Banner depicted him holding gun to Gibbs-White’s head
Palace have already been handed £50,000 fine from FA
The Nottingham Forest owner, Evangelos Marinakis, is suing Crystal Palace for defamation after supporters of the south London club displayed a banner depicting him holding a gun to the head of the England midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White.
Almost 12 months since the banner appeared midway through the first half of Palace’s 1-1 draw with Forest at Selhurst Park, lawyers for Marinakis lodged the claim for defamation against CPFC Ltd and “persons unknown” at the high court on Monday.
