The English "Premier" league and all English football saw something on Sunday in the social space that probably would never have been seen before.
The official "Nottingham Forest" account on the X platform (formerly Twitter) stated that decisions in the match against "Everton" were made in the VAR room by fans of direct rival team "Luton Town".
"Three extremely poor decisions - three penalties not given - which we simply cannot accept.
We warned the PGMOL (referee association) that VAR is controlled by "Luton Town" fans, but they didn't change anything.
Our patience has been tested multiple times. "Nottingham Forest" will now consider its options" - wrote the official account.

We warned the PGMOL that the VAR is a Luton fan before the game but they didn’t change him. Our patience has been tested multiple times.
NFFC will now consider its options.
As reported by "Independent" journalist Miguel Delaney, the FA (Football Association) has initiated an investigation into potential disrespect of "Nottingham Forest".
All three episodes mentioned by the club occurred in the first half.
