 "The Premier League team accuses the referee of fraud")
There is nothing surprising in the fact that following a defeat, tempers boil over on the losing side, but it is rare for the club to accuse the referee of partiality on the official social media platform. Especially when we are talking regarding one of the strongest leagues in the world, if not the strongest.
This is exactly the situation in the Premier League. In Sunday’s Everton-Nottingham Forest championship, the home team won 2-0, and following the match, the guests demanded three penalties from the refereeing staff and VAR, and they wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that it was already reported to the referees’ organization (PGMOL) that Luton pushers were sitting in the VAR room.
“Three extremely bad decisions – three missed penalties – that we simply cannot accept,” the statement said. – Before the match, we warned PGMOL that the referee involved in the VAR was a Luton fan, but he was not replaced. Our patience has been tested several times. The NFFC will now consider its options.”
Three extremely poor decisions – three penalties not given – which we simply cannot accept.
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.

Meanwhile, at Everton, they are worried regarding Portuguese striker Beto, who lost consciousness following a head-on collision and had to be taken to hospital.
