Nottingham Forest Owner Walks Out After 5-0 Defeat and Discards Ticket in a Bush on the Way Out of Fulham
The owner of Nottingham Forest, Evangelos Marinakis, has made headlines after reportedly throwing his ticket into a bush and leaving the game early following his team’s 5-0 thrashing by Fulham. As the club’s poor run of form continues, pressure is mounting on manager Steve Cooper. This incident comes just days after Marinakis’ Greek side Olympiacos suffered a similar 5-0 defeat in the Europa League. With fans still supporting Cooper, the future for Nottingham Forest remains uncertain amidst the team’s struggles in the Premier League.
Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis reportedly tossed his pass after the team suffered a devastating 5-0 loss to Fulham. The club’s downward spiral continues with only one win in their last eleven games, landing them in 16th place in the Premier League. Fulham’s Marco Silva led the charge with Raul Jimenez and Alex Iwobi scoring brace goals, while Tom Cairney sealed the victory.
Marinakis was seen leaving Craven Cottage before the end of the game, and a fan claimed to have found his discarded pass in a nearby bush. Social media was buzzing with reactions, with some fans making light of the situation and others expressing concerns about the team’s performance.
The pressure is on manager Steve Cooper as the team’s poor showing continues, with the club having spent heavily since their promotion to the Premier League in 2022. Despite the tough times, fans still showed their support for Cooper during the match, although the manager himself expressed embarrassment at the team’s performance.
