I will wear my NORWEB shirtTWO EYED WARRIOR wrote:Those old enough to remember the 8 years on the bounce will remember Wigan players used to go down to wembley on the Thursday and pretty much do the same thing every year
Anyone else have any superstitions at that time and will you do the same again this time ?
Anyone heard when the players will go down to London ?

And I'll be wearing my 1985 Ellgren jacket. Only been worn at Challenge Cup Finals at Wembley. I just hope I don't look like I shouldn't be there, with all the fancy clobber the fans wear these days.

I'm still going to wear it, it's better than pink.

Last year I bought the black away shirt and wore it for the first time at the Bradford Away game......I have never worn it since.
Re: Superstitions ?
Have to have curry fri night. Have to go to Chandos bar near Leicester Square, have a dump in a pub bog with a broken lock. Sing song on the tube on the way up to the ground.
Will dig out the old Ellgren shirt

Re: Superstitions ?
I was too young for Wembley traditions... probably wetting the bed the night before due to age etc but apart form that, maybe start an adult one this friday/saturday!

Re: Superstitions ?
First rummage and I can only find a blue Ellgren Wigan Jersey, I know I have a C&W one cos I wore it at Grand Final,
More looking needed, otherwise it might be the Nike one we had a few years ago.
