Supporters’ group Forza Garibaldi say they are cancelling plans for a pre-match display at Nottingham Forest’s next home game out of protest at season card prices.
In a statement, they said: “To our fellow fans, we are aware that statements and social media disaffection may not be enough to make our frustration clear to the club. The intention here is not just to complain but also take action if necessary. Forest say they have “simplified the pricing structure”. They add that theirs remain among the “most affordable” season cards in the Premier League. However, their top-flight status hangs in the balance - not least as a result of a four-point deduction for breaching financial rules, which the club are appealing.
“We have talked to the club before about finding a ‘human factor’ in their decision making and we feel again that such a view has disappointingly been overlooked. This decision risks selling seats to those who can afford it – we only have to look around at some of our fellow Premier League clubs to see the consequences of gentrified football stadiums. We must avoid this becoming the future of the City Ground.
“We will remind the club that it is the current season card holders who constantly stuck by the club in darker times, including when the club requested financial help during the pandemic. Fans are now understandably feeling let down that great loyalty is being dismissed.
