Plans for a West Ham fan protest on Saturday seem to have intensified following a trio of interviews from, you guessed it, Sullivan, Gold and Brady.
The threesome all spoke out ahead of the match this weekend, which happens to fall a day before the ten-year anniversary of Sullivan and Gold’s takeover.
Fittingly, the planned protest will also take place on the day and feature a static gathering just three minutes from London Stadium prior to the security checking barriers.
The board will have undoubtedly hoped that some of their words would have cooled interest in the demonstration, but instead, it looks like they’ve thrown fuel on the fire.
One supporter on Twitter thanked them from the organisers of the protest Hammers United for doing everything they can to get fans to support the protest this week, while another said that they’ve changed their mind and will now be attending and one more urged fellow fans to be there in force after the comments…
I’d just like to place on record, on behalf of everyone at Hammers United, my thanks to @davidgold Karen Brady and David Sullivan for doing everything they can this week to support the protest. Those interviews should really help get the numbers ⚒ pic.twitter.com/zpVXFbuEwm

They really couldn’t have done a better job special thanks to gold for his special contribution “The best thing that we’ve ever done since we’ve been here is taking our football club to the Olympic stadium “

Done the complete opposite.
Gone from not caring to wanting to attend the protest and getting many to join me.

I can 100% say I reckon they have made EVERY West Ham fan more angry and want to protest even more…

I asked fans if this week’s Gold, Sullivan & Brady interviews had dissuaded them from attending tomorrow’s anti-board demo. At time of writing, not one has replied ‘yes’. Plenty have replied similarly to Adam. https://t.co/nz1wgrKN1W

I hope to meet as many likeminded West Ham fans at the protest on Saturday as I can
Good & honest people that represent the core fan base, people that all share a mutual love of West Ham but not of @davidgold @karren_brady & the Goblin
Let’s be there in force & be there as 1
