Sir, – Further to recent correspondence (July 20th), I’m a Manchester United fan but a friend is a Spurs fan and has two season tickets for their stadium. He invited me to a Spurs v United match which “we” won 2-0.
He told me I jinxed Spurs and won’t invite me again. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – An elderly Galway acquaintance refuses to attend All-Ireland hurling finals as he has an entrenched belief that he will bring the team bad luck. I’ve assured him that he considerably overestimates his impact as they’ve still lost 15 finals (in his lifetime, and excluding football) in his absence. – Yours, etc,
