David Sullivan attends West Ham match after stepping down as co-chair

West Ham co-owner David Sullivan attended the Carabao Cup tie against Portsmouth, despite recommendations for him to stay away. Sullivan, who resigned as co-chair in June amid allegations of predatory behavior, remains the largest shareholder in West Ham. His attendance at the match is the first since the allegations surfaced, which West Ham faced alongside relegation to the Championship last season. The club had advised Sullivan to avoid home fixtures to manage safety and operational measures.
