    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".

    St Totteringham's Day at Spurs. Again.

    Today's win means that Spurs will finish below Arsenal in the league again.

    I would have posted earlier but my host was down. It probably saved me from an over-enthusiastic half time post. But despite the attempt to make it exciting from Raya we got the three points.

    Arsenal3580
    Spurs336017(6)(75)

    This is the fourth time St T's has coincided with a NLD result, and the third time it was an Spurs. The previous three were 1927 (Spurs 0-4 Arsenal, May 7), 1975 (Arsenal 1-0 Spurs, April 26) and 2007 (Spurs 2-2 Arsenal, April 21).

    St T's is roughly a week later than last year (when it happened after the awful 3-3 draw at home against Southampton), and a game later for Arsenal.

    It is also the anniversary of St Totteringham's day 1928, a season which also had the fun of Spurs being relegated, and the 2014 St Totteringham's (we won the FA Cup).

    For those keeping score, it is the 53rd St Totteringham's day, which added to the 15 seasons Spurs were in division 2 makes 68 times we've finished above them.

    Sadly Forest couldn't help us out.

    Happy St Totteringham's Day 2024!
