Sullivan dispels Blues sale fears
Birmingham co-owner David Sullivan
Sullivan finds the travelling to the West Midlands tough
Birmingham co-owner David Sullivan has moved to dispel fears he could sell his stake in the club.

Sullivan has hinted that he would like to invest in a club nearer to his Essex home as he finds the travelling very hard to take.

He said: "It's the same thing I've been saying for the past 10 years, everyone knows I find the travelling a bind.

"But nobody should panic as I could be at Birmingham for another five years or even until the day I die."

Sullivan is a minor shareholder at Tottenham and held almost a third of shares at West Ham until pulling out to buy Birmingham 12 years ago.

He has been linked with a return to either club and recently admitted in the Daily Mail: "I'd like to have one more challenge at another club nearer to London.

"It's possible I might try to do a deal with Tottenham or West Ham next season if either club becomes available.

"At the moment, I am totally committed to Birmingham but I just wish it was down the road."
