It may be termed as evil faith and a curse especially when the Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey finds the net and coincidentally, a famous person in the whole world kicks the bucket.
It is a record that has been constantly been surprising many with the rarity of Ramsey finding the net and when he does, the world mourns somebody. This has continued after another person passed away, the wife of the former American president Ronald Reagan, Mrs. Nancy Reagan when Ramsey scored another English premier league goal.
For the last eight years when theorists discovered this trend, several famous people have passed away, fallen sick or suffered serious injury immediately or few hours after Ramsey scores.
Ramsey was on the score sheet giving Arsenal the first opener during their match against Totenham last Saturday. But this only kept on building the wrong record especially with keen people who after seeing him on the field jokingly question who will be the next in death list when the midfielder scores a goal.
When questioned about that, Ramsey once said that things happens coincidentally with people taking it as a serious matter. And if so, some of the people who suffer the blow of his goals are neither good people hence maybe that could be the kind of the punishment they receive.
The first person to fall a victim of this believe was David Llyod Maredith in 2008 who died after Ramsey scored against Fernabache.
Later in 2009, Ramsey did not spare Portsmouth, and again neither did his kick spare the American Senator, Ted Kennedy who had severally emerged from horrific incidences safe and sound.
This incidence brought to attention many people who with fear closely began watching over him thinking where his next goal is headed to. During an encounter with Manchester United, their fears were confirmed when the Al-Qaeda Osama Bin Laden was confirmed dead just few hours after the match.
This year 2016, Ramsey was once again in the score sheets against Spurs and Director of Apple Steve Jobs made the list longer, one day after.
The same month when Jobs passed away, Muammar Gaddafi, the Libyan leader and a dictator captured hours after Ramsey scored against Sunderland before Whitney Houston, the soul music singer was found dead in bathroom.
In 2013, Ramsey shook the nets of his former club, Cardif City, twice and on the same day the film industry suffered painful blow when the First and Furious actor, Paul Walker was involved in a road accident as he was driving his prestigious Porsche car and died.
Few months later, Robin Williams was found dead. This came shortly after Ramsey scored during community shield against Manchester City.
When Arsenal met Sunderland in 2015, David Bowie died a day after. This resurrected the jokes concerning the goals of Ramsey and the death of famous people.
On January 2016 13, Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey scored in a 3-3 draw with Liverpool. Alan Rickman, Harry Potter hero —one of the greatest working actors, world-famous for roles like Hans Gruber, Severus Snape, and the Sheriff of Nottingham—was dead at 69.
And this resurrected the debate, who will be the next?
And as if an answer to their question, Mrs Nancy Reagan died. Generally it may sound as coincidence or seen as truth, but with all those developments, the moment Ramsey is seen next to a goal post ready to score, butterflies will fill the stomach of many as they wonder, who is next!
