brave man Tim.

All credit to you.

Trying exactly to do the same like the day we have beaten the Scousers:

- I have invited the same people which were there

- my wife is going to cook the same dinner we had

- a bunch of Boddington's is in the fridge (like always when we have big matches)

- wearing my white Umbro/Autoglass shirt

- have had sex in the morning

A lot of good omen of success!

- have had sex in the morning

Any good ?
