Nottingham Forest fans rage at new twist on Everton controversy

Nottingham Forest fans have revisited their rage with English officials following their VAR controversy at the Euros on Friday.

Premier League officiating duo Anthony Taylor and Stuart Attwell were behind the much-maligned check [MailOnline, 21 June] which took almost three minutes in disallowing Xavi Simons’ goal for the Netherlands against France following a subjective player involvement call which rendered the strike offside.

It is the longest a VAR review has taken in the tournament so far as the match finished goalless, reigniting the debate on whether English officials simply cannot complete checks quickly enough compared to their foreign counterparts.

Forest fans flocked to social media to sympathise with Dutch supporters, following their own highly controversial moment involving the pair in their Premier League match with Everton on 21 April – Football Insider [1 May] collected the reactions of the Forest fanbase to the released VAR audio from the incident.

Nottingham Forest fans’ tirade against English officials at Euros

What’s fair to say is that the Nottingham Forest support aren’t forgetting the Everton match in a hurry, and were quick to stand with the incandescent Dutch.

Atwell thinks he’s on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, had to phone a friend before giving an answer. Shambles and no surprise. #NEDFRA #NFFC— Chris Flint (@ChrisFl43569312) June 21, 2024

21 games without VAR controversy, up step English PGMOLs finest pair of clowns – Taylor & Attwell.
With their PL league record, how were they sent to #EURo2024?

Now an entire country understands how #NFFC felt. Send them home. pic.twitter.com/5qoytePsLj— FFSForest (@Forest_No_22) June 22, 2024

Has know it all Neville commented on Attwell and Taylor being the worst refereeing pair yet at #EURo2024 PGMOL should but won't be embarrassed although they're properly exposed on a world stage. #nffc were right then and now.— CB (@Carl_B77) June 22, 2024

Taylor and Attwell are utterly useless, incompetent clowns. How on earth the pair keep their jobs is beyond me. They’ve embarrassed us on the international stage. Taylor did the same in the 2023 UEL final against Mourinho’s Roma.
As a #NFFC fan the game against Everton ????????— ????????#NFFC ???????????????????????????? (@simonadams18) June 21, 2024

Just seen the Attwell/Taylor disallowed goal… That's bad even by their bottom of the barrel standards. #NFFC— RichardM8422 (@RichardM8422) June 21, 2024

Stuart Atwell and Anthony Taylor doing what they do best…. incompetency. Atwell not sending him to the monitor? Where we heard that before? ???? Sack em both #nffc— Críostóir Ó Ruanaidh (@weallhaterams) June 21, 2024

Stuart Atwell doesn’t hate #NFFC.

Surprise, surprise…Attwell at the wheel with his partner in crime Taylor. Don’t say #NFFC didn’t warn you. Strongly worded tweet from Dutch FA incoming… https://t.co/e6BnQIAeYP— Nirbhai Singh (@nirbhai) June 21, 2024
