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.

Goal difference again settled this season's bragging rights, with Arsenal's 2-0 win over Charlton towards the end of the season being decisive.

The Gunners also met their North London rivals in the Third Round of the FA Cup and beat them 3-0.

Fulham won Division Two to return to the top flight.

 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.
