Quotethey are talking about bringing it in but only for goals. it wont be used for offsides or freekicks or punch ups or anything else.
I think it should be given a go nut i dont think it can work , i dont think it would slow the game down , will a video ref really take that long to view the replay , will Gary neville have even finished giving out to the ref by the time the verdict comes back .
Any game you watch on tv sky have shown the replay 5 or 6 times and then it goes back to the game and the players are still moaning .
But i cant see it working there is just not enough cameras out there to monitor every game if you think about it you will need a camera on the goal line ( 2 ) following the ball so thats a min of 3 per pitch . Thats ok in the prem league when sky have cameras at every ground but what if the camera does nt have a good angle or misses the incident , What happens if the ref calls for the vid ref then he comes back and says i dont know !!! there is no way it would work in say the Irish league where most first div games have no camera's at the game at all .
What if players start looking for it for everything you could claim and offside is just as important as a goal mouth scramble , what if he is onside and the ref gives it offside then the vid over rules him does the attacker get the free kick ? its hardly the same to have a one one reduced to a free kick .
I just think it would lead to more problems than it would solve , No harm looking into it though .

he souldve been sent off for that. that would just mean he wasnt allowed to be used. bit **** really, it should also take away a sub nuber, ie: if 3 subs arepermitted to be made, this should use up one of them
I cant see how they can decide that a "ball over the line" incident is any more important to the out come of the game than a onside goal ruled offside .
I dont think it can work , id like to see the if the ref has ruled on it rule thrown out , you know where someone stamps on a player but the ref only books him nothing more can be done after the game .
il agree with you here. it is pure daft. if we miss an incident in the game that a camera picks up, then disiplinary measures should be enforced. it should not be down to the ref to change his mind in his report because most refs are such arogant b*****ds that they wont accept that they made a mistake. for some reason they see themselves above everyone else, which i dont understand seeing as it takes a one hour course to become one, although you are continually assessed.
Most players act like kids so why shouldn't refs treat them so?Power trip ?
They dont like the idea of someone else being able to over rule them . i know im messing but ive played in games where the refs are just ignorant idiots on a power trip shouting things at you like walk away now or ill book you , treating you like a kid and im not one for mouthing off to refs .
