[Nottingham Forest | Premier League](https://preview.redd.it/o0f41wxgjzvc1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=c5e57e0041c846780dbc39f7870ea9a2f9a23a4d)
Nottingham Forest’s official account has unleashed a scathing critique aimed at the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), alleging favoritism towards Luton Town and lambasting erroneous refereeing decisions in their 2-0 loss to Everton. The Tricky Trees find themselves precariously perched just a point above 18th-placed Luton following today’s defeat, with only four games left in their battle for survival.
Idrissa Gueye broke the deadlock for the Toffees after 29 minutes, with Dwight McNeil adding a second midway through the second half. [Nottingham Forest](https://www.sportsdunia.com/news/nottingham-forest-slam-premier-leagues-refereeing-body), hovering dangerously close to the relegation zone, expressed frustration over the referee’s decisions, particularly the non-award of a penalty for Ashley Young’s handball inside the box. However, what’s truly sparked attention is the club’s bold accusation that VAR is biased in favor of Luton.
On X, formerly Twitter, Nottingham posted:
“Three extremely poor decisions – three penalties not given – which we simply cannot accept.
We alerted the PGMOL about VAR’s alleged bias towards Luton before the match, but they didn’t make a change. Our patience has been repeatedly tested.
NFFC will now explore its options.”
Openly accusing referees of bias toward a specific club is uncommon, and Nottingham’s statement has garnered both criticism and support from fans in the comments. However, such allegations, lacking concrete evidence, may not sit well with the FA and could potentially lead to sanctions.

I’m so glad someone has finally posted this.
MOTD made a good point in that it was probably more in Lutons best interest if they drew or Forest won so it doesn’t suit the narrative that he purposely cheated them because he is a Luton fan.
Liverpool 🤝 Arsenal 🤝 Nottingham Forest
Sending out tin pot conspiracy statements.
Where is the evidence of bias towards Luton?
Bit the decisions were not given by the bold dude on the pitch 🤔..is he also a Lutton fan ? Or maybe Burnley ? Or what about Everton ? Cause they are all in the same predicament .
Nottingham forrest , with their cheating , sacking a manager who brought them here , with their scum owner who thinks is corleone , with this latter are as incompetent and scummy as the incompetent referees especially VAR . Incompetence all round .
To employ the biggest idiot of them Clattenburg as an referees consultant ? What fucking position us that ? That job description can only be in teaching players how to con referees . What else will he be consulting in ?
