The West Ham United Fan Advisory Board (FAB) has called for chairman David Sullivan to not attend the club’s home matches. The group says his presence could become a “distraction” and raise security concerns. The call is presented as a way to limit potential disruption and keep matchdays focused on supporters and on-field activity.
Across the reports, the fan group’s message is consistent: it argues that Sullivan attending could affect the atmosphere around games and create additional risks for stadium operations. The coverage does not cite any specific incident, but frames the request as preventative, based on the possibility of crowd attention and related security considerations.
The reports reference the FAB directly and describe the reasoning behind the request in similar terms, emphasizing both distraction to matchday proceedings and the potential for security complications. The articles do not include a response from Sullivan or the club to the demand.
