Latest Nottingham Forest news as Steve Cooper's Reds prepare for return of Premier League action
Nottingham Forest are gearing up for a return to Premier League action as the international break draws to a close.
Fresh crackdown Before the campaign even started, fans were already likely to be aware already of the introduction of prolonged added time, as seen in the World Cup last season. The average length of time the ball was in play during Premier League games last campaign was just 55 minutes.READ MORE: Forest sign talented young midfielder after league upset
Staff are now banned from approaching officials at half-time and at full-time while no more than two people are allowed to coach in the technical area at the same time, with the second individual receiving an automatic yellow card. Therefore, all except one staff member must be seated, although one other member can be standing so long as they are next to their seat - but conversations between the two standing individuals must take place near the bench.
Players are told not to invade the personal space nor confront an official, much less make contact. If more than one player approaches the official in a confrontational manner then the second - and third and fourth, etc - can expect to be cautioned and reported to the FA. There has always been a zero-tolerance approach to tragedy chanting and those who are found guilty of this, or any degrading tragedy gesture, will face tougher sanctions and longer stadium bans as well as criminal charges.Offside Rule One of the most significant changes this season is the clarification of the offside rule. The updated laws of the game state that "a player who is clearly offside should not become onside on every occasion when an opponent moves and touches the ball".
Essentially, if a player concedes a penalty while attempting to play the ball, they will not be shown a red card if the match officials believe it was a genuine attempt to win the ball.
