London, Nov 5: Crystal Palace was charged by the English football federation Wednesday over a provocative fan banner targeting Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis. The banner, making lurid unproven allegations about Marinakis’s business career, was displayed at the Palace-Forest game in the Premier League on August 24.
Palace fans have blamed Marinakis for fuelling a UEFA investigation into their club’s ownership structure that saw the 2025 FA Cup winner demoted to the third-tier Europa Conference League this season and Forest elevated into the second-tier Europa League. Palace has been given until Tuesday to respond. (AP)
