Come on you stattos

Guardian today:

"These are tough times for Spurs fans and they're not made easier when you see a load of ex-Spurs players plying their trade with aplomb at other Premiership clubs," moans Dan Dobson. "To make things worse, these players always up their game when playing against Spurs. Am I right in thinking that there are more ex-Spurs players currently playing in the Premiership than from any other Premier League club?"

Much as we hate giving Spurs fans another birch with which to beat themselves, Dan is indeed correct - an incredible 26 former Tottenham players have been on the pitch for other Premier League clubs so far this season, comfortably more than anyone other club in the world. Next up is West Ham, with 20 alumni playing elsewhere, and thirdly come Liverpool with 19. Outside the Premier League, Birmingham put up an impressive show with 17, Leeds have 15, Charlton 12 and, impressively, League Two Bradford have eight."

So how many ex Canaries are there out there? Must be looods, surely?
