The timing was impeccable. Just 48 hours after Nottingham Forest's outrageous social media statement called the impartiality and integrity of Premier League referee Stuart Attwell into question, after they were denied three penalty appeals against Everton, UEFA announced that Attwell had been appointed as a VAR for Euro 2024.
It perfectly illustrates the disconnect with refereeing today. Fans on social media call for Attwell to never referee again, and he's selected to officiate at European football's flagship tournament.
