step back and consider how lucky we've been, as fans, for holding the ascendancy over our fiercest rivals for two decades.
I can't think of a single club anywhere in Europe that has achieved the same with no interruption.
Thanks you Arsenal and, in particular, thank you Arsene Wenger. It's been a ****ing ball.
Stoke and Port Vale?
You ain't no modd bruv
It's been coming tbh, been a few last day scrapes in recent times. Like you say though, for 2 fierce rivals in the same league for all that time... Amazing really.

Porto and Boavista, Juventus and Torino, Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano, Bayern Munich and Munich 1860, Ajax and FC Amsterdam... shall I continue?
Anyway we're still going to do it.
To be fair to Monty though, I think he meant the local rivalries about which he knows a little.
I should have emphasised, there's no example of comparable sized clubs competing in the same league where one has held such a consistent ascendancy over the other.Originally Posted by Mo Britain less Europe
Yes, very good. But why not be the first to endorse the sentiment?
Comparable is a myth. We've been a much bigger club than Spurs for 99% of our history. They had a couple of years in the early sixties and little more than that, we have been consistently a big club from the 30's onwards.
Sure, but put it this way. If they'd hired Wenger in the mid-90, can we be sure we'd have enjoyed such sustained dominance?
