West Ham United's Fan Advisory Board recently published a letter of no confidence in the club's board. Fan group Hammers United have also urged supporters to boycott next month's home game against Brentford in protest at David Sullivan and the board's wider running of the club. Sports journalist George Simms recently wrote a very well received article in The Observer blaming Sullivan for the apathy and anger felt by many West Ham fans over the club's miserable plight. And in this podcast We Are West Ham host Will Pugh speaks to Simms and digs deeper on the driving force behind the piece, his views on the fan protests before asking whether the 76-year-old billionaire will ever leave the club. #westham #davidsullivan #premierleague Get early access and ad-free listening: patreon.com/WeAreWestHamPodcast 🎥 Follow us on TikTok: / wearewestham_pod 📱 Follow us on Twitter: / weare_westham 📸 Follow us on Instagram: / wearewesthampod 🎬 Subscribe on YouTube: / @wearewesthampodcast 📧 Email us: wearewesthampod@gmail.com 🎧 Follow us on Podfolllow: https://podfollow.com/we-are-west-ham-podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

well, this win was a good one, but it wasn't phenomenal. we played a weak game of football against an incredibly physical Luton town. it was embarrassing how manhandled the irons were. they're lucky to have gotten away with it. they felt comfy and not the same as the man down Chelsea mentality.

Boys, last week you were moaning about us brining in Lingard, saying we didn't need another midfielder, now you are moaning about not bringing in midfielders...cognitive dissonance?

Huge talent so skilful fast & hungry! Exactly what we needed & had. It is sad & i think he would of been crucial on the left. WBA fans & pundits are rightly estatic bc young hungry English & is a game changer that takes on players with ridiculous ease. Yes we have a lot of wingers but most inverted. Grady was our only real natural left winger yes Yarmo & Snod Bowen can but better on RW where Diagana can do both but on the left is devastating. I'd of rather kept him got a a couple frees & loans. We missed out on some solid frees like Robin Knoche a tidy passing good in air CB & DM. Then €8m for Philipp Max 26 assists in 3 Bundesliga seasons with not the best team & 8 goals 6 assists 19/20. Those two & Grady would of made me thrilled! Don't need to spend big just smart, rant over. Good shows as always & happy everyone is healthy if not happy ⚒
