It's The Hope That Kills You

I spent the first 30 games of Arsenal's season waiting for the bubble to burst but it never so with 8 games to go thoughts began to creep in that perhaps, maybe, possibly, we may just do it and grab our first Premier League Title since 2004 and then the wheel's came off in spectacular fashion.
Obviously it feels churlish to moan about finishing second in the league and if that had been offered at the start of the season we wouldn't have just snapped off someone hand for it but taken the whole arm but to be so close and then see it fall away is pretty galling.
Our loss to Nottingham Forest means that Manchester City have now claimed their fifth Title in six years so congratulations to the men at the Etihad Stadium who other clubs will be looking towards and pondering on how amazing it is what spending £1.4 billion on players in the last decade will get you.
