REFEREES’ allegiances are set to be made public this season, Howard Webb has said.

Nottingham Forest incurred a Football Association charge in May after they criticised the decision to appoint Stuart Attwell — a Luton fan — as the VAR for their match against Everton where they felt Attwell denied three clear penalty claims.

Webb, the chief refereeing officer for Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), said there were no plans to alter the allegiances rules after Forest insisted it should take “contextual rivalries” into account when making match appointments.
