Sadly can’t happen.So last game of the season. Newcastle level with Spurs on points and they are both chasing the last Champions League Place.
Is Michael Oliver (a Newcastle fan) any where near reffing or being on VAR duty for the Spurs game? No.
And is the reason he's no where near the game because the PMGOL or anybody else is questioning his integrity? No.
In fact its the opposite. In the increasingly likely event that a contentious decision goes against Spurs, or 2 decisions, or three decisions and Spurs are denied a Champions League spot as a result, his integrity and that of the PGMOL and of the competition is not in question, because guess what, he's not on duty.
So it isn't about Michael Oliver (it could be any Newcastle fan) and it isn't about questioning his integrity. It's about protecting it.
Atwell is not mentioned in the tweet. It could have been any Luton fan. It could have been a Burnley fan. It's irrelevant, as is their integrity. But the allegiance is critical because he's a fan of a club who are in a relegation battle with the two teams he's overseeing.
Forest were angry. Rightly so. We got absolutely sh*t on by these mugs on Sunday.
But the question posed by the tweet (which still hasn't been addressed) is why was a Luton fan on VAR?
A perfectly reasonable question.
And isn't it a slight irony that you started your post by accusing Forest fans who have defended the club, of being bias because of their allegiance to the club. Football fans are biased? Surely not?
5th champions league place no longer possible..
