What you have to remember is why West Ham are selling Upton Park and becoming rent boys at the Olympic Stadium.
Under their disastrous Icelandic ownership a few years ago, they lost heavily in bad investments made by said Icelandic board members. When Gold and Sullivan bought the club off them, the debt was reportedly anything between £75 million and £125 million. The only way Gold and Sullivan could raise that amount of money was to sell the family silver, Upton Park.
West Ham now no longer own a ground and are, as I said, the rent boys of east London. And if anyone wants to sue me for using that term, go ahead.
