When it comes to football, winning trophies is all very well, but all that really matters is who can go into work on a Monday morning with their head held high after a derby game.
It's all about bragging rights. |
London Bragging Rights League 1904-1905
ARSENAL by walk over
In 1904, Arsenal became the first London club to play in the English Division One after being promoted from Division Two at the end of the 1903-1904 season.
So Arsenal were the best team in London during the 1904-1905 football season and became the first ever winners of the London Bragging Rights League by virtue of their top flight status.
| Three points for a win, one for a draw, sweet FA for a lose. Should two or more teams have the same number of points, goal difference decides bragging rights.
Although in the good old days, clubs only received two points for a win in the League, the importance of beating your rivals means that no matter the season, three points for a win applies in the London Bragging Rights League.
