Alan Nixon shares when Everton v Nottingham Forest VAR audio will be made public
The VAR audio from the controversial Premier League clash between Everton and Nottingham Forest will be released by Sky Sports next week, according to Alan Nixon.
The newspaper journalist shared via his Patreon on 24 April that Forest have been given access to the dialogue between Anthony Taylor and Stuart Attwell, but it will not be publicly released until next week.
Howard Webb is set to appear alongside Michael Owen on the Mic’d Up show, amid the media fume from Forest after several controversial decisions were made during the 2-0 Everton win.
VAR audio to be released after Everton controversy v Nottingham Forest
The controversy surrounding the 2-0 win for Sean Dyche’s side has continued to grow since the game, with the likes of Alan Shearer slamming Forest for the aggressive statement made via social media following their defeat.
While Forest have already received the audio from the PGMOL, their fans remain in the dark with regard to the process and decision-making as they were denied three penalty claims in the crucial relegation clash at Goodison Park.
The decisions in question came with Ashley Young involved in all three – initially kicking the foot of Giovanni Reyna, then appearing to handle the ball in the box and later seemingly bringing down Callum Hudson-Odoi inside the area.
This comes shortly after Mark Clattenburg, former Premier League referee and current advisor at Forest, insisted that the club were “victimised” by the officials, labelling the controversial decisions a “joke” after they went against the visitors.
