Nottingham Forest have formally requested the PGMOL to release the VAR audio from their 2-0 defeat to Everton on Sunday. The club had three penalty appeals dismissed by match referee Anthony Taylor, with VAR Stuart Attwell endorsing the decisions.
In a statement released on Monday, Forest said:
“Nottingham Forest has today submitted a formal request to the PGMOL to release into the public domain the audio recordings between officials during yesterday’s match against Everton at Goodison Park.
The club has requested this be shared for three key match incidents – Ashley Young’s challenge on Giovanni Reyna (24th minute), Ashley Young’s handball (44th minute) and Ashley Young’s challenge on Callum Hudson-Odoi (56th minute).
We firmly advocate for the broader football community and supporters to have access to the audio and transcript for full transparency, ensuring the integrity of our sport is upheld.”
