Now you know the feeling we Gooners (generally) carry over Spurs


It's all warm, lovely and we keep it to ourselves


Enjoy, it won't last.

Possibly because Spurs have only just confirmed in the past few days that'll we'll definitely be playing at Wembley next season. Spurs playing West Ham at the Tax Payer's Stadium on Friday night should be a cracker. Our third London derby in a row... or fourth if you include Watford.

Not sure why the uncertainty, TV showed an aerial view of the new and old grounds, and it doesn't look like the new stadium can be finished without first knocking down WHL. Anyways, a very dominant performance by Spurs. Too soon to say if there's a power shift in North London, but Spurs definitely have the better team right now, both on and off the pitch.

Another disappointing home draw for us, think we should just concentrate on the EL and forget about top 4...

Celtic fans know how you feel. Probably because it was only 5-1 and only 36 points. Noone likes to see that.

Even I was a bit embarrassed by the coverage we got, but wasn't practically everything else (relegation/Champions/Champions league etc) settled by then so the media had a bit of an overkill? - the club also produced some decent 'content' (yuk) in terms of films etc - pity they aren't as good at buying players :(


PS Plus a little bit of old school shenanigans to finish the day off - not sure Spurs will get 20,000- 30,000 showing up without tickets but just to say goodbye

I don't think we'll stop your momentum this year to be honest - of course if we hadn't conceded 2 goals in the last 2 minutes at WHL both of our seasons would be over now whereas we both need a result!

Good stuff - still on roughly the same spot (and in that case I can understand there not being a huge good bye)

Fair play. That's your little cup final won. And you deserved to win. No complaints here. We were never going to win the league anyway but I suspect we'll still finish second. And if you'd said to me at the beginning of the season you'll finish second I'd have bitten your hand off. As Arsenal fans were always keen to remind us - "mind the gap."

    • a (clean) nappy/pamper, it was like it had snowed in the garden.  The absorbent stuff inside spread everywhere.  Can I have my gardening gloves back please.
    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
