West Ham United chairman David Sullivan is ready to face the fan protests at the London Stadium on Saturday by still attending their Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.
Demonstrations are planned against Sullivan and his vice-chair Karren Brady with those behind the event hoping they will prove the biggest ever staged by the club's support.
Organisers Hammers United have named it 'No More BS’ in the hope of unseating Brady and Sullivan and plan on repeating the protests before every home match.
It has been estimated at least 3,000 are expected to be in attendance before playing Palace, with it hoped that numbers could eventually rise to 20,000 with momentum.
It is not known whether Brady is likewise set to brave Saturday's 3pm kick-off, but sources have told Daily Mail Sport that Sullivan is prepared to defy the protests.
It is understood the 76-year-old believes he should not be forced to stay away from watching his own club while he accepts the fans’ right to express their opinions.

Fans have held multiple protests against their owners despite a decade of relative success
The London Stadium is key to the reason why protests have been planned, with supporters unhappy with the home they took on after leaving their beloved Upton Park, feeling promises were made and not followed up on.
