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 were back to their League winning ways again, beating second place Manchester United by seven points.

In London though they didn't have it all their own way and they eventually won bragging rights over their nearest and dearest rivals on goal difference alone thanks to a 6-0 home win against Charlton Athletic.

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.
