Latest Nottingham Forest news as Reds weigh up appeal after Premier League points deduction for FFP breach
Nottingham Forest risk their four-point sanction for breaching financial rules being increased, if they decide to appeal the penalty handed down to them.
They are weighing up whether to appeal against their penalty. However, doing so would not be without some risk. Premier League rules state an appeal board may “except in the case of a fixed penalty, vary any penalty imposed or order made at first instance”.

Forest’s penalty could, therefore, be reduced. But there is also the possibility it could be increased, albeit this is understood to be unlikely. If and when an appeal is made, a hearing will take place in front of an appeals board. The Premier League say any appeal hearing should “conclude no later than and if possible some time before 24 May” - that is five days after the final round of fixtures for this season.
