	great quiz. didn't think to type in hotspur until after a few tries, but eventually got it.

	autigers:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 04:41 GMT	4 points
	Same here, but i think tottenham should count

	Jwillier:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 04:47 GMT	4 points
	I agree. Tottenham is pretty self explanatory, why wouldn't it count?

	bsd987:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 04:51 GMT	1 point
	tottenham should count, as should olympique marseille. got 14, or 15 if you count olympique de marseille.

	GeminiNL:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 07:15 GMT	3 points
	Got 17. HSV should count for Hamburg. Spelling on number 19 got me.

	Great quiz. Got 16 the first time, but somehow forgot AS Roma?!

	LeeC:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 09:51 GMT	2 points
	surprized by the two I missed. No's 13 and 19.

	19/20, can't believe I missed Spurs.

	Freddie:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 10:27 GMT	2 points
	fantastic quiz!

	UEAdam:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 10:31 GMT	4 points
	Excellent quiz and more challenging than I first expected! It might also be interesting to see which clubs have the most overall wealth instead of just revenue from the 2007/08 season to see if it throws up any surprising results. I imagine number 20 on this list would shoot up much higher!

	RobH:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 10:36 GMT	1 point
	Missed Stuttgart and Fenerbahce. 18/20. And we have the dubious honour of being the only club in the top 20 never to have played in the Champions League! Nevermind eh?

	RobH:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 10:38 GMT	2 points
	Scratch that, I see City are there now. As far as I know they've not got into the CL. Last year Spurs were definitely the only club in top 20 to have not got into that particular competition. Forgot to add, great quiz!!

	Tokyo_Sexwhale:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 11:50 GMT	5 points
	I think the Top 20 would be a lot different if you looked at profits and wealth rather than just revenue/sales. Remember: Sales is vanity, profits is sanity!

	got 17 missed out Bayern Schalke and Newcastle.

	tobinw:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 12:43 GMT	3 points
	Wow, can't believe Newcastle's that high up but Everton and Villa aren't on there at all.

	flinty:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 12:58 GMT	1 point
	got 16, can see the newcastle ground out my window and can't believe they are worth that much :)

	GeordieGuitarist:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 13:02 GMT	0 points
	@Tobin Williamson: Despite what other fans may tell you, we are still a massive club with a huge stadium and fanbase. Shows how greedy our chairman is when we have that higher turnover and we make a £10m profit in the transfer window. I suppose half the revenue goes on Michael Owen's wages though!

	great quiz educational for us yankees, I manged to get 12 but it was a struggle and i had to google the munich team to know how to put it in

	RobH:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 14:23 GMT	2 points
	Amazing Citeh has such a high % of guesses. Their reputation precedes them I suppose...

	HalfWelsh:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 15:34 GMT	1 point
	Ah yet another list for Spurs to be behind Arsenal in, it is therefore another great quiz!

	chambers:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 16:14 GMT	6 points
	good quiz missed the turkish one surprised no dutch clubs but then again i know very little about football

	gene:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 16:29 GMT	6 points
	I got 14 out of 20. Not bad for a guy who hasn't followed the game since the days of the New York Cosmos. ;>)

	Statto2:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 18:06 GMT	2 points
	@Josh Turner - recent released figures have shown that your current chairman has ploughed a lot of money into NUFC & its his predecessors that have made big money from the club.@Robh - Spurs & City fans can console themselves with the fact that they played in the European Cup in the days when only current champions took part.

	I feel like eight minutes is too much time for only twenty answers... but regardless, this was a cool quiz. I didn't do nearly as well as I should have- got half- but it was definitely interesting to see who did and didn't make the cut.

	15 out of 20 (for a girl isn't bad!) and of those i missed - i'm annoyed to miss number 11. the others, 13, 15, 18 and 19 you would have to have boy chromosomes to know

	davidr:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 21:13 GMT	1 point
	@kicking222: Oops, yes, eight mins is rather long. The quiz creation system asks for a time-limit right at the start, which can be changed later. My default is eight mins and then I go back and change it once I've entered all the questions and answers and tested it a few times. Looks like I forgot to do that, this time.

	damn, 17/20, spelled it fenerbache

	Catherine_F:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 23:55 GMT	1 point
	Beatrice, I have no boy chromosomes and I got number 15, although not the others you mentioned - swear I haven't heard of Fenerbahçe. I never knew of Internazionale being called anything but Inter Milan and I already got AC Milan and forgot about the other one, silly me.

	i'm surprised i spelled fenerbahce correctly

	Ecliptica:	Feb 19th, 2009 at 03:52 GMT	2 points
	17/20. Not bad for someone who's never watched a game of soccer. . .errr, football. Random guesses/keeping ESPN as a homepage FTW.

	jesus:	Feb 19th, 2009 at 19:49 GMT	16 points
	@Tony. No it should be football considering thats the name of the sport and its a game played with the feet and a ball.

	C_W_Browne:	Feb 19th, 2009 at 23:36 GMT	14 points
	And Football is what the whole world outside America calls it. and yes there is a world outside of america.

	Newcastle United are a massive club with the loyalist and most passionate supporters in England. Sadly we will be the only club in that list of 20 not to have won a trphy in the last 40 years

	Ribhump:	Feb 23rd, 2009 at 12:24 GMT	3 points
	and interestingly, this table is quite different from how it looked a year ago, partly down to the strength of the EURO and weakness of the pound, which if they were what they were then in this table would put quiet a few european teams out and more premiership ones up (including sadly making Man U top)...(just an interesting observation)
