This whole conspiracy bullshit needs to stop.

Yes, the decisions were shite.

But does anyone think the league is trying to protect Everton over us? The same Everton they've dished two separate points deductions to?

f***ing hell. Get a grip lads.
So you’re telling me if you were a Forest fan making key VAR decisions which could impact the club you love, you would not be biased in opinion?

It is ridiculous that the league allowed a Luton fan to be in charge of those decisions today.
Maybe if 1 went against us you could label it ridiculous, but the fact it was THREE CLEAR penalties you are absolutely wrong to tell us to get a grip, it’s clear foul play.

It's not about Everton or even Luton it's about how unfairly we are being treated.

It's no longer a coincidence or bad luck when we actively asked for Attwell to be removed and remember he has been involved in lots of dubious shit with us over many years.

Increased views for the last game of the season though.

Regardless if we think it's true or not the statement is embarrassing. Do it properly, do it through official channels, don't put it on stupid social media for the world to laugh at us.

Yes I think we should have had 3 penalties today and yes Everton got lucky with there 2 shots but I'm ashamed the way we've gone about this.. deserve all the criticism we get

The bias could, probably would be, unconscious too.

Even if this were to happen, what do we get? Nothing. I know there's a burning sense of injustice and I share it but we're not going to get any points back. And the problem is that this and the points deduction give the players and Nuno excuses for poor performance. It's all distraction. We need a relentless focus on results and we're not getting it.
Money. A big pile of it.

Given that Forest have effectively libeled and slandered these folks, they could choose to defend a lawsuit and/or go after the PGMOL and the PL for negligence.

I doubt anyone involved would expect to get points back, so following the money and taking it out of these folks' pockets will be the objective.

I agree we were poor today and it makes a convenient distraction, but someone has to be the first to fire shots back.

But they aren't going to remove an official just on our say so if it doesn't breach their rules or policies.

See first points deduction not last year which would have relegated them, second deduction which didn't want to (and is so far off what it should have been anyway) and third hearing which is going onto next season.

While I think the system is designed to be 'interpreted' and therefore allows the kind of errors we've seen today, I do think at least two of those today are given to a 'big club' and that the whole thing is skewed in their favour, so while today may not be direct result of conspiracy I do think there is corruption in the PL, yes.

I agree, I watched Luton and they were lucky not to be 4 or 5 down at half time, they then got worse in the 2nd half.

We defend quite well in normal play, today aside letting those two long shots go in.

Luton’s defence is terrible whenever I see them, they’re all over the place.

Club have succeeded in diverting attention away from how crap we were today. Not one player warranted more than a four today (Williams, and Aina) Sels poor with the goals, MGW gave the ball away way too much, Wood anonymous, CHO did nothing, Danillo very poor, Did Reyna play?, maybe Dominquez isn't the saviour.

it was a poor game and one im happy to have won. Penalty wise i thought the first wasn't, the second is a maybe and third one should have been. I have seen all those given against us this season and i have seen them not given for us multiple times. Refereeing standards are in the gutter. its not a conspiracy (although the top 6 seem to benefit more often than not).

i think you will be fine in terms of staying up. Luton dont win much. You will more than likely get some ponts bac this week (i think 2) and one more win should do it for you.

Also-if we feel we need to complain,perhaps not straight after the final whistle-which smacks
of sour grapes in the heat of the moment.
There are better ways to register our disapproval in a more dignified and considered manner.

We’ve gone through official channels several times before and where as that got us? Nowhere, so a different approach is required.

Its getting boring fans peddling the Luton argument after every shit performance too. "Ive said it all along, Luton are shit" blah blah f***ing blah. Worry about Forest, and how shit we are.

That was shocking, end of story. Relying on other teams being shit is getting ridiculous.

I always back managers as far as I can but Nuno is either clueless or just plain stubborn, what is he telling the players before games? Everton are absolutely wank but along come Forest to shine their shoes like every other shit team we play.

Im f***ing raging about that dross we served up today.

One thing that has reassured me about that tweet, is that Jamie Carragher says we have to show more class. He epitomises class does ‘spitter Jamie’ so knows his stuff with regards to acting with class, so we should really pipe down.
Plus he simultaneously admitted we were screwed out of several penalties whilst he condemned us for complaining about it, which is some feat.

Unquestionably could have gone about this better across the season, but whether or not we go down, I’m under no illusions that this league stinks to high heaven and is driven by agendas just as much as football. As a friend of mine who doesn’t follow Huddersfield will point out: it’s quite possibly an agenda that got us here in the first place. Look at how news worthy we’ve been. Regardless, this is not the sport I love and the sport it should be, so I have no problem with the club speaking truth to power. It won’t end well for us. But I’d be more ashamed of us if we limped meekly off home.
