Crystal Palace seek increased security for volatile meeting with Nottingham Forest
Crystal Palace are in talks with Nottingham Forest , and the Metropolitan police, over the provision of increased security for Sunday's Premier League game between the teams at Selhurst Park. Palace supporters are understood to be planning a protest at the fixture over Forest's perceived role in getting them demoted to the Uefa Conference League , with Nuno Espírito Santo's side replacing Palace in the Europa League after they were found by Uefa's Club Financial Control Body [CFCB] to have broken multi-club ownership rules due to their former shareholder John Textor's ownership of the French club Lyon, who also qualified for the latter competition. Forest wrote to Uefa with their observations about the alleged breach and sent their legal team to attend Palace's appeal hearing at the court of arbitration for sport, which upheld the CFCB's decision last week. The Palace chairman, Steve Parish, said in an interview with Gary Lineker's Rest is Football podcast last month that Forest had played a key role in the decision to ban them. READ MORE 'We were told that and I think it's been made public,' Parish said. 'There doesn't seem to be a lot of confidentiality that comes out of certain organisations. But we're led to believe that's the issue – if there wasn't somebody that wanted to get in as a consequence, then there wouldn't be a problem. 'People have got to look at themselves. Some people will say it's fine, some people will say it's not. I don't really have control of that. I only have control of the arguments that we put forward to Uefa.' Palace fans have rallied behind Parish's sense of injustice and are planning to make their feelings known at Sunday's game, which would ordinarily be categorised as a low-risk fixture by the Met. While details of the protest have yet to be confirmed, there have been suggestions that protesters plan to arrive early at Selhurst Park and target the visitors' team coach, which may require additional protection from police and stewards. Hundreds of Palace supporters marched to Selhurst Park in protest after the initial decision to ban them from the Europa League last month, which the supporters' group the Holmesdale Fanatics described as 'a terrible injustice for both our club and the game of football as a whole'. More fans are likely to protest before what is Palace's first home game of the season, particularly given the identity of their opponents.

Photograph: Steven Paston/PA Wire Forest's owner, Evangelos Marinakis, is likely to be a target of abuse if the Greek billionaire decides to attend the game. Marinakis goes to most of Forest's games in London and will be free to make his way to south London given his Greek club, Olympiakos, begin their season with a home game against Asteras Tripolis on Saturday evening. Marinakis will have his own security detail with him at Selhurst Park if he does attend, as is standard practice, while Forest's safety and security team are involved in ongoing discussions with their counterparts at Palace to assess the level of risk. Despite the ill-feeling between the clubs, Palace have made it clear that Marinakis will be welcome in the boardroom. A Met spokesperson told the Guardian: 'Officers will be in attendance at the upcoming Crystal Palace-Nottingham Forest game. Our priority is keeping fans and the wider public safe, and we will continue to monitor the situation for developments.' – Guardian

‘He's seen enough' – Ex-Man Utd star walks off set after disastrous League One clash as fans think he'll resign
MAN ALIVE 'He's seen enough' – Ex-Man Utd star walks off set after disastrous League One clash as fans think he'll resign PLYMOUTH ARGYLE manager Tom Cleverley walked off set as technical issues delayed his post-match interview last night. The Pilgrims fell 1-0 to Leyton Orient at Home Park, Cleverley's fourth League One defeat out of four since taking charge. 8 Tom Cleverley waited on set to be interviewed 8 The Plymouth Argyle manager eventually had enough of waiting Credit: X Advertisement 8 Josh Koroma fired Leyton Orient to victory Credit: Shutterstock Editorial Argyle have endured a disastrous summer, with former manager Miron Muslic walking out to join Schalke and several key players leaving. Last night's match was broadcast on the club's internal Argyle TV service. Shortly after the final whistle, Cleverley headed to the studio to perform his post-match interview. Advertisement As the former Manchester United star stood wearing a microphone, media staff tried to fix some technical issues. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL SPLASH THE REDDIES Liverpool approve record Isak transfer as Reds plot £165m double-deal When the presenter, presumably not realising he was on air, answered his phone, an agitated-looking Cleverley looked like he wanted to leave the studio. And after about 90 seconds of standing there waiting, the 36-year-old eventually did just that, removing his microphone and walking off set. Around 30 seconds later the feed cut to black. Advertisement Posting a clip of the exchange, an Argyle fan wrote: "I've just been sent this by a mate. And I'm not going to lie, it completely epitomises everything that's wrong with the club. Unprofessional and amateur. Look at Clevs face, the blokes obviously done. He's seen enough of this s***show, I'm putting money on him walking."

Advertisement Another called it "embarrassing". Tom Cleverley reveals message from Wayne Rooney after former Man Utd star named new Plymouth manager Cleverley has been working with a threadbare squad at Home Park. The Pilgrims lost the likes of Ryan Hardie, Adam Randell, Maksym Talavierov, Nikola Katic. Mustapha Bundu, Jordan Houghton, Rami Al Hajj and Darko Gyabi from their side that nearly survived in the Championship last term. Argyle signed several players early on in the transfer window, but few with League One experience. Cleverley was finally able to bolster his leaky defence by bringing in Alex Mitchell on loan from Charlton on Monday. Advertisement That was Argyle's first acquisition of a player, excluding those previously on trial, since July 4. The club's No9 shirt has still not been filled, despite fan favourite Hardie leaving for Wrexham on June 16. Luca Ashby-Hammond has been filling in for injured first choice Conor Hazard in goal, having scored a comical own goal while on trial with the Greens. The Pilgrims began their season with a 3-1 home defeat by Barnsley and a 2-0 loss at Bolton. There was brief respite in the Carabao Cup, as Argyle beat a heavily rotated QPR side 3-2 at Home Park - but it was normal service resumed on Saturday as they lost 3-2 at Lincoln.

The former Watford boss did not shy away from the dire situation, saying: "Absolutely, I take full responsibility of that. Advertisement "We all know that we're trying to complete our squad from now to the first of September, and in that period of time it's my job to pick as many points up as possible, and we've not. "Of course we should be doing better. We shoulder that responsibility, but today was one of those nights where I have to say we've done everything we can. "We've just fallen short of a team that right now is a better level than us."
