Tottenham Hotspur’s new stadium will see action again
The mutual hatred between Arsenal and Spurs is hardly a secret, starting when the Gunners upped sticks from Woolwich and parked their tanks of the Lilywhites’ lawn back in 1913, moving into their old Highbury ground.
And the rivalry grew in 1919 when, somehow, the Football League voted to promote Arsenal and not Tottenham to a newly enlarged First Division, despite Spurs finishing higher than their neighbours in the Second Division in the last pre-war season.
It’s grown exponentially with titles won at White Hart Lane and many other controversial moments along the way – Sol Campbell, we’re looking at you.
But Tottenham are ready to land brilliantly petty blow on their rivals as they get set to open their incredible new arena.

Spurs would later sing ‘Nayim from the halfway line’ with glee, celebrating their rivals’ misfortune.
And they’re set to rub it in again – 24 years later!
It’s appears the club are selling shirts with names and numbers ahead of the legends game and while the likes of Steffen Freund and Darren Anderton will wear their own numbers, Nayim appears, according to one picture which has emerged on Twitter, to be wearing No.50 – a play on his remarkable goal.
And supporters are loving it!
