Nottingham Forest feel they “need to stand up for ourselves more” over poor refereeing performances.
On the back of last Sunday's 2-2 draw with Everton, the club have submitted a dossier to the Professional Game Match Officials Board (PGMOL). It came after head coach Steve Cooper blasted referee John Brooks’ performance against the Toffees, saying he had “too much impact on the game”.
The Reds were particularly incensed by the decision to award a free-kick in the visitors' favour, which led to their second goal, rather than for a foul on Morgan Gibbs-White. It is among a number of calls against Forest which have come under scrutiny this season.
