    How to remove bad luck

    I think it was Barry Fry that urinated on all four corner flags at Saint Andrew's to successfully end a losing streak. Salt over left shoulders, realigning team shakras, rabbits feet, burning sage around the stadium - anybody have any ideas what the club or fans could do to change our bad luck?

    Perhaps some kind of exorcism needs to be performed in the centre circle to remove the gypsy curse? Surely that'll be more cost-effective than signing better defenders.

    Derby did that when at Baseball ground and after a ball mysteriously burst at kick off they went on to win 4-1 and avoid relegation. Might be worth a look?

    Could be, but I think all this is beyond our control. It's the universe evening things out. We had a thoroughly enjoyable season last year and actually won a penalty shootout at Wembley. Now we must suffer.

    Stopping the doomsayers with negative thoughts and comments from attending matches should work!!!

    I briefly dated a Danish girl in the 80s and the Danes have lots of traditional good luck lore. Maybe Bros didn't jump off a chair just as the New Year bongs started or didn't kick a black cat out of a barrel just before Christmas. Or, as in the song, maybe there is a lonely magpie at Meadow Lane that needs a friend for us all to be joyful.

    Maybe, but it would have the crowd. Alternatively, we could all be given rose-tinted glasses to watch the match!
