Another twist in the multi-club ownership debate as Crystal Palace are given a lifeline! Join the FFTV Discord server for free - https://discord.gg/xG436HXuch Join Wolfie on Forest Fan TV for a breaking update, diving into the latest from a Telegraph article by Sam Wallace. The piece suggests a potential lifeline for Crystal Palace to reclaim their Europa League spot, following their demotion to the Conference League over multi-club ownership issues with Lyon. Wolfie breaks down whether this news holds weight and if the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) could rule in Palace's favour, which would drop Nottingham Forest back to the Conference League. Tune in for the full analysis! The drama unfolds as Forest's European fate teeters on this ruling, with the club having been poised to step up from the Conference League after Palace's initial exclusion. Wolfie explores the implications—could Palace's appeal overturn UEFA's decision, and what does this mean for Nuno Espírito Santo's squad preparations? With the Europa League draw looming, this uncertainty adds pressure, and Wolfie weighs the chances of Forest staying in Europe's second tier or slipping to the less lucrative Conference League. Share your take—jump into the comments and let us know if you think Palace deserve a Europa League return or if Forest should hold firm in their current position.

We were going to be off this week, but UEFA demanded that we get on Zoom and hammer out an emergency podcast after their ruling that Crystal Palace is removed from the Europa League and instead will play Conference League football in 2025-26. We talk about how we got here - including Lyon winning appeal to stay in Ligue 1 (& thus Europe) - Palace's next steps, and how Nottingham Forest factors into all this, then vent our frustrations about UEFA's decision-making process and the double standard in the penalties (or lack there of) imposed on clubs and ownership groups of different sizes. Cheers Oliver Glasner! You didn't deserve this!
Crystal Palace have been demoted to the Conference League, and Nottingham Forest promoted to the Europa League, after UEFA ruled the Eagles had breached their multi-club ownership rules. Forest are also considering reporting Spurs over what they believe is an illegal approach for Morgan Gibbs-White, former Premier League manager gives his take on Jordan Henderson joining Brentford, and Jofra Archer was back amongst the wickets in his first England test in over four years. Plus, hear from boxing promoters Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn about Oleksandr Usyk against Daniel Dubois, and the possibility of Anthony Joshua fighting Tyson Fury; and former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel ahead of the Club World Cup final.

It's time for the way-too-early Conference League 2025-26 preview! Except it really isn't too early - the 1st qualifying rounds start THIS WEEK if you can believe it. But we're starting off with the 5 "big league" clubs who start their journey in the playoff qualifying round (aka the final step before the League Phase): Nottingham Forest, Rayo Vallecano, Mainz, Strasbourg, and of course, the Conference League house band - Fiorentina. We take a look at what each club has to offer on and off the pitch, why we're so excited to watch them, and what order they should be ranked as tournament contenders. Then, we move on to some lesser known participants from all over the continent - and some off of it. We take pitstops in Liechtenstein, Gibraltar, Kosovo, the Faroe Islands, and the Azores, as we introduce (or reintroduce) some of our favorite stories from the upcoming qualifying rounds and debate which minnows could make a Cinderella run at the League Phase! Cheers Marc Schneider!
Newcastle are back again with another Anthony Elanga Bid! Join FFTV Whatsapp Group: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaUO5bODzgTARNhlWd1h Wolfie dives into the breaking news of Newcastle United's third bid for our star winger, Anthony Elanga, with a reported £50m offer, as per recent reports from Chronicle Live. Despite the improved bid, it falls short of Forest's £60-65m valuation, and with Elanga under contract until 2028 and no pressure to sell due to resolved PSR concerns, Forest are standing firm. Wolfie dissects Newcastle's persistent transfer tactics, exploring whether their strategy of incremental bids will sway Evangelos Marinakis or if Elanga, hailed as a “core player” by Nuno Espírito Santo, will stay put for Forest's Conference League campaign. In other exciting news, Nottingham Forest have been linked with a potential move for Brighton's Evan Ferguson, whose transfer fee has reportedly been slashed, according to transfer rumours circulating online. The young striker's reduced price tag could make him an attractive option for Nuno's squad as Forest look to bolster their attacking options for the Premier League and European competitions. Wolfie breaks down whether Ferguson fits Forest's plans, how his goal-scoring prowess could complement the squad, and if a deal is realistic given the club's financial strategy post-PSR compliance. Could Ferguson be the key to unlocking Forest's attacking potential, or is this just another transfer rumour? Let us know in the comments what you think about today's news—should Forest hold firm on Elanga's valuation or cash in? Is Evan Ferguson the striker we need?

