Club leadership changes as West Ham prepares for a board update while its interim chief executive keeps daily operations running. David Sullivan resigned with immediate effect on Saturday from his co-chair position and as a director after learning of allegations he says are false. The 77-year-old said he will sue the BBC and any outlet that repeats the claims, while the club said the matter is unrelated to its activities.
