Forest owner offers to help fans after train attack

Evangelos Marinakis, the owner of Nottingham Forest, has pledged to pay for any medical expenses incurred by any of the club’s supporters who were injured in a slew of train accidents on Saturday.

After a home game against Manchester United, Forest claimed that many of our London-based supporters were returning home on that train.

Two of the injured and hospitalized patients are still in a critical condition, while the other eleven were hurt and treated.

“Everyone at Nottingham Forest is shocked and deeply depressed by what happened,” Marinakis said.

The supporters’ bravery and selflessness on that train epitomize both our club’s greatest achievements and that of its members.

We will ensure that any supporter of this incident receives any money to enable their recovery so that they can get the best possible medical care.

Alistair Day, who had been a part of Forest’s 2-2 draw with Manchester United, was on the train at the time of the attack.

“Just by the buffet car, I was.” It was strange. At the end of the carriage, all these young children were running up, and I assumed it was a Halloween or student trick, according to Day, who was returning to Hertford.

Any kind of people with blood on them [appeared], and I thought, “Oh, bloody hell, this is not good.”

The club expressed its “deepest concern and heartfelt sympathy” to all those who were injured in the shocking attack on an LNER train bound for London yesterday evening in a statement.

After our game at the City Ground, many of our London-based supporters were returning home on that train, Forest continued. “Our thoughts are very much with everyone involved in such a distressing incident,” Forest continued.

The club is aware of the extraordinary bravery of many people, which undoubtedly prevented even greater harm.
