The blame |
St Totteringham's Day was the day when Arsenal fans celebrate the fact that Tottenham can no longer catch Arsenal in the League. It is a movable feast, but usually falls in March, April or May. It was the day to collect on bets made by over-optimistic Spurs fans in the close season who think that "this is the year". See the links on the left for more information. Sun, 24 Feb 2013
Next match is vital: Spurs away
If that doesn't happen it could be grim. In the meantime we need West Ham to beat Spurs on Monday. If they do then we can overhaul them by winning at their place. Which would be very pleasant, if unlikely. Best case is we'll be two ahead with 10 to go. If on the other hand West Ham fold against Spurs, and we lose at the lane, then the worst case is Spurs being seven ahead with ten to play. Thats a big gap. (It's what QPR have to overcome to catch Wigan and Villa.) Not impossible, but we rely (again) on a Spurs meltdown. Still some consolation: we did win the League at WHL in '71 and '04. Which means we've won it at their place as many times as they've won it at all. |
