Piers Morgan shares humiliating throwback picture as Arsenal super-fan shows extent of his ‘one day only’ Spurs support
ARSENAL super-fan Piers Morgan has shared an old picture of him wearing a Tottenham shirt to show the extent of his “one day only” Spurs support.
The talk show host has declared he wants the Gunners’ biggest rivals to nick a result from Manchester City to help the club win their first Premier League title since the 2003-04 Invincibles 20 years ago.
Tottenham take on Man City in North London on Tuesday night before this weekend’s final round of fixtures.
The Cityzens enter the contest in second position, a single point behind Mikel Arteta’s side and with an inferior goal difference (+61 vs +58).
If they beat Tottenham on Tuesday and then West Ham on the final day of the season at the Etihad, a sixth title in seven years – and fourth in a row – is theirs.
But a loss in the capital and Arsenal will simply need to beat Everton to lift the title, with a draw potentially leaving their fate down to goal difference.
This is why Arsenal star Kai Havertz revealed he will “be the biggest fan of Tottenham on Tuesday.”
And now die-hard Gunners fan Piers has echoed the German forward’s sentiment ahead of the clash.
To show just how devoted he is to backing Spurs, the Sun columnist shared an old picture of him being forced to wear the white jersey on Sky Sports after losing a bet to Peter Crouch.
The 59-year-old tweeted: “UPDATE: Tomorrow, for one day only, I’m a Spurs fan – however painful that may be.”

And Arsenal fans are in full support of Piers as one said: “We are behind you.”
Another added: “We all watching Spurs tomorrow, I give them my 100 per cent support to win the match.”
A third then put, “COYG” followed by a picture of Martin Odegaard, Havertz and Bukayo Saka all in Spurs shirts.
Piers even added: “If [the match] means me putting on the dreaded white shirt and chanting ‘Ossie’s Dream’ then so be it.”
