This malevolent beast (attached. It's the one on the left in case you're wondering) has been present at our matches recently, and I've noticed a bit of a dip in form since it started coming.
Are our players put off by its icy stare? Are they confused by exactly why Sirlagerlot brings a stuffed toy leopard to matches? Whatever the answer, the stats make horrifying reading:
With leopard:
W1, D1, L2
Points per game: 1
Without leopard:
W9, D0, L3
Points per game: 2.25
Is the leopard cursed? You decide.

Sadly, the only win was when I dressed as a Penguin carrying the Leopard. I don't mind being the 'prat with a cat', but the 'penguin with a cat', every week, no way. The only answer is ROADKILL.

I have no problem with the Leopard, I actually love it. A lot of fun and looks so realistic. But unfortunately after an amazing weekend for her, with Cirencester win and Cavendish up the high street. She seems to be a but of a bad luck charm  Shortwood and Rugby were bad. |

Fleet was worse than both Shortwood and Rugby for me, but I will take the Leopard to Chertsey next week. If we lose, I will ring the Cats Protection in the morning and get her re-homed at another football club.

I think the root cause of the problem is that we are referring to this animal as a leopard. I have done some research into this and I am definitely of the opinion that those spots are the same as those on a cheetah! Jaguars are also similar but, again, the spots aren't right.Now, if we are referring to him as a leopard and he is really a cheetah, no wonder he is bringing us bad luck.

To add to your stats Matt, Guildford have also conceded more goals (3.5 v 2) and scored fewer goals (1.5 v 2.5) per game when the 'Leopard' has been present!!

Eddie is right, it is not a Leopard but a Cheetah. He told me his name was Frank Leopard and he plays for Chelsea, looks like I have been sold a wrong-un.
Another point, how many yellow and red cards has Jack Guilford had with the Leopard in attendance.

Agree for sure now, after doing research, with regards to legs and face. Its a cheetah. I say we give her/him another chance and name. Bad luck created by bad animal identification. Boom Boom Let me hear you say Cheetah! Cheetah!

In the two games Jack Guilford has played with the CAT in attendance, he has been sent off... believe he was suspended for the other two...

Theres only one way to decide this , and that is to bring horace(fatboy version )and horish (cornish version) to chertsey next week along with the cheetah and then see outcome ,saturdays result will be interesting without the cheetah in attendance !

Shortwood and Rugby were bad.
