Same Clothes, No Jinx

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Now it's a well known football fact that when your team wins (especially after being winless) that if you change ANYTHING then any following loss is your own fault.
 
So, let us make it clear.  It is a Fever Regulation that you MUST wear the same clothes you were wearing for the win against Sydney, for the next game against the Jets.
 
Feverish, that means you too.

I think I can safely declare that a cape is not a piece of clothing... merely an accessory...

Four Kings, Monday 17:00.

WB4 Eva, Grover may not be an animal, but he better be there.

Hell no Surge... cape is a requirement, a necessity.  No changes, none.  I'm wearing my Kingz strip to the Four Kings and taking it off just before the match starts.  EVERYTHING the same.

OK HN... I'll pay that... but I'm not staying sober again!

Comprehensive research (verified by multiple respected sources) has proven that my level of intoxication (or lack thereof) has absolutely nil impact on the performance of the boys. However, it  it does have a definitive impact on the performance of my voice

Guess I have to go though the dificulty of removing my jacket from under the top t-shirt like I did at the game? Because hindsight tells me that was stupid and unessecary.

Thinking along the same lines I wore the shirt to the Sydney game that I last wore in the PSC win.
I knew they would win if I did.  I even backed them head to head and made some money.

prob not- though I find it hard to believe that in my only game outside the Feverzone ever- YF get commended for our volume and we have a great win. Maybe I should do PMW every week.

Talk of your pre-match stains belongs on another forum HKK

Geez, I recommend a wash before then and the clothes too, HKK, you'll just have to recreate the stains somehow....

The win over Sydney was the first Phoenix match this season I didn't wear my Yellow Fever t-shirt. Pity I know (because it's a wicked shirt), but it's not coming back on until we lose!

...and just to add to the growing body of "scientific" evidence that proves just how important this wearing the right gear is (NOT!!)....
 I gave my  "Who Are Ya?!!" shirt its first outing on Sunday at the ROF ..to break the pattern of losses thats obviously been caused by my 08 Rickie so far this season...and it worked! Up until this point the 08 Rickie had been my 1st choice.
 so its "Who are Ya?!!" now for the rest of the season, I guess!

  Improving,,on the up, a work in progress from Italiano and the Nix. Bring on the bathroom bling in '24! COYN!

You lot got me smiling with your efforts through the game ....had to laugh when the YF zone started chanting ..."Not the rugby sevens...its not the rugby sevens" at you too

I am simply devastated with the Monday game. And it couldn't be at a worse time, i've got a test at uni at 4.30pm....
 
In saying that I will wear the Grover outfit to the test, can't change a winning formula.

The "are you Wharfies in disguise" chant was the funniest thing I heard all day.
 
But that could potentially be becuase its about the only thing I remember... That and Ben sigmund being a folk hero.

After watching the Mersey Derby win the night before decided to where my 'Pool scarf (as well as my Nix scarf) on the basis that it couldn't hurt (plus hoping to run into the odd Toffee's fan and wind them up).

So will be wearing it again this week.

I'll be in Aussie tho' so have to remember to pack my Nix gear.
