We NEED our own "St Totteringham day"

[Fulwood Blade]

Yes, another one about our porcine friends - but with a slightly different twist and a bit of fun with it.

On 5 Live this morning, 2 people were on about the Arsenal/Tottenham derby.

Apparently ages ago, Arsenal fans named a certain day of the year "St Totteringham day" - see below.

"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".

Considering our "Mind the Gap" game, we could do with a day name for our porcine friends, just as the Arsenal lot do.

So.............lets have some suggestions.

eg: St Porcine day" - St Piggy day" - these are just too common - we need one with a bit of class to it, like the Arsenal one.

Bit unfair on them when we'll be in different leagues next season. (Hopefully)

Great idea though. Beats this mind the gap business

Arsenal haven't had that day in years, Spurs are the better team now and have been for a while.

Also Arsenal have that day because until the other year they went close to 30 years being above Spurs, its been two seasons for us.

Rusty rout day

 

[BushBlade]

Have you thought this through? Arsenal have a St Totteringham’s Day? Did they celebrate that last year? Or the year before?

 

[LondonBlade89]

All up for a bit of fun but I think we're getting ahead of ourselves here. How many times would we have even been able to use this in the last 10 years? Arsenal can't even use it anymore themselves.

 

[Hamburg Blade]

The idea has been raised before. It does strike me as being a bit arrogant.

 

[JPBrods]

Not for me Clive.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Fucking stupid idea

 

[BerksBlade]

Let's not tempt providence, eh?

Maybe so, but since our promotion we was a league below.

St Christopher's Day.

From Wiki: In addition to being the patron saint of travelers, Saint Christopher is believed to protect people from epilepsy, lightning, storms, pestilence, and floods.

But we'd better be quick before they nab it considering the last two on the list!

 

[Deepred]

Simple...Bouncing Day Massacre Day

 

[blade too long]

Win on Monday be pancake day eve massacre

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Fuck the pigs day

 

[jaybee]

Fuck the pigs day

So that’s everyday, yeah?

 

[boo radley]

Eh?
Innit.

 

[Champagneblade]

St Christopher's Day or St Neil's Day

This will all end badly. Since when did we become arrogant?

Always been that way with some mate.

Only have to read this forum to see that a few have learned nothing from the last two games against the pigs.

If you choose to go down the cocky route for show, don't whinge when they do the same as it seems a bit hollow then.

Bloody hell, didn't realise we lost them, must have been away somewhere.

Surely you must have been drinking from the taps in S6

Arsenal, arrogant ? Never.

 

[8lade]

Today could be our 'Safe from Relegation day'!

 

[borbokis]

Bloody hell, didn't realise we lost them, must have been away somewhere.

We lost 0-0

 

[snootyfenooty]

We lost 0-0

Sums up the difference between them lot and us, if it really is a difference:

They win 0-0
We lose 0-0

Don't know which is the sillier really.

 

[Davalon]

You must have been away when some people were predicting comfortable wins in those games.

Drew two blanks.

Pigs or not, it will likely be a really tough game.

I also predicted we'd comfortably beat Ipswich and Rotherham a few weeks ago but we didn't. What's your point?

Could be that if you stop predicting comfortable wins, then we might get one?
