English Premier League: Arsenal 4-2 Wigan (aka “Goodbye Highbury. Thanks for the memories.”)
Arsenal said goodbye to Highbury, its home for 93 years, on Sunday, 7 May 2006. Everything seemed to fall into place. Wigan made a fight of the match but Arsenal eventually prevailed 4-2 with Thierry Henry scoring a hattrick. After his third goal whcih was scored from a penalty, Thierry Henry kissed the ground goodbye.
Meanwhile, the Scum (i.e. Tottenham Hotspur) suffered an outbreak of food poisoning a few hours before their match against West Ham. West Ham won the match 2-1 and that left the Scum in 5th spot after Arsenal's victory over Wigan secured 4th spot for Arsenal.
All I have to say to the Scum and their fans,
KARMA
"Play, play, play," said Martin Jol then. Now, it's time to pay the price, you Scum-lovers. “Champions League football? You're having a laugh, Tottenham”. Just desserts!
And to all Gooners,
A belated but HAPPY ST. TOTTERINGHAM DAY*
* The day that the Scum are mathematically unable to secure a league position higher than Arsenal.
