LUKE BERRY dished out his own brand of punishment to Nottingham Forest, then revealed he was not aware today's the day of reckoning for their relegation rival.
Forest face a possible points deduction after being charged with breaking Profit and Sustainability Rules and are expected to learn the outcome of their recent hearing today.
Midfielder Berry explained how boss Rob Edwards (right) reacted to Forest's charges being made public in January by urging his players to go out and win more points than Nuno Espirito Santo's side anyway.
He said: "The manager put the topic of the points deduction to bed early doors.
"He just said, 'Let's get above them without this points deduction. Let's put that out of our thoughts and just focus on us'.
"We are only three points off them. We will focus on trying to close that gap of three points."
