Cardiff born David Sullivan owned the Daily Sport and the Sunday Sport between 1986 and 2007. Essex based and a father of two, Sullivan is a leading figure in the adult entertainment industry, a commercial property magnate and became the largest single shareholder in West Ham United in 2013. Of his 1982 conviction for living off immoral earnings, he commented: “I’ve made a lot of people happy. If I was an arms manufacturer or a cigarette manufacturer and my products killed millions of my clients, I’d have a bit of doubt about the whole thing. I was a freedom fighter. I believe in the right of adults to make their own decisions”.

The usual double-talk, and not particularly inventive either.

He’s a great friend of Jeff Randall

What’s occurring?

I once met him; in the Royal Enclosure; he made it painfully obvious that he didn’t care for me

Haak, haak the Laak in Caadiff Arms Paak…….as we Caadiff boys ‘ says ‘……..

But I fancy that he – like Stacey – is from Barry

I wish people would not use the phrase ‘adult entertainment’. Speak the truth about what this business is.

Peter Wayde June 17, 2015 At 5:23 pm

Do you really mean to tell me that the likes of Sullivan are members of the Royal Enclosure?
I gave up going years ago. So full of ghastly, vulgar people sponsored either by other ghastly, vulgar people or by those who should have known better, but who wanted to ingratiate their way into the wallets of these vile people.

Julie A Randall June 17, 2015 At 6:55 pm

A vulgarian of the first order!

Martin Ellis Jones June 17, 2015 At 7:16 pm

Peter, should you ever consider disapproving of anyone; just remember that not everyone has had your advantages

This line is borrowed from the Great Gatsby, F Scott Fitzgerald

Speak your truth clearly; and listen to others, they too have their story
Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexation to the spirit
If you compare yourself with other, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will greater and lesser persons than yourself

These lines clipped from Desiderata

  Thank you Martin….wasn’t Gatsby a gangster? If so, I am reluctant to take advice from him….
  I don’s think Jackthelad or Mrs M have much to tell me!

He’s a very clever, astute and successful businessman whom we should all admire for his incredibly charitable nature.

  Oh, give us a break….you must be soft in the bloody head if you believe that
