David Sullivan is NOT a minority shareholder
He is mate. He owns 38.8% of the shares, others own the rest. He is the biggest single shareholder but whereas he used to own over 50% of the shares, which made him a majority shareholder, he now owns less than half. Means technically he can be outvoted by the rest at board meetings.

Really? But he owns more than the others which to me is majority. A mere technicality I think

There is absolutely nothing in business law which prevents cunts, assholes, tosspots, or stumpy little wannabe Russian generals becoming majority shareholders in companies. ;)

😂 shame. So is it right, because he’s not technically majority shareholder, he can be described as minority shareholder despite owning most shares?

Oh I can call him worse. Was just curious if Hugh southon was right calling him minority shareholder? It’s a word thing. Majority is most, minority is least

Whetstone’s play on words Jay , to try and play down the role the little cunt played in all this .

They may have been trying to throw Moyes and Newman under the bus but he really ain’t far wrong .
Bring back Jonathon !

Going by the your last sentence,if it is the case,Moyes should walk today.

EVERY West Ham fan knows Sullivan's record and what his like doing transfers.You only had to listen to Simon Jordan yesterday.The blokes a manipulating c**t.

We know Moyes is a bit of a ditherer, but there is litterly no excuse at all for not signing anyone,when we know in places,we have no cover, especially in the striker role.

Rice would have probably being saying Au Revoir in the Summer,but this has basically sealed it.

We all know why the tickets for the Europa League went on sale early now?

Well pissed off!
