"Lads, it's Tottenham"

With an opening in Liverpool's recent domestic struggles to steal the last Champions League spot Spurs went to dead last West Brom today and lost to a Jake Livermore stoppage time goal because...They are Tottenham. The "Baggies" continue trying, to the vexation of Jurgen Klopp and now probably Mauricio Pochettino as well. They are still underdogs to return to the top flight next season but now they are off the bottom and in 19th place, three points from safety with one to play, and they are not Tottenham.

Fifteenth West Ham went to mutant Lester and won 2-0. The "Hammerheads," did they clinch? I'm too disinterested to do the math. Probably not but close.

Bournemouth I think clinched by beating Swansea in wherever the hell Bournemouth is.

Child Porn got to 41 points, ensuring survival I think, by winning at now relegated Stoke.

And Harry the Elk Hornet also got to the holy grail of 41 by winning on Vicarage Road against confirmed survivors Newcastle.

God must love the middle class, he made so many of them.
