Snatchday 1: Nottingham Forest Vs the PGMOL

Maybe the if refs could focus on giving correct decisions we wouldn't be in this position, now would we?
Did I not say I'm as peeved as the next bloke, we've had a dogshit trot for most of the season but nows the time for the players to show some cahunas with only 4 games left as they are hardly blameless in this shit stain of a season!

Evidently there seems to be a clear divide. The majority of the main stream media lot such as Neville, Carragher, Shearer, Richards are all completely against us. BBC and Sky Sports describing the statement as bizarre. You know, the corporations that have financial links with the Premier League. Then you have the ones like Goldridge that are cheering us on. Lastly, other than fans of rival clubs, the overwhelming feeling is one of support.

At the end of this we will be shafted once more, and don’t be surprised if it’s another points penalty. But at this point I’ve personally hit a point where I don’t really care. I’m glad we have highlighted just how bad refereeing of our games has been and this has been coming for a long time. The FA and Premier League don’t seem to take any accountability for glaring errors that have affected us.

And for what it’s worth, I hope Crystal Palace get shafted with some terrible reffing next season that costs them their Premier League place.

Never mind about replacing Stuart Atwell, could we please demand Sky replace Andy f***ing Hinchcliffe on commentary if we ever play Everton again?

Having waged war against VAR, it has to be all in, there is no turning back now, prepare to get even more shitty decisions or get the odd penalty as a placating gesture when it doesn't matter.

It might be a case of after the PSR appeal, there's a court case that Forest bring against the Premier league if they end up going down.
...which is almost certainly why we employed Clattenburg - as an expert witness - in readiness for this eventuality.


Also I don't trust the PMGOL an inch. Not one bit.
I wouldn't put it past them to invent the audio they release.
There's too much money at stake for them.
If it exists, it can be made available instantly, by which i mean NOW.
If they delay before handing it over, I will simply have to question its veracity.

They’d be on very sticky ground if they tampered with the audio.
I doubt very much that they would risk bringing the Premier League crashing down around their ears.

Still watching, but interesting bit (8mins) about the bi-monthly meeting between broadcasters and PGMOL re previous weeks talking points and the Talk sport warning MG got
I couldn’t figure out if that was pgmol with the broadcasters or maybe the prem…

In my opinion either of them having a regular meeting with broadcasters starts to border on unethical.

Kind of wanted them to expand a bit more on that point but they moved on quite quickly.

As someone who has worked in sports production for nearly 10 years, this would take a matter of minutes to be made available and publish. Especially at a facility like Stockley Park.

Think it was PGMOL with the media, which is why MG got reprimanded by talk sport after a reckless tweet

If they'd got any integrity about them, they'd have already made it available.

Not for me. Stan ruined it all in the manner he left.
I do know what your saying but for those 2 seasons when he was actually fit I've never known anything like it everytime he picked the ball up and ran you expected him to score and he usally did also his long range shots were deadly he was simply unbelievable for us but as with most gifted people he has massive flaws but I simply can't dislike him due to the joy he brought the last minute goal on that amazing day in Peterborough will never leave me

A prodigiously talented player in my top11, but wasted it and then made seriously bad life choices, pipes up with clips of his goals and stats to back up bad takes

Over 40 million views on that tweet in the last 30 hours.

A quick look round the internet, and even the likes of Taylor Swift, Elon Musk and FC Barcelona have not managed it on any of theirs in the same time.

Ladies and gentlemen, consider this a warning shot.

As Graeme Souness intimated earlier, referees have always favoured the so called 'big clubs'

The pundits (most of who are effectively cheerleaders for these clubs) know this and obviously want it to continue.

With the introduction of VAR, 'clear and obvious' has been initiated to allow refs to carry on 'subjectively' favouring the big clubs.

But VAR has exposed the bias. People can actually see it with their own eyes.

It's corrupt. And it needs to end.

Forest considering sueing Neville now apparently.

Just your average week following Forest really.

Theres a Jeff Winter clip where he spoke about how he was unable to ref Newcastle or Sunderland in the Prem due to him being a Middlesbrough fan, then he says he made a decision against Man United, and he never reffed them again...
