I think they should be used at every game possible. some deciosions cost leagues and cups and its about damn time they did something about it. The technology is here to do it fast, and it wont take up a massive part of the game, after all, the time the players use complaining to the ref/linesman takes ages sometimes and no=one mmoans about that, so why not do it? | | | | | 26-08-07, 06:29 PM | #2 (permalink) | | What Bozza can do with an orange, I can do with a grape!

They limit the number of challenges to 3 a set to limit shannigans. a FK from the Circle in front of the box sounds good, a spot kick or you could do the old NASL penalty shot (starts from 30 yrds out takes it in has 10 seconds to shoot.)

Boots, kits, pitches an the balls have changed so much, so how a 10 second video decision will ruin the game i dont know. | | | | |  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is On | | | |
