Nottingham Forest have been docked four points for breaching Premier League profit and sustainability rules. It means that Forest has now dropped into the relegation zone, and is a point behind Luton Town in sixteenth.

The Midlands club have released a statement confirming that they are disappointed with the process from the Premier League.

"We were extremely dismayed by the tone and content of the Premier League’s submissions before the commission … We believe that the high levels of cooperation the club has shown during this process, and which are confirmed and recorded in the commission’s decision, were not reciprocated by the Premier League.”

Nottingham Forest is not the first team this season to have been deducted points for breaking profit and sustainability rules. Everton had initially been deduced ten points back in November 2023, however that was reduced to six after an appeal.

Forest now has six days to appeal the decision with a deadline of the  24th of May, five days after the end of the Premier League season for any PSR appeals to be heard.
