@KiwiPie sorry i meant to say this century.
I don't count LBF (League Before Fulham)
Is that 46 this century? How many in total?
@KiwiPie OK I have updated my spreadsheet to include the seasons prior to 2000
There are now 51 teams that have featured in the EPL since its inception in 1992.
The five additions are
Barnsley (1 season)
Blackpool (1)
Bradford (2)
Sheffield Wednesday (8)
Swindon (1)Here they all are with my arbitrary classification into bands

He has a pretty impressive record, will be interesting to see how he does. Wonder if he can do anything to keep Kane on board.
@Cyclops Are Spurs better off cashing in Kane for the rebuild project? FWIW that's Micah Richards opinion. I can see the logic.
Surely Kane has to go. What's in it for him staying at Spurs? Surely the best he could hope for is a Cup run? Kane should go somewhere he can win trophies.

As a supporter I couldn't begrudge him wanting to leave to chase pots. But I'd prefer to send him to Real Madrid than for him to stay in the UK

He has a job to repair the morale and culture after the end of the Conte era. We have some good players who underachieved this year, so he needs to get them playing better. But Levy will need to give him some pieces, we need at least one CB and some FBs because last year we couldn't stop anyone

@canefan The only place he could go for trophies in England is Citeh and they already have their unstoppable goal-scoring cyborg. He goes to Man U and he gets a League or FA Cup each season - hardly a guarantee of "trophies". He couldn't possibly go to Arsenal and 'Pool don't play with a striker.
His only option has to be overseas - BM or RM surely?

That's my feeling. RM love buying our best players

I think "Big Ange" will want to play a high-paced pressing game with Spurs as opposed to their largely counter-attacking style of recent years. Not really sure Kane fits in with that system - he always seems to have had the freedom to do what he wants at Spurs rather than fitting into the system. Ange may see it as good business to take the money now rather than have the problem of losing him next summer.

Pochettino played that sort of system and Kane thrived. Much will hinge on whether Harry wants to go and if Ange sees him as someone to build around.

Blighted a bit by being a very negative game with violence (against West Ham supporters) before the game and appalling behaviour from some West Ham fans inside the ground. The later will almost certainly have repercussions from UEFA against the club.
A minority of 'fans' ruin way too many football occasions.
Well done to the players and coaching staff. Didn't think they would do it TBH and at half time it looked nailed on that they would lose.

I'm loving some Spurs fans online unhappy about Ange getting the job, as he's not a big enough manager to get Spurs to win things
As if winning things is a Spurs characteristic they need to get back to.

@mariner4life I remember there being similar criticisms when Ange got hired at Celtic.

It's crazy. Like Jose and Antonio won anything for us. Ange sounds like he shares some similar philosophies to Pochettino. And I expect him to be a straight up hard working antipodean who can hopefully bring the squad together. I'm keen to see him do well

I will make my annual football post to lament the relegation of Hartlepool United from League Two to the National League.

boo.. doesnt seem right to upvote that! ,Have nothing against Hartlepool, sometimes I would like a downvote button lol
In Bournemouth news, Palace about to announce Lerma signing.. leaves a big gap in the middle for us, so sure to be shopping over summer. Only real surprise for me was no extension on Vina who has gone back to Roma, who showed some attacking skill from the back

Fitting to tie in with the retirement of Jeff Stelling.
