    Forest accuse VAR of cheating!

    They have just lost 2-0 to Everton in their crucial relegation battle and have basically accused the VAR of cheating. They had warned PGMOL that the VAR was a Luton fan and asked he be replaced. He wasn't and the claim is they subsequently had 3 'stonewall' penalties declined.

    Interesting?

    It may take 4 weeks to filter down the jury for the Donald Trump case in New York.Conflicts of Interest are a big deal. Ask any lawyer,ask any businessman.I don't give a damn about Notts Forest.The point isn't about questioning anyone's integrity,the point is about,can anyone's integrity be questioned?

    All 3 could have been given no doubt, but they weren’t stonewall either, and in real time the ref didn’t give any of them. Are forest saying he ref cheated as well ?

    Are Managers and players sick and tired of VAR and this lot are sounding out on it no matter what the consequences may be?

    I think in the same way they were fed up with inconsistencies in refereeing they are now fed up with inconsistencies in VAR, not helped by some pretty ambiguous rules. At least 2 of the 3 penalty incidents that Forest complain about have been given in other games.

    Would artificial intelligence done any better, or is that the only way to get it right?

    Talking of VAR (and the "4th" Coventry goal). Has, after review, any goal ever been allowed to stand on the basis that attacker was level with last defender
