hey eds seen that west ham are again in the top 20 rich list just wondering what this actually means. like are we cash rich or is that set in assets etc? thanks.

{Ed002's Note - It means nothing. It relates to an estimate of what the owners would get if the club is sold subject to them paying any debt.}

Ed002 the rich list by Deloittes is actually based on annual revenue not net worth, West ham would qualify due to the TV money, sponsorship and the ticket sales.

{Ed002's Note - That is the football money league which is something different.}

That is where we are ranked 18th, it is the Deloittes Rich List. We had revenue of euro 216.4 mill last year ahead of Everton and Napoli. Barcelona overtook Real Madrid as number 1 by restructuring their business operations. Happy for you to call it whatever but the revenue is where we are 18th richest.

{Ed002's Note - It is not to do with being "rich" - it is simply the revenue for the year. Everton for example are running at a significant loss and nearly 90% of their turnover goes on wages.}

It’s just what Deloittes call it - the one you are referring to is the Forbes list I believe.

{Ed002's Note - It is nothing to do with how }
“Rich” a club is.}
