Should Video Technology Be Introduced Into Football?

I really wasn't sure where to put this so I put it in the Chat, Feel free to move it if it shouldn't be here.

Right watching the Rugby over the Weekend made me think. Should Video Technology be brought into football? Just like in Rugby with the Tries etc.

What are your thoughts?

 

yes its been successful in my opinion in American sports. Hockey and football both use it and its not allowed for referees to interfere as much or stupid or bad, or missed calls.

 

Yeah and I think it's rediculous the way Managers blame Referees for loss's when their team have lost by like 4 Goals.

And the Prime example is Neil Warnock at the Weekend about Sheffield United against Liverpool. He said something like,
"Liverpool knew who the Referee was so they tried to get pentalys"

 

I think it's a great idea..
If it was...we would have had that stonewall Lennon penalty at Ibrox given..

 

Plus we can have no behind the line saves from Man United Goalkeppers

 

If celtic had to get all the penalty decisions the discussion in the dressing room would be:

wgs: Right who wants to take the penaltys today

Miller: I can't be bother

Lennon: I already have 10 goals this season

Telfer: Am off to barca

its the 8th wonder of the world why it hasent,

 

it would be good as long as it did not slow the game down too much, but it would improve the game, since we would have less dodgy referreeing decisions.

 

only for goal line and offisde-leading to a goal decisions. anymore and it would ruin the banter after games, imo alot of what makes football great is debating things like decisions

 

Dont really like it, it'll slow it down too much and the momentum lost. And when you mention hockey and american fotball, those are slow as * from it.

 

might help kenny miller then,,lol

 

Exactly my thoughts.

To the point "it would improve the game": I think referees with way too many mistakes all the time should be sacked anyway.

 

i think football should take a hint from rugby ie like when a player dives stop the time , and the use off video technology

 

are you kidding me? reviews have nothing to do with the speed of both american football and hockey. There are always less than 2 reviews a game in football(by rule you can only have 2 and hardly ever.. do they go pass it. Plus its mostly for possession and catching a pass which wouldnt make a difference in soccer) and hockey your lucky once every 2-3 weeks.

 

NAH being human means making mistakes and if we couldnt blame the ref no more it be boring... adds 2 the appeal of football imo...makes u mad or makes u laugh

 

Soccer isnt a start/stop game like American Football, Ice Hockey or Rugby. It would slow down the game too much.

One rule that should be taken from rugby is that only the captains are allowed to talk to the referee, it would stop him getting swarmed at every decision

 

No chance

There will be decisions that even video can't decide and it will destroy the traditions of the game from grass root level

Mistakes are apart of the game

 

Mistakes are tradition? cant let them go out of the game?? What are you smoking mate!

 

What i'm saying is football would be a very very boring game if the best team won all the time

Plus mistakes ARE apart of our game without them you would stop all football banter imo
