Crystal Palace supporters have taken their outrage to UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, delivering a suitcase filled with counterfeit money as a dramatic sign of protest.

The Eagles qualified for the Europa League by winning the FA Cup last term, only to be excluded from it for an alleged breach of UEFA regulations relating to multi-club ownership.

But Palace have appealed against the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and the verdict is expected to be delivered on August 11.

Were the decision to be upheld, Nottingham Forest would likely take their place in the Europa League, with Palace dropping into the Europa Conference League.
