Arsenal fans destroyed for ’embarrassing’ Tottenham chant at North London derby
It has been labelled “cringey” and “embarrassing”.
Rival fans have ripped into Arsenal supporters for their ’embarrassing’ chant ahead of the North London derby.
The points were shared during a fiery 2-2 draw at the Emirates on Sunday in Ange Postecoglou’s first ever game against the Gunners.
Bukayo Saka’s shot, which took a big deflection off Cristian Romero, opened the scoring for Mikel Arteta’s side, before Son Heung-min got Spurs level with a well-taken finish.
Saka then converted his spot-kick shortly after the restart and mimicked James Maddison’s ‘darts’ celebration.
However, Maddison got his revenge less than a minute later, sliding in Son for his second of the afternoon after Jorginho was caught in possession.
As expected, there was plenty of back and forth between supporters, and a video of Arsenal fans blurting out a rendition of ‘sit down, if you hate Tottenham’ has since emerged on social media. You can watch the footage below.
Rival fans were quick to criticise the chant, labelling it “embarrassing” and cringey”. While others likened it to primary school behaviour.
Replying to the video on Twitter, one user wrote: “What school is this?”
“The Emirates is just a magician and triangle sandwiches away from being a kids birthday party,” another joked.
“Thought they were all going to hold a parachute together,” a third added.
A fourth exclaimed: “It’s just so forced all the time,” while another questioned: “Was this before or after arts and crafts?”
Song time at the nursery”, one more chimed in.
“I was doing that when I was like 5 embarrassing club,” another fan wrote.
The draw means both Arsenal and Tottenham are level on 14 points in the Premier League table, four points adrift of first-placed Manchester City, with Liverpool and Brighton making up the gap in between.

Tottenham’s forgotten £32m man hopes to leave the club next week
Sergio Reguilon is hoping to leave Tottenham in the next week and will be keeping an eye on the market in Turkey according to journalist Ben Jacobs.
Spurs were able to move on a number of their fringe players this summer with the likes of Oliver Skipp, Emerson Royal, and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg all leaving the club.
Unfortunately for Reguilon, who hasn’t played for the club since April 2022 a move away has yet to materialise.
Reguilon hoping to leave Spurs in the next week
The 27-year-old, who has one year left on his contract arrived from Real Madrid in 2020 and has made 67 appearances for the club.
The Spain international spent last season on loan at Manchester United and Brentford, whilst he’s also had a loan spell with Atletico Madrid.
Turkey remains the only realistic option for the Spaniard with their window open until September 13th and Jacobs has reported Reguilon will be looking at the Turkish market and hoping a move materialises.
“I think he’ll be quite picky with his next move, but Reguilon was ready to go to Lille on loan,” he told sky sport
“It’s just the fact that Tottenham were very tough on their terms, and were pushing for that loan to have either an obligation or, at worst, a suitable buy option.
“That was too high for Lille to agree with, and therefore he ended up going nowhere. So like many, many players now looking for last minute summer moves, Reguilon will be looking at the Turkish market and hoping that something materialises.
