    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".

    A bad weekend.

    Well. Not so good really. Update delayed due to family visit over Easter!

    Firstly the table...
    GamesPointsPoints behind(games left)(max points)
    Arsenal3073
    Spurs305320(8)(77)

    We need 5 points: two wins. One win and 2 draws. Or Spurs draw and we win, or Spurs lose and we win. Or 2 Spurs defeats. Or... (I could go on)

    A quick look at the next two league matches for the teams: 

    Sat Apr 15                           Spurs     v Bournemouth
Sun Apr 16  West Ham  v Arsenal
Fri Apr 21  Arsenal   v Southampton
Sun Apr 23                           Newcastle v Spurs
    Looking at that I think St Totteringham's will happen on or before the 23rd. (Which given Arsenal's next game after that list is probably just as well.)

    One side effect of the week's results is now two more teams cannot catch us. On Wednesday 5th, Brentford's loss to Manchester Utd put them on a maximum of 70 (when we had 72) The tiny silver lining of the Anfield result is Liverpool can't catch us any more (now have a maximum of 71).

    On 5th April:
    GamesPointsPoints behind(games left)(max points)
    Arsenal2972
    Brentford294329(9)(70)

    And on the 9th:
    GamesPointsPoints behind(games left)(max points)
    Arsenal3073
    Liverpool294429(9)(71)

    They join Fulham, Chelsea, Villa, Palace, Wolves, West Ham, Everton, Forest, Bournemouth, Leeds, Leicester and Southampton.
