St Totteringham’s day draws ever closer
Here’s another guest post, this time from Arsenal fan Goonblogger from The Goon Blog.
The ultimate day of Spud mocking could come at our game against Wigan if we claim three points and the Spuds draw. I have been mocked several times by disgruntled Spuds about celebrating the fact they can no longer finish above us but it has happened so many times now its become an annual event…up there with the likes of Christmas.
With Sp*rs looking about as consistent as…well Sp*rs…..I have a feeling that St. Totts will fall on 11/04/09 this year and I for one will be celebrating it with copious amounts of laughter and alcoholic beverages.
Arsenal on the other hand are looking like a team possessed and really going for glory, the return of the non-spitting Spaniard and club captain Fabregas, along with the Tognator, Theo Walcott and soon
Robin van Persie and Eduardo, the attacking talent available is probably the most potent and classy than is available anywhere else, Europe or worldwide.
I’m sure all Gooners remember that last years St. Totts fell at the earliest time ever…the start of March. I will give you a rundown of a few previous dates:
07/08: 9 March 2008.
06/07: 21 April 2007
05/06: 7 May 2006: Lasagne anyone?
04/05: 2 April 2005
03/04: 13 March 2004
02/03: 24 March 2003
Pleasant reading from an Arsenal perspective and St Totts looks sure to be an annual event for many years yet!

‘til next time arsefans.
Up the Arsenal!
This rivalry between spurs and arsenal is all well and good but I think a mates girlfriend put it best after spurs beat arsenal in the league cup, she stated – “if they haven’t beaten you for so long, how can they still be your rivals”
I think, ‘they just are’ is the only real if what childish answer to that one.
As for arsenal finishing above them, again, barring CL qualification it will be slightly empty, again, unless they win either the CL or FA Cup.
St Totteringham’s Day (what cunt made that up?) is about as pointless as West Ham celebrating for finishing above Millwall.
indeed it was here yesterday!
So there it is then, arsenal will finish above spurs, again, but have come of last against their real rivals (the top 3), again.
I mean at least spurs got to a cup final, even if it is the gayest cup competition in world football, it was still a day out and chance to have their faces painted.
As for spurs, their little battle with their main rivals now, west ham, wigan and fulham is still on, all is not lost
