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."

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him

      It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By MCK100 · Posted

      @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
