Nuno fires shot at FA with ‘don’t acknowledge’ Nottingham Forest claim

The scheduling of Nottingham Forest’s FA Cup quarter-final clash with Brighton and Hove Albion has not gone down well with head coach Nuno Espirito Santo.

Tonight’s tie at the Amex Stadium (5.15pm kick-off) is a huge game for the Reds. They are one win away from a trip to Wembley and their first semi-final appearance in the competition since 1991.

But this weekend’s cup matches take place just a few days after many players will have linked back up with their clubs from being on international duty. Forest had 14 members of the first-team squad away with their countries over the past fortnight, while they also have an important Premier League clash at home to Manchester United to come on Tuesday evening (8pm kick-off).
Asked if the Football Association had done enough to protect the world’s oldest cup competition, Nuno said: “I don’t understand the reasons behind the decisions of us playing. Not only us, but look at Fulham and Crystal Palace playing at 12.15 on Saturday, so an even shorter period of time and it’s very difficult.
