Nottingham Forest have had four points deducted for breaching the Premier League’s financial rules.
The sanction drops Forest into the Premier League’s relegation zone, leaving them 18th with nine games to play.
The Premier League said Forest admitted breaching profitability and sustainability rules (PSR) by Stg 34.5million above their permitted threshold of Stg 61million.
Clubs are usually allowed maximum losses of Stg 105m over a three-year assessment period but this is reduced by PS22m per season for any seasons within the period spent in the Championship.
