Burnley boss Vincent Kompany hopes ‘common sense will prevail’ over Nottingham Forest’s points deduction appeal verdict.
“The only thing is, I haven’t worried about it all season, I haven’t taken it as a factor all season so I’m not going to start now. It’s the same mindset for me. It doesn’t play any part in what we’re doing for the next game.”
A decision was anticipated earlier this week, but the City Ground outfit are still nervously waiting to find out if they will get any points back.
Speaking ahead of their game against Sheffield United this weekend, Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo shared his frustration with the delays.
“Unfortunately we haven’t heard yet. We are expecting, but not yet,” he said.
“It is very difficult. We have been dealing with this situation for a while.
“We all expected the decision to come sooner so we are aware and we know exactly how many points we have. Do we have 30, 29, 28, 27? We need it as fast as possible. These are the things the club is dealing with, not us.
“Thirty (points) would be fantastic because this is what the players have achieved on the pitch. I totally agree, it is a mess, they have had enough time.
“It’s a mess, it’s very difficult not only for us but for all the league, especially the clubs that are involved in points deduction. It’s very difficult to deal with this.”
