It did for Martin Foyle, and now Saturday's opponents Woking will come to Edgar Street with boss Garry Hill the reigning Manager of the Month.
The former Dagenham boss has seen his side win all four of their games in March to move clear of the relegation fight. The run included wins at both Luton and Barnet.
The first effects of the curse will be on show tonight when they face Forest Green, one of five games in the Conference.
The Bulls' relegation rivals Dartford and Southport are both also in action. The Darts entertain Luton, with a home win meaning the Bulls would enter the bottom four for the first time. The Sandgrounders entertain Braintree having recorded five straight home wins.
