Percy does have a point. 

Irrelevant of the absolute Ott statement, the level of officiating this year has been dreadful again 

 

 

My first reaction is that it's about time it was called out. The quality of refereeing and particularly VAR is so poor and yet managers are scared to have a whinge on MOTD in case of a fine.

They're such tinpot twats. Never forget the absolute disgrace of a play-off final that got them into this league.

[Bilo]

Forest were the luckiest club in English football last season. They're now surely the most embarrassing. 

 

Imagine if they get points back on appeal for the PSR breach and then get them knocked off again for bringing the game into disrepute.

Villa in front now 2-1, Diaby with the goal

Percy sticking up for Forest, although Forest aren't whinging that it's shit officials today, they're making out it's a conspiracy against them

[Vacamion]

 

Deduct them more points for this.

 

And send the bloke out to make the announcement about the points deduction wearing a Luton Town shirt.

tbf the officials as a whole have been terrible this season; from prem to league 2

 

obvious mistakes are happening far far to often and its even worse in the prem with VAR when these mistakes shouldnt happen

all teams get is a meaningless apology for mistakes that can cost millions

[Des.]

Palace have 5 now, oh dear West Ham

This is absolutely embarrassing. You can’t do that! Complete losers.

 

They’re not the first club to have decisions go against them and they won’t be the last. They need to grow up and stop being such stupid babies.
 

The quicker they frig off back down to League One the better.

Karma's a bitch. 

[Footballwipe]

Not long until a referee gets hurt because clubs are increasingly empowering warped fans with this conspiratorial rhetoric.

 

Clubs will then note their shock and condemnation despite being fully complicit in enabling these actions.

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Villa's recruitment has been exceptional.... particularly the youngster Morgan Rogers only 21 signed from Boro and an ex Man city academy player

Honestly, and not even just because it's Forest, I would like to see the PL come down hard on this kind of rhetoric for exactly that reason. What happens when death threats to referees go beyond that? Grossly irresponsible for a football club to encourage it

Oh my god, they are the gift that keeps on giving. Absolutely deluded levels of victim complex. This season of theirs has been incredibly funny to witness from afar, it's a travesty that they might stay up by the skin of their teeth but fingers crossed one of Burnley or Luton catch them.

Can't believe there's a photo of Marinakis writing that tweet

[foxfanazer]

Great free kick by Trent 

[StanSP]

Quality free kick. 

[Stinkenzo]

Throw the book at them.

 

Bit rich considering they're the only club in the country to have a relatively recent former ****ing referee employed. 

[ealingfox]

Obviously they look properly tinpot for that (and they are) but the officiating was disgraceful and they should have just walked off after the third one.

That’s defamation. They’ll get sued for that. Has the dodgy owner got hold of the account? 

[The Doctor]

15 points deduction would guarantee relegation and tie them up with derby for the record points low, just saying PL

Were they really outrageous decisions then or just ones that get given by one ref one week but not another the next?

 

VAR makes that worse of course because you could have 4 different points of views.

 

Should Chelsea start asking questions about yesterday.
