First, the end of an era, the next follows overwhelming amounts of news for Hammers fans - to see such celebrations surround a fanbase ultimately summarises Sullivan’s 16-year tenure at the club, a gloomy bit of nothing but misery and greed optimised the past, and whilst the first step has been taken, the second isn’t too far from surfacing.

As the bells chime, the news has been revealed.

David Sullivan has officially stepped down from West Ham United with immediate effect.

The club have revealed a statement this early afternoon as follows:

"West Ham United can confirm that Joint-Chair David Sullivan has stepped down from his position with immediate effect.

Amongst the chaos that is running around West Ham at the moment, many rumours and alleged discussions have begun for numerous individuals, but in reality, a lot of outgoing news will be delayed due to the World Cup tournament.

As some players within our squad haven’t been selected for their respective nations, this, of course, makes deals easier to complete, meaning West Ham will be able to achieve some outgoings, but the reality of the situation is that the majority of business will take place once the tournament has been concluded.
