Spuds is one of the nicer names that Arsenal fans call them.

It was supposed to be on ESPN2. I hope they pick up another game.

Liverpool/Sunderland is on FSC, Newcastle/Arsenal is at another time and I believe on FSC also

Probably the next most attractive game is Fulham/Aston Villa- how are things in West London?

West London has been pretty calm.

Yes, it does.
I've never been, but just looking at maps, satellite photos, etc. London is a big freaking place. Tottenham, technically, isn't even London, it's its own municipality way up north.

West London is miles from Tottenham. Arsenal are the next closest club, who'd have the most to worry about.

I took classes way back in the day with a lady who taught in Tottenham, and it was rough in the early 1990s.

Almost all of the London metro area technically isn't London. The city of London is very small, only about 10,000 people.

What we consider London is hundreds of municipalities.

The boroughs just around the City of London are still considered London. But way north, like Tottenham, Watford to the NW, I think they're thought of a bit differently. At least, that's what I've gleaned in my years of watching, while Chelsea, Hammersmith & Fulham, West Ham, East Ham, and others closer in are considered "London" and not "Greater London..."

It's kind of like the Faubourgs in New Orleans.

Metairie = Tottenham

Marigny = West Ham

is that the analogy?

Sooooooooooort of, yeah.
But even in Marigny, you're still in New Orleans, the same when you leave it for lower 9th Ward.
Tottenham would be more Kenner, brah, in my estimation.
