Nottingham Forest Owner Charged with Misconduct

Evangelos Marinakis, the owner of Nottingham Forest, has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association (FA) following his club's controversial 1-0 defeat to Fulham. The FA alleges that Marinakis exhibited 'improper behaviour' around the City Ground tunnel after the match, which ended Forest's unbeaten start to the Premier League season. The game saw Fulham awarded a penalty after a VAR review, while Nottingham Forest had two penalty claims denied, leading to frustration with officiating standards. Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo echoed these sentiments, criticizing the refereeing decisions and calling for peace regarding officiating discussions. Marinakis has until October 7 to respond to the FA's charge, and this incident adds to the scrutiny of the club's previous grievances with VAR. Nottingham Forest is currently positioned 10th in the Premier League, with their next match against Chelsea approaching.
