    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Neville had been critical of Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis after he stormed onto the pitch at the end of the 2-2 draw with Leicester a fortnight ago, claiming it was "scandalous" and suggesting manager Nuno Espirito Santo should "negotiate his exit" immediately. Current rules dictate that it is within the club's rights to decide who enters their property but the report states there could be a change.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Sky Sports' volume of live Premier League matches will go up next year, with the broadcaster set to televise 215 games as the lead domestic broadcaster. That deal is vital to the Premier League's financial model.
