Forest tweet

I don't think either were.

But one was given on field, one wasn't.
I think the Young one was a clear penalty personally. Wan Bissaka not so much. But both have been given in similar situations this season. So consistency isn’t being applied.
 
Agree with the MOTD team for the last one.
The ref indicated Young got the ball - he didn’t. It’s an error and should have been reviewed.

The other 2 - if they are given they don’t get over turned.

Did Forest ask for Attwell to be taken off VAR? - sounds nuanced to me.
Doesn’t sound like they used those words but could prob claim they were, in effect, asking for his removal.
That disucssion has to be worth a VAR check by Atwell and Clattenburg.
Last man standing gets the final vote.
 
Turns out that Marinakis had to be talked out of sending that tweet at half time of the matxh, and the 3rd and only genuinely stonewall penalty hadn't even happened yet.

So he was ready to call conspiracy and question the integrity of the officials over two penalties that you could actually understand why VAR didn't intervene over.
