I know that Arsenal, having fu cked up the title so many times
Look on the bright side chicken head. We lost as many games last season as you've won the Premiership, so thats one record you can call your own.

It may of been said before and i apologise for pointing this out but...
i shall say it
Tottenham have won the League twice, and never landed it on their own turf..in 1951 and 1961 they landed the title on other grounds...
now lets see
Arsenal have also won the League but its 13 times...
now two of those have been won at
WHL...amazing but oh so true
Tottenham have never won the league at home
Altogether now
"71-2004"

I find it highly ammusing that Arsenal have won the league at White Hart Lane more times than Spurs have...

:confused: why the significance of WHERE you finally gathered enough points to win the league? who cares? just because you happened to be playing us late in the season - it's not like we failed in any special way - in fact, you couldn't beat us at the lane yet again (for all the bull, both your team and fans usually seem to fail to produce at ours. your fans especially, who cower silently in fright for the vast majority of WHL games, audible only when you score.) and if chelsea hadn't fcuked it up, the draw we got would have been enough to make you wait another week.maybe if you'd thrashed us i'd understand all the fuss. but i don't really care that it was at WHL that the inevitable was finally confirmed.

Good point

Thats because your average Spurs fan is a skin headed hooligan. Not saying YOU are... but when Riot Police have to requisition a school to defend away fans from a team marauding because they lost - its sickening

Whats your point? And so what?!
Titles are generally won over an entire season, as was Arsenal's last year. Drawing a game at the Lane because of a spastic goalkeeper and therefore making the title a mathematical certainty is all very nice, but the title was already Gooner because of Rio's ban and Ranieri's tactics.
And we've still won more European trophies than you. Arse legends? My arse.

It's not sickening, its indicative of the way teams fanbase changes once once they've had a bit of success. The Arse lot used to enjoy a barney, but now they're getting as bad as ManUre fans. Bunch of 'Slebs' suddenly creeping out of the woodwork.
Keep winding up Spurs fans with 'Oooh, we've won it more times than you at the Lane.' And the average Spurs fan will reply 'Come here and say that.' Then, when the Arse fan runs away, they'll get a brick stuck down their throat.

I rest my case. Football hooliganism isnt big and it isnt clever. The reaosn Arsenal fans dont get into barneys any more is cos our job element can no longer aquire / afford tickets.
Im sure they are sill around, but thankfully not at the ground.
If your only defining point as a spurs fan is "we got more thugs than you, geeza", then I pity you.

You all don't know what you are talking about because Arsenal are not the most hated club in England. That title goes to Manchester United who not only have people boo, yell, curse,
As an unbiased and well balanced football fan, I have to agree. All teams when going through a winning phase certainly get a fare share of ribbing from rivals. Some goodnatured, yes and some not so good.
But I've never before seen the downright "HATRED" you get at a ManU match. Or even 2 people just talking about ManU. It really is Hatred, not good natured rivalries there is no humour involved at all.
I've been in pubs near other teams ground's before and after matches and had so much fun. I still e-mail a guy I met 25 years ago at Highbury. Sunderland was another place, I thought it'd be hard core and we'd better be really polite. Wrong, great fun that night. Chelsea, the ones I understood were fun, even the ones I didn't.
But Old Trafford....What a mean spirited bunch of humourless sods...!!! They deserve each other and their miserable town and team. Their police are just as much fun trying to provoke trouble.
I thought I saw Giggs smile one day....and then he burped.

Sorry, I hate to troll, but all I hear of Arsenal fans, apart from the endless boasting about having the greatest team on Earth is the 'and everybody hates us don't they?'
I think a bit of appreciation is required to drag the gooners out of their doldrums. I for one can say that I absolutely hate arsenal with a passion. In the Oxford Dictionary, this is the definition:
Arsenal; [verb] a) A stockpile of offensive weaponary and ammunition; or b) sub-human scum originating from Woolwich, which in the beginning of the 20th century spread like a pox north of the river infecting the residents with red and white skin lesions, hysteria and self loathing.
I know that Arsenal, having fu cked up the title so many times, still demand the loyalty of it's frustrated international fans who feel put upon because they didn't change their allegiance to Man Utd, or as you yanks like to call them, 'the red devils' (who the fu ck are the red devils?).
But please, can all you none gooners show your appreciation for the ravaged fans of the plastic half of North London and massage their deflated ego's as they witness another 8 point collapse.
(Cue no one but Gooners posting with cries of 'Spurs are going to get relegated' 'What have spurs ever done' 'You only won it in black and white' etc. etc.)
In the early 1960's Salford Rugby club toured France wearing red shirts and became known as "The Red Devils". Manager Sir Matt Busby liked the sound of it, thinking that a nasty devil is more intimidating to opponents than angelic babes. He declared Manchester United should also be known as the "The Red Devils" and soon the club began incorporating the devil logo into match programmes and scarves. In 1970 the club badge was redesigned, but now with a cheeky wee devil in the centre holding a pitch-fork.
Don't blame yanks for the use of the word 'red devils'. It's not made up and maybe next time you'll check your facts before showing your ignorance!

Interesting post there. He probably doesnt realise that every club has a nickname...
Arsenal = The Gunners
Tottenham Hotspurs= "Wet Spurts", no its "The Chicken Heads" - ahem sorry - SPURS!

As a Liverpool fan you can not be unbiased.
To think Arsenal does not lose an EPL game all year and it still can not compare to the greatest season by an English league team ever!!!!
1999 Manchester United!!!!!!!!! TREBLE! Come on i know you guys can say it- Treble!! You can't enjoy it but you can say it
Now i know there will be a lot of treble envy going on here after i just told the truth, but hey its just jealousy it wont hurt.
