Glasner accepts Forest move will upset Palace fans
[Getty Images] Oliver Glasner understands Crystal Palace fans will be upset by his move to Nottingham Forest. The former Eagles boss joined Forest on a three-year deal this month after leaving Selhurst Park at the end of last season. The two teams have struck up a rivalry since Forest took Palace's place in the Europa League last term. Eagles fans were unhappy with Forest's involvement in their demotion from the Europa League to Conference League for breaching multi-ownership rules, with Forest expressing their concerns to Uefa. Glasner ended up guiding Palace to the Conference League title - 12 months after winning the FA Cup - and recognises how some supporters will feel about the move. "I always can understand what people are thinking, their own motivation, their own thoughts and that's what I completely accept," he said. "I hope everybody accepts that I can't ask every single one: 'Do you agree with my decision?' Because then I don't know where I would end. "That's why I have to take my own decision for my family and for myself, and it was also enough to convince my family to leave again. It was probably the hardest part of this decision. "I always try to understand everybody. This also gives me a different view. I like some feedback and sometimes I agree, sometimes I don't agree, but yes, I can understand this. "I had two and a half fantastic years at Palace - an amazing time, amazing connections to the players and staff, to the chairman, owners and fans. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible to win three trophies. "I'm really pleased to have been part of it but now a new chapter begins with a new book to write at Forest."
