Well that certainly lived up to its billing as "El Fiasco". I don't agree with those saying we shouldn't rock the boat with that tweet and that we're sore losers because we played poorly. Both sides were poor but we did well enough to merit at least a point: great Pickford save, shots on target, huge miss by MGW. It was always going to be tight and any one of those penos may have pushed the momentum back to us and we win or draw. The officiating was beyond a joke and I'm all in favour of Forest going to war over this. It may be "embarrassing" for us but it's certainly also embarrassing to PGMOL and the PL because the "mistakes" are as clear as day and have broad consensus. If they broke their own rules regarding resolving conflict of interest of VAR then this needs to be taken up higher. Unfortunately I don't know if there is an actual legal pathway for that. We should try to set a precedent though.
