Forest owner Marinakis sues Palace over gun banner

Evangelos Marinakis, the owner of Nottingham Forest, is taking legal action against Crystal Palace. The lawsuit stems from a banner displayed by Crystal Palace fans that showed Marinakis holding a gun to the head of Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White. Marinakis is seeking damages over the incident, which he considers to be defamatory and threatening. The banner was unfurled during a match between the two teams, prompting Marinakis to pursue the matter in court.
