Nottingham Forest Could Take Legal Action Against Sky Sports for Gary Neville’s Comments
Nottingham Forest are facing a potential legal battle with Sky Sports after their controversial statement following their defeat to Everton. The club claimed they were denied three penalties and questioned the integrity of VAR Stuart Attwell, alleging he is a Luton supporter.
Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville responded strongly to Forest’s statement, calling it a “mafia-gang” response. This has not gone down well with the Forest hierarchy, who are reportedly considering legal action against the broadcaster.
Despite acknowledging that their emotions may have gotten the better of them, Forest could still face disciplinary action from the FA for their statement. The club has demanded the audio from the rejected penalty appeals to be made public, further escalating the situation.
The Premier League and FA have launched investigations into the matter, calling on key figures such as Nuno Espirito Santo, Neco Williams, and Mark Clattenburg for their versions of events. Ashley Young, the player at the center of the controversial decisions, has also taken a swipe at Forest on social media.
The fallout from Forest’s statement continues to unfold, with the club potentially facing serious consequences for their actions. As the situation develops, it remains to be seen how this controversy will impact the club and their future in the Premier League. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
