Beard Liberation Front

1st February

Spurs 2-2 draw with Manchester City at White Hart Lane on 1st February gained the North London side another valuable point in a lacklustre Premiership season, it also saw Manchester City drop two points as they looked likely to take all three with a 2-0 lead at half time. That gives Spurs North London neighbours Arsenal a potentially season defining six point lead over Manchester City a the top of the table.

The rivalry between Arsenal and Spurs is perpetual but sometimes North London unity comes first. The result on Sunday helps both Spurs and Arsenal.

*Arsenal fan Michael Rosen posted on X after the result ‘The Beard United Will Never Be Defeated’. He has kindly donated the slogan to the Beard Liberation Front.

The decisive Spurs goal was scored by Dominic Solanke who sports a goal assisting beard. Meanwhile Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta’s transition from stubble to beard remains a work in perpetual progress
