Report: Hammers United committee’s long-term goal is to see West Ham United being owned by its fans

West Ham United have been owned by chairmen David Gold and David Sullivan for 10 years, and it appears the majority of the fans have had enough of them.

One of the club’s supporters groups Hammers United organised a protest where more than 8,000 supporters marched to the London Stadium last month, and this came after two other protests held this year.

The Hammers United committee has a long-term goal in mind – West Ham being owned by its fans – and planning remains underway, according to The Athletic’s Roshane Thomas.

The supporters’ group have been researching extensively on fan ownership and have been in contact with a handful of fan groups across Europe.
