[Transfer News Live @DeadlineDayLive]

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: David Sullivan has resigned as joint-chair and director of West Ham United.

🗣️ Sullivan: "I have recently become aware that factually incorrect and entirely false, decades-old allegations concerning my personal life are due to be broadcast and published.

The false allegations levelled against me have been sensationalised by the media. After a lifetime spent building businesses in the adult industry in which I have met thousands of women, it is sadly inevitable that a small number of improper conduct claims are being made against me. I categorically deny these claims.

I am a private man, and those who personally and professionally know the real David Sullivan, not the caricature invented by the tabloids, know exactly who I am and what I stand for. I am absolutely not the person the media has decided to paint me as."

Right decision as the replacements would have been nowhere near the level of Nuno. He has had his faults, no doubt about that, but I think he's best equipped to get us back up ⚒️

A message to West Ham United supporters from the Board of Directors

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

Find this so strange as he literally 'interviewed' her on Talksport and gave her a platform to spread the usual lies without any sort of challenge at all 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

“World-class team in a world-class stadium?” Second-tier team in a track-and-field stadium. West Ham United relegated to the Championship at the London Stadium. Fans have every right to be angry. They turned up. But where was the real leadership in the club? Or on the pitch in recent times (Bowen apart)? No urgency in the first half against Leeds. Taty and Bowen gave brief hope. But they couldn’t rise to the equation. Spurs survive.

Many reasons for West Ham’s demise: some iffy recruitment, some below-par coach appointments (Lopetegui, Potter), defensive issues, lack of direction from board, tensions between fans and Sullivan, as well as an unsuitable stadium (fans far from pitch, rental so difficult to generate money). Record losses. And revenue will be hammered by the drop.

Who gets sold? Fernandes and Summerville will be top of many clubs’ shopping list. And the loyal Bowen? Does Nuno stay? Will the fanbase want him to? Does Kretinsky make a move to take over? Would Sullivan sell anyway? So many questions. Who can provide the answers? Who will stand up to be counted?

West Ham need a reset, a rethink, improved recruitment and better leadership - on and off the pitch. Their fans deserve better. #WHULEE #WHU

[Jacob Steinberg @JacobSteinberg]

Nothing more than David Sullivan deserves. Where is Karren Brady’s world class team? Where’s the world class stadium? Utter incompetence has led West Ham to this point

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

West Ham setting new standards of being an utter disgrace

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

@keelyhodgkinson West Ham literally the only reason why that stadium still exists. Also the club has "Overriding Priority" during the football season. UK Athletics has priority during a specific summer window.

Thank you Jose Sa 🙏🏻

[Wolves @Wolves]

A point on the road.

🐺⏱️

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

@uptonhammer Yeah will definitely keep an eye out for the next one ⚒️

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

Superb evening ⚒️

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

West Ham are showing some fight. That was a superb 1st half followed by resilience in the 2nd. There might be some hope

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

Dino's was near-perfect first half. Decent performance and far more direct on the counter

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

@WestHamSocial Agreed. Was happy to give Nuno Jan before this game but the manner of that defeat is inexcusable. The whole team look like they've given up

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

By this viewing, it wasn't the worst thing leaving John Victor at the airport

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

I don't see anything tactically wrong with just playing the same three in midfield from United, why does it need to change that drastically?. Stinks of Nuno overthinking again #whufc

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

RIP ⚒️♥️

[West Ham United @WestHam]

We unveiled the Billy Bonds Stand six years ago today 🥹🏟️

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

These players deserve relegation, simple as that

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

Two weeks to work on a gameplan and that is what you come up with? It's beyond dire

[Matt Bourne @mattbourne93]

'project' 😂😂

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨⚒️ Nuno Espirito Santo, new West Ham manager with immediate effect as contract has been approved.

Portuguese manager replaces Graham Potter with first training session later today.

Nuno says yes to #WHUFC project.
