Football Bragging Rights

When it comes to football, winning trophies is all very well, but what 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.

Arsenal won the League title for the second year in a row and their golden era continued.

But in London it was a different story with only Spurs unbeaten in derby games, giving them bragging rights as the best team in London. In the Cup Spurs also beat West Ham 4-1 at home (Palace fans might want to look away because they were gubbed 7-1 by Arsenal in the same competition).

So sorry Arsenal. Yes you won the League. Again. But with only one League win over London opposition and going down 3-1 at home to Tottenham means the other half of North London were crowing come the end of the 1933-1934 season.

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.
