Baroness Karren Brady has left West Ham United.
The 57-year-old has been at the club for 16 years and was vice-chair.
Her departure comes at a time when fans of the club have been regularly protesting against the board with chants audible again at last night’s draw at Crystal Palace.
The move brings to an end Brady’s business relationship with joint-chair David Sullivan, which stretches back close to 40 years.
Brady, an aide to Lord Sugar on The Apprentice, persuaded Sullivan to buy Birmingham City, where she became managing director in 1993 at the age of 23.
In a statement released by the club, Brady said:
To provide well-rounded coverage and a breadth of insight across various events, we rely on contributions from several staff writers, each bringing their own area of expertise to our publication.
