Multiply that by 2 there sunshine

it's 666 that some people consider bad luck

**pineapple stu** · 19/08/2006, 8:06 PM

I think 666 is considerably more than bad luck...

**Sheridan** · 19/08/2006, 9:19 PM

Raheny Red, in cricketing circles any multiple of 111 (a "Nelson" - from the erroneous belief that Admiral Nelson had one eye, one arm and one leg, when in fact he enjoyed a full complement of legs) is considered bad luck. This is the only superstition I observe.

**Mr A** · 19/08/2006, 9:25 PM

Hold on here- wasn't Nelson famous for winning- I don't see how the leap is made to it being bad luck! Sure he lost a few bits along the way, but the man had a seriously good record. Unlucky he was not.

**Sheridan** · 19/08/2006, 9:37 PM

The term "Nelson" was attached to the superstition retrospectively for the reasons listed above. I think it's considered an unlucky score because Australia have been dismissed for 111 (a low aggregate for a team) on several prominent occasions.

But on a side-note, get someone to chop your arm off and see how lucky you feel afterwards!

**Buller** · 19/08/2006, 9:55 PM

im lost....

Errrr - no ! We are (or were...) the League of Ireland, therefore the League of Ireland....!

To be fair, we split off from the north, so Irish League is theirs by right in every way.

I've now come round to the idea of IPL - Irish Premier League.
