Forest\u2019s three-year financial period included two Championship seasons, meaning they were only allowed to lose \u00a361 million in the three years up to June 30, 2023. The figures concerning how much Forest breached PSR in this three year financial period has not been made public yet.<\/p>\n<h3>Nottingham Forest To Focus on Johnson Sale<\/h3>\n<p>The Reds\u2019 defence will focus on the \u00a347.5 million sale of Brennan Johson on September 1, 2023. Before the end of the financial year in June 2023, Forest received \u00a330 million and \u00a335 million bids from Brentford. However, they rejected these bids as they were waiting for a bigger offer to maximise profit from the sale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/02\/13\/why-do-nottingham-forest-keep-losing-3-2\/\" target=\"_self\">Why do Nottingham Forest Keep Losing 3-2?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nick de Marco KC will appear in front of a three-person independent commission and will likely use the sale of Johnson as the main defence.<\/p>\n<p>The case has to be heard and concluded by April 15, which allows time for the club to appeal.<\/p>\n<h3>Everton Precedent Set<\/h3>\n<p>Everton\u2019s ten-point deduction was reduced to six on Monday, February 26, moving the Merseyside club a point clear of Forest in the table.
