What random shit am I throwing out there?
Refs are selected for games based on the knowledge of whom they support, something they have to confirm at the beginning of every season. This is done to avoid conflicts of interests.
There are numerous cases of officials being moved as a consequence. The are also other cases where refs haven’t refereed games where they have been selected on the basis that his match has a club also in a relegation battle with his rival team and thefore might be seen to affect the outcome of the relegation battle.
In addition to this every club also has the right to raise a concern about a ref and perceived bias before the game and there arse cases where the referee has been moved off the game.
I don’t know if this protocol exists for the VAR officials, I’m assuming it doesn’t and that makes sense because they don’t make decisions, the ref does and the VAR officials of which there are a total 5 (atheists VAR officials who is current or ex-ref, 3 assistants and a video technician) work together, so would all have to be in on it for any bias to be applied.
The owner of Nottingham Forest whose facing allegations of drug trafficking, who has in Greece been accused of match fixing, who routinely accuses match officials of match fixing in post match statements that are basically childish rants, who only a couple of weeks ago came onto the pitch rowing with officials, kicked football onto the pitch to get a match stopped, then instigated a full scale pitch invasion, who hires Clattenburg as some kind of bad decision mouthpiece, whose sacked 19 managers in 6yrs is seen to be the poor hard done by club owner and is right to accuse the match officials as corrupt.
Bloody hell, the world has truly gone fucking mad.
What a load of mental gymnastic waffle, all you've done is collated the last 2 pages of your nonsense in a load of paragraphs in one post.
I know you stubbornly won't let go of your point about how badly Forest have approached this but like I said 2 things can be true, at the end of the day no referee or VAR team member should be near a match which they can influence preceedings and no they can't make decisions but they can recommend that ref to look at an incident again.
This is where the issue lies, Forest had 3 legit pen shouts, even if you don't think 2 of them were pens then the 3rd one most definately was, the referee said that Young got the ball but in the replay it's
clear he didn't touch it so it's a foul and a red card, this is where VAR normally come in and suggest that the ref watch it again, that's literally how the system is meant to fucking work.
If you watch the video release of our match against Chelsea to get a clear understanding of how the system works, Michael Oliver didn't see the Romero incident until his VAR team recommended him to watch it again on the monitor, now you tell me is that not an example of how they can influence an outcome of a match, yes or no?

Look how proactive VAR is here, they virtually give that pen and the red card to Romero themselves, now bearing in mind in the Forest/Everton match the ref didn't go to the screen not
once.
Now do you realise how a VAR assistant who supports a direct rival can have an influence on things and direct an entire narrative of a football match? ...so the questions remain:
Why wasn't those decisions called despite clear evidence that the 3rd incident completely contradicted what the referees said?
Why is their a fan of a rival team who is on the VAR allowed to participate in a match and have a direct influence of how a match is called?
Is there little wonder why people think it looks like something fishy is going on and if not then it's general recklessness and rank incompetence to even think that there is nothing wrong with that.
I can't believe someone is sat on here outright defending the PGMOL to the hilt when they've been utter dogshit and an embarrassment since they've come into the PL, you're acting like that dog nonce Dermot fucking Gallagher just doing your best to ignore any shred of evidence put before you because it doesn't suit your anti Forest narrative, weird why someone would go to so much lengths to try and defend PGMOL.
