I don't think the PGMOL lacks accountability. They mainly lacked integrity as Wenger once put it.
All the decisions favour certain clubs generally and it's no surprise. They are using the system to manipulate results.
Of course, they do - hardly anything happens to them and when they own up to a mess nothing gets changed. Maybe a ref gets suspended but he'll be right back making the same mistakes. Also, if they were more accountable the lack of integrity would be questioned a lot more openly.
On the other note, as much as I agree that refereeing is hard to do, the advent of VAR has shown how many of the errors are just down to poor judgment. Even if you dismiss Odegaard on Eriksen as arguable, Romero on Cucurela was so blatant the decision-making amounted to a joke.
