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.

Newly promoted Spurs wasted no time in re-establishing themselves in Division One. Division Two Champions in 1950, League Champions in 1951.

They were also unbeaten against London opposition all season so bragging rights deservedly went to White Hart Lane.

Chelsea on the otherhand narrowly avoiding relegation. The three bottom clubs all finished on 32 points, but Chelsea had a better goal average. They were also bundled out of the FA Cup by West London neighbours Fulham (the Cottagers also knocked out Millwall).


 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.
