Reid challenged referee Paul Tierney after Forest’s earlier this month loss to Liverpool.
It was discovered that he had spoken to Tierney using more than three expletives.
In addition, Forest was fined £75,000 for its involvement in the incident.
Failure to make sure that players and technical personnel “did not behave in an improper way after the final whistle” cost the Premier League team their game. The club acknowledged the accusation.
Darwin Nunez’s victory at City Ground in the 99th minute was followed by the incident.
What took place?
When the game started, Forest controlled the ball outside the penalty area.
It was stopped in stoppage time of the second half after Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate suffered a head injury.
The decision by Tierney to give control back to Liverpool through a drop-ball, from which Nunez scored—albeit over two minutes after the game resumed—infuriated the home team.
