St Woolwich Wanderers Day

[AjaxDeSuperYids]

If the nomads fail to win at old Trafford today, then for the second season in a row we can celebrate St Woolwich Wanderers Day.

I hope that isn't a thing that catches on. It's good to finish above them but celebrating it shows a lack of ambition and class.

 

[Gutter Boy]

Yeah - we shouldn't be misappropriating their thing.

We have our own one that pre-dates that anyway - St Hotspur Day on 14 April (the anniversary of the 1991 game)

I hope they beat UTD... We can still finish second.

Finishing above the league's 6th/7th best team is not much of an achievement.

Nah i want United to hand Wenger one last thrashing

Nah i want United to hand Wenger one last thrashing

I don’t really care either way - a few serious injuries and disgrace brought on both teams after a mass brawl would suit me. Oh, and a fist-fight on the sideline between Wenger and Mourinho.

I understand everyone's points but I like it!

It's not like this is west ham, it's arsenal!

All my years I've had to put up with them above us and so I'm crowning this St Woolwich Wanderers Day!

It will make them sadder - great!
It will infuriate them - great!
It will highlight to all across the country and the world that they don't belong in north London - great!
And the name of the day is actually half decent - I mean common, totteringham? How lame is that!

 

[bjholmem]

If Man United beat Arsenal today, let's at least have a proper name for the day. My vote goes to "Sunday".

It makes us look smalltime

 

[StephenH]

It makes us sound like arsenal.

 

[AjaxDeSuperYids]

It makes us sound like arsenal.

But we came up with st Hotspur day first.

I don't care it's my day and in a few hours I'm partying

 

[Rorschach]

Banter? Yes. Rub it in at every opportunity.

Stupid name for day? Please no.

 

[milo]

It makes us sound like arsenal.

And they only really started making a noise about it when they had little else to celebrate.

Football fans = noise!
Never has so much hot air been produced over so little. Not forgetting bake-off which still just shades it.

 

[Glenda's Legs]

One can celebrate being restored to one’s rightful position (last season).
After that, it’s just par for the course.
Enjoyable, but no need to lower ourselves to their level.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Wont be celebrating actually finishing above them, more the fact it means we can finish lower than 5th

 

[nayimfromthehalfwayline]

Agreed, Id rather we were above all that than willing to stoop to their level.

Scumday?

 

[ShipOfTheseus]

A zissen Arseover to one and all, stooping to their level or not.
