The North London Derby hardly ever fails to disappoint, both on and off the pitch. Tottenham Hotspur went up 1-0 today on Arsenal, but Kieran Gibbs leveled in the 77′ and Spurs-Gunners ended in a draw at The Emirates today. Also, leveled were these stadium toilets.
Just senseless and pointless destruction here- good times!
This seems to be what Spurs fans have done to Emirates Stadium toilet. Claim it's 'revenge' for WHL damage #AFCvTHFC pic.twitter.com/vYp9JvrvBD

Supposedly, this was “revenge” inflicted by Spurs supporters, in response to Gunners supporters trashing White Hart Lane in the previous match-up. Supposedly, it’s retaliation for something that occurred at the League Cup clash, however, we’re still not sure how this solves anything.
It does remind us of an interesting news item from June however. Via Sky Sports, remember when Gunners star Jack Wilshere, who has come through the youth ranks at Arsenal, started a chant mocking local rivals Tottenham, asking the crowd:
“I have one question, and one question only: what do we think of Tottenham?”… before adding: “And what do we think of ****?”, then joining in as the crowd sang back: “We hate Tottenham and we hate Tottenham… we are the Tottenham haters.”
