Nottingham Forest are reportedly set to receive a four-point deduction for breaking financial regulations. The Reds were charged with breaching the Premier League ’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules in January. An independent commission heard their case earlier this month and an announcement is expected today. According to The Guardian, Forest have been docked four points. Such a deduction would see Nuno Espirito Santo’s side drop into the relegation zone, one point below Luton Town.
The rules state Premier League clubs are only allowed to make a maximum loss of £105 million across a rolling three-year period, or £35m each season. For promoted teams that is reduced, meaning Forest were restricted to losses of £61m for the last three campaigns - £13m for the two seasons in the Championship prior to promotion, plus £35m last season. Earlier this season, Everton were deducted 10 points for a PSR breach. They appealed that verdict and their penalty was reduced to six points, although they are still facing a second charge. Forest and the Premier League will be able to appeal the outcome of the club’s hearing. Premier League rules state any appeals process should "conclude no later than and if possible some time before 24 May" - five days after the final match day of the current seaso
