Forest did not ask for VAR official to be changed

Nottingham Forest did not ask for Stuart Attwell to be taken off video assistant referee duties for their match against Everton, BBC Sport has been told.

Following their 2-0 defeat at Goodison Park on Sunday, Forest posted on X, external that they are "considering their options" over "extremely poor" refereeing decisions they felt went against them.

The club said they had "warned" the Professional Game Match Officials Board (PGMOL) that "the VAR is a Luton fan but they didn't change him".

But, BBC Sport has also been told Forest did not express that they had an issue with Attwell's involvement.
