Good read about West Ham here and whilst we aren't allowed to feel sorry for them (obviously!), there but for the grace of God. . .



Wonderful

Decent read this, all is not well for West Ham.



Hilarious

Their fans are utterly fucked. I just cant feel sorry for them after how they behaved after "winning" the Olympic site we never really wanted.

Their accounts are out this morning and don’t exactly make impressive reading.

-Wages are 71.2% of turnover
-They have renewed a £39m short term loan which they are using for cash flow
-The accounts describe premier league survival as a financial necessity.

They are absolutely screwed if they go down

It gets to the point where you've got to wonder if their owners are doing it on purpose

that bit about the owners paying themselves interest sounds like they are bleeding the club. Loan money to the club, take a salary, and repay the loan plus interest.

Isn’t that what they did to Birmingham? Brum fans said this would happen

Yeah that’s what it sounds like. I was speaking to a West Ham fan over the weekend and he didn’t mind. His attitude was with so much money in football what was wrong with them making a bit of money for themselves. It’s the rest of their ownership he is annoyed with. The stadium, the poor signings, the managers etc.

They actually put this in their accounts statement :ROFLMAO:

“We have also now obtained the claret pitch surround which we had been striving to install since we moved into the stadium. This has really improved the look and feel of the stadium.”
