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".

May the fourth...
... be with you. Well it didn't help either team: we both won 1-0: Spurs
with late goal (annoyingly) and us with Walcott's early strike.
So no change in our relative positions.
67 Arsenal (+31 with 2 to go) 66 65 Chelsea (+33 with 4 to go), Spurs (+18 with 3 to go)
Wednesday is still crucial. We'd like Chelsea to lose tomorrow and then beat Spurs.
| Arsenal | Spurs | |
| 8 May | Chelsea (a) | |
| 12 May | Stoke City (a) | |
| 14 May | Wigan Athletic(h) | |
| 19 May | Newcastle Utd (a) | Sunderland (h) |
To explain the colours...
| Key (as of 29/4/13) | already relegated | 32-38 | 39-44 | Safe from relegation | Chasing CL place |
Not much has changed at the bottom: but the reducing stock of games makes Stoke look safer by the day.
Haven't done this yet this season but here is the table that I use to show St Totteringham's develop...
| Club | Current points | Games left | (Maximum points) | Points behind | Points Left |
| Arsenal | 67 | 2 | |||
| Spurs | 65 | 3 | (74) | 2 | 9 |
... which says to me it is too tight to be anything but a last day St T's.