Do Forest have more hope of the Europa League now? Join FFTV Whatsapp Group: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaUO5bODzgTARNhlWd1h Welcome to Forest Fan TV with your host Wolfie, bringing you the latest Nottingham Forest news and updates! In today's video, we dive into the dramatic saga surrounding Crystal Palace, Lyon, and UEFA's multi-club ownership rules, which could have huge implications for Forest's European ambitions. With Lyon's recent relegation to Ligue 2 and John Textor's ownership ties to both clubs, the Europa League qualification picture is murky. Wolfie breaks down the key details from Mike Keegan's insightful article in the Daily Mail, explaining how UEFA's delayed decision on Crystal Palace's eligibility might open the door for Forest to secure a coveted Europa League spot. Wolfie dissects the complexities of UEFA's Article 5 regulations, which prohibit individuals from controlling multiple clubs in the same competition. With Textor stepping down from Lyon's leadership and selling his 43% stake in Palace, the situation is fluid, but Lyon's appeal against their relegation adds further uncertainty. Keegan's article highlights how Forest, who qualified for the Conference League via their seventh-place Premier League finish, could be upgraded to the Europa League if Palace is excluded. What are your thoughts on today's news? Could Nottingham Forest really be heading to the Europa League, or will Lyon's appeal keep Palace in the race?

The transfer window only opened yesterday and Forest already have 3 deals close! To Buy Wolfie a Coffee Click Here: https://buymeacoffee.com/forestfantv Get the latest Nottingham Forest transfer buzz with Forest Fan TV as Wolfie breaks down the hottest stories surrounding the Reds' summer moves! The big news is that Forest are closing in on a deal for Mallorca's dynamic right-back Pablo Maffeo, with reports from El Chiringuito indicating personal terms are already agreed and a €6m offer on the table for the 27-year-old La Liga star. With Mallorca holding firm due to Maffeo's contract running until 2027, Wolfie will dive into whether this tough-tackling defender could be the key to bolstering Nuno Espírito Santo's backline for the Premier League and Conference League campaigns. With Botafogo's Club World Cup journey now over, all eyes are on centre-back Jair Cunha's potential move to Nottingham Forest. Despite earlier reports from Fabrizio Romano suggesting a “sealed” £30m double deal with teammate Igor Jesus, recent updates from Brazilian outlet UOL indicate Botafogo may slow negotiations, believing Cunha's value has soared after his standout performances, including a clean sheet against PSG. Posts on X hint that the 20-year-old could still join Forest next week once he returns to Brazil, but with other clubs circling, Wolfie will dissect the latest rumours and assess whether this towering, technically gifted defender will complete his City Ground switch. Adding to the transfer excitement, ESPN Brazil reports that Forest have opened talks to sign Porto's versatile Brazilian winger Pepe, a 28-year-old with a €75m release clause, though Porto are open to a deal above €15m (£12m). Tune in as Wolfie breaks down these stories, shares his thoughts on how these signings could shape Forest's season, and invites you to join the chat to discuss all things NFFC! #nffc #botafogo #premierleague Learn more about your ad choices.

Could Forest do another deal with Lyon for their Georgian Striker? For Exclusive Content Join FFTV Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ForestFanTV Forest Fan TV is back with a sizzling transfer update as Nottingham Forest set their sights on a new striker to bolster Nuno Espírito Santo's squad! According to TEAMtalk, the Reds are in the race to sign Lyon's Georgian international striker Georges Mikautadze, who is valued at around €25m following Lyon's relegation. With competition from AS Roma and Eintracht Frankfurt, the 24-year-old Euro 2024 Golden Boot joint-winner, who bagged 11 goals in Ligue 1 last season, could be the firepower Forest need for their Premier League and Conference League campaigns. Join Wolfie as he breaks down this exciting transfer target. Wolfie will explore how his pace, movement, and ability to exploit defences could complement Forest's attacking setup alongside players like Igor Jesus. With Roma and Frankfurt also circling, is this the statement signing Forest need to push for European success? Tune in for Wolfie's verdict and let us know in the comments if you think Mikautadze can shine in the Premier League In other news, there's a potential departure from the City Ground as Portuguese winger Jota Silva is linked with a move to Sporting CP, according to reports from A Bola. The versatile attacker, who can play across the front line, has reportedly caught the eye of the Portuguese champions, raising questions about his future at Forest. Wolfie will dissect what this exit could mean for the squad, especially with new signings like Pablo Maffeo and potential additions like Jair Cunha and Porto's Pepe in the works.

We're in Bilbao this week, and it's got us thinking. How does a football club that refuses to sign non-Basque players manage to qualify for the Champions League, raking in close to €100 million from TV rights, match days, and UEFA money, while Dublin's best bet is a few fivers from the Conference League? The answer is in economics. The Basques were Europe's forgotten industrialists, the only region in Spain to undergo a full-blown Industrial Revolution, powered by local iron ore, steel production, and a shipbuilding boom that made Bilbao Spain's biggest port by 1900. Then they lost it all. Globalisation, China, and the EU opened the floodgates. Unlike post-industrial towns in the UK or Ireland, Bilbao didn't roll over. They moved the port. They built the Guggenheim. They chose ambition. And they proved that even a small, isolated, ancient people, who speak a pre-Ice Age language with no known relatives, can build a modern economy with global reach. What's our excuse? Join the gang! https://plus.acast.com/s/the-david-mcwilliams-podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
