Become a mortal enemy Crystal Palace fights Nottingham Forest on weekends, worrying that fans protest to increase security
8:55am, 22 August 2025Football
August 21 The Guardian reported that Crystal Palace is in consultation with Nottingham Forest and the London Police Department to plan to strengthen security measures in the Premier League between the two teams this Sunday.
It is reported that Crystal Palace fans plan to launch a protest in this game, accusing Nottingham Forest of causing the team to be relegated from the UEFA Cup to the UEFA Association. Since former Crystal Palace shareholder John Tuctor also owns the Lyon Club, which has UEFA Club's financial control agency determined that Crystal Palace violated the multi-club ownership rules, and the Forest eventually replaced its Europa League seat.
Nottingham Forest wrote to UEFA that it stated the suspected violation and sent a legal team to attend the Crystal Palace's appeal hearing at the International Court of Arbitration for Sport, but the court of arbitration last week upheld UEFA's original judgment. Crystal Palace Chairman Steve Parish (pictured above) said bluntly in an interview with Gary Neville's podcast last month: "We were told that the matter has been made public, and Forest played a key role in the suspension decision. The confidentiality of some institutions is false. If no one tries to make a profit from this, this problem will not occur at all. Some people should ask themselves."
Crystal Palace fans responded strongly to the injustice encountered by the club and planned to express their demands in Sunday's game. The game, which is usually listed as a low-risk level by police, is likely to upgrade security due to protest plans. Although the specific plan has not been confirmed, it is rumored that protesters will gather at the stadium in advance and target the visiting team bus, and additional police and security personnel may be needed.
Hundreds of fans marched to Selhurst Park last month to protest, and Crystal Palace fans group Homesdale fanatical that this is a serious injustice to the club and football. With the first home game against controversial opponents in the new season, more fans are expected to join the protests.
If Greek billionaire and forest owner Marinakis appear to watch the game, it is likely to be the target of attack. This shipping tycoon who often goes to London to watch the game is likely to rush to south London to watch the game. According to convention, Marinakis will bring his own security team if he attends, and the Forest Security Department is also evaluating the risk level with Crystal Palace. Despite tensions in the clubs between the two sides, Crystal Palace has made it clear that it welcomes Marinakis into the boardroom.
A spokesperson for the London Police Department told the Guardian: "The police will dispatch police forces to maintain order in the game. The first task is to ensure the safety of fans and the public. We will continue to monitor the development of the situation."
