    “Nottingham Forest have been slapped with a £750,000 fine by the Football Association for bringing the game into disrepute by complaining about refereeing decisions vs Everton in April

    Nottingham Forest complained about VAR and the referee vs Everton in April 

    Nottingham Forest have been handed a heavy financial penalty by the Football Association following an investigation into their controversial club statement in April

    Forest were furious with the decisions in a crucial match against Everton, believing they were denied three penalties. Everton won 2-0 at Goodison Park in a match on April 21 overseen by VAR Stuart Attwell, who is a supporter of their relegation rivals Luton Town”

    A statement released by the FA on Friday, read: “Nottingham Forest have been fined £750,000 and warned for misconduct in relation to comments posted on social media after their Premier League game against Everton on Sunday 21 April.”

    How far into the black are we on that old PSR thing? Us and Newcastle did the dodgy Anderson-Vlach deal to scrape through that but did we account for another three quarters of a million in fines? Do fines count for PSR? Would be interesting if this is what they use to dock us more points. Pure corruption if that’s the case.

    We’ve shown the refs and those in charge up as absolute twats all the time since we got promoted, from the spending spree(s), hiring an ex ref, dodging relegation despite points deduction, dodgy deals with Newcastle to avoid getting hit by more, yes we’ve made ourselves look ridiculous too, but we’ve riled the suits right up and I wouldn’t put it past them to make the fine just enough to punish us in the league on financial grounds if they could.
