maybe they should test it on lower division. so many changes lately, every season something new
As per usual the premier league always slow on the uptake compared to Europe. The dinosaur-like reluctance for change from the powers that be continues to hold us back. These are the same people that flat out refused to adopt the 5 subs policy until covid forced it upon us and they could no longer pretend it wasn’t an obviously beneficial thing. About time.
Don’t get too excited, apparently the PL had a choice between 2 companies, the one with a chip in the ball (that FIFA uses), and the one without. They obviously went with the latter.
The limitation of the one without is that if the area is too crowded it may become impossible to determine where the ball is, and therefore a decision can’t be made, and the backup is VAR which if anyone remembers the Arsenal vs Newcastle controversy, is the exact same limitation VAR has when it comes to always being able to determine where the ball is.
Might be an unpopular opinion but I think that if it’s so close that you need high tech cameras to work out if a player is a fraction of a millimeter offside then it’s just getting stupid
If it’s clearly offside then it’s offside, if it’s too close to call to the human eye then let it go, who gives a fuck
Just more money being wasted on needless crap when the fans are paying the bill
