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 1905-1906
ARSENAL by walk over
Again, Arsenal were the only London football club to play in Division One.
They also reached the semi-final of the FA Cup, knocking out West Ham (who they beat 3-2 away after drawing 1-1 at home) in the first round.
So Arsenal were the best team in London during the 1905-1906 season and 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.
