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".

Well... I didn't see that one coming.
Writing at half-time we lead 3-0. I won't post this until full time mind you, but a great first half.
Now, six games is way too early to draw any conclusions, but...
The opening six games for Spurs has seen them unbeaten:
- Two draws against teams in the top six (Everton and Liverpool)
- Four wins against Sunderland (bottom), Stoke City (second bottom), Middlesborough (15th) and Palace (ok, they are doing well in 7th...)
Meanwhile we have...
- Lost to Liverpool.
- Drawn with Leicester. I think this will look like a bad result this season. I could be wrong.
- Four wins against Hull (12th), Watford (10th), Chelsea (8th) and Southampton (surprisingly low).
So what conclusions can we draw after six games when we are 1 point apart?
- That there are 32 games to go,
- Spurs unbeaten status faces much tougher tests,
- The only match we have in common (Liverpool at home) saw Spurs do better, and
- Clearly both teams are in the hunt for the top four again.
To be honest I don't think this post does much other than say "I'm still here!"...
