Well Spider-Man recently explained his fandom and I feel slightly better that he was just looking out for one of his brothers (the other two are Gunners) and that he thinks it's the worst decision of his life.

I'm a big believer in sticking with the team you initially land on (fuck the fair weather fans / glory hunters who jump been Man City, Chelsea, and Man United!).

But I feel like a special dispensation should be given to spuds fans who chose their club during childhood. That's such a huge, catastrophically bad decision. They chose objectively the wrong North London club. But they were just foolish kids, ya know? They should be given a release path just once. If they are wise they will ruin away from those lilywhite clowns for good.

yeah alright that's a decent reason to be a spurs fan.

Haven't watched the video yet. But I wonder if Tom's rl partner (Zendaya, who is an Arsenal fan) is also helping him see the error of his football supporting ways.

It's especially funny because the host Angela Hartnett (amazing chef btw) is literally a season ticket holder at The Emirates.
