Nottingham Forest news: ‘Huge’ update on points deduction appeal – source
O’Rourke emphasized the importance of promptly disclosing the verdict to maintain the league’s integrity. Nottingham Forest remains hopeful of reclaiming some of the deducted points.
Currently, Nuno Espirito Santo’s team is just above the relegation zone, with Luton Town, one point behind, also battling to stay in the Premier League.
Forest awaits anxiously to learn the outcome of their appeal, as any point gained would be valuable at this stage.
The club was penalized with a four-point deduction in March for violating the Premier League’s spending regulations.
Additionally, Everton faced an eight-point deduction this season for breaching financial fair play rules but managed to secure their place in the top flight due to their improved performance.
Nottingham Forest remains deeply entrenched in the relegation battle, contrary to Everton’s improved situation. O’Rourke predicts that the struggle for survival will extend until the final moments of the season.
It seems likely that there will be a resolution to their points deduction issue in the next few days, which could alleviate some pressure on the players as they head into the crucial final weeks of the campaign.
