FA Hits Forest Manager Nuno and Defender Williams with Fines.

Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo and defender Neco Williams have been fined by the Football Association for misconduct related to last season's loss to Everton.

Nuno Espirito Santo has been fined £40,000 and given a one-game touchline ban, suspended until May 31, 2026. Defender Neco Williams has been fined £24,000.

The fines follow their criticism of officials after Nottingham Forest's 2-0 Premier League loss to Everton at Goodison Park in April, where Forest had three penalty decisions go against them. 

Nuno called the officials' performance "bad," and Williams expressed frustration to Sky Sports, questioning if the decisions were due to Forest being a lower-table team.

Both Nuno and Williams have been cautioned about their future conduct.
