And so it begins…….
I saw some allegations a while back and it looks like it’s coming home to roost

https://news.sky.com/story/david-sullivan-steps-down-as-west-ham-joint-chair-after-serious-historic-allegations-13551367

Looks like he’s going legal on it. Extracted from his personal statement :

I have not been provided with any proper explanation as to how these individuals or their claims were independently verified or assessed for credibility prior to publication. I believe that the entire process has been fundamentally unfair and completely lacking in any due impartiality. I will be suing the BBC for libel, along with any other media outlet that repeats any libelous allegations.

I am stepping down to apply my full energy and attention on fighting these false allegations. I have officially engaged my legal team and we are preparing to issue legal proceedings in respect of each and every false complaint that has been made against me. I will be seeking full redress, legally and publicly, on every single front.

You wouldn't just quit like that, you would say "the allegations are false, my legals on it, business as usual"

There were rumours he was already fed up.
He says he's suing for libel - wonder if it'll stay that way after legal advice? He must be confident.

The rumours I’ve seen are pretty bad tbh. IF true he’ll be going away, plus Karen Brady jumping ship doesn’t help his cause either

So, do they have anyone in charge?!

Kretinsky who is a major shareholder and co chairman. He is who the West Ham fans have wanted to run the club and is far more likely to put his hand in his pocket than Sullivan.

West Ham fans are delighted with this news, they've wanted him out for ages...
