Gunners and Spurs fanatics Piers Morgan and Lord Sugar make £5k bet!
PIERS MORGAN has challenged business guru and avid Spurs fan Lord Sugar to a £5,000 bet on today's North London derby.
The former Daily Mirror editor and Arsenal supporter Morgan tweeted: "Let's make this interesting @Lord_Sugar - £5,000 to @GreatOrmondSt from the loser today?"
Lord Sugar is likely to snap up the bet and may be forced to part with a fraction of his estimated fortune of £770m if Tim Sherwood's men fail to win.

However, with Arsenal having failed to win at White Hart Lane in the Premier League since 2007, in which a certain Emmanuel Adebayor scored twice, Piers will be far from confident.
Morgan has frequently made bets with stars including a £10k bet with Samir Nasri.
The Frenchman was adamant that he would win silverware at Manchester City before Arsenal did - scooping the money after winning the title.
