NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM (OCTOBER 18, 2025) (REUTERS – Access all) 4. VARIOUS (TWO) STILLS OF NOTTINGHAM FOREST OWNER, EVANGELOS MARINAKIS, WATCHING ON FROM THE STANDS STORY: Nottingham Forest sacked manager Ange Postecoglou 20 minutes after they suffered a 3-0 defeat by Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday (October 18) which left the club languishing in 17th place and on the brink of slipping into the relegation zone. Australian Postecoglou became the first Forest manager to fail to win any of his first eight games in charge of the Midlands side and the writing was on the wall at 2-0 when club owner Evangelos Marinakis left his seat in the stands. A resounding chorus of boos met the final whistle and Postecoglou cut a lone figure near the centre circle as he applauded the handful of Forest fans who had stayed behind. Chelsea's Pedro Neto got a goal and an assist within three minutes at The City Ground and though the visitors were reduced to 10 men late on when Malo Gusto was sent off, they kept a clean sheet as the win lifted Enzo Maresca's side to fourth. "I feel very sorry for him," the Chelsea head coach told reporters after the match. "Unfortunately it's a business where you need to win games. Otherwise, it's the same consequence for all of us," added Maresca. (Production: Peter Cziborra, Chris Radburn, Conal Quinn)
