    "fix everything"... " Don't take it personal P, if I was calling you out you know I would.

    I am just talking football fans in general there.

        In fact, the inclusion of technology has itself been part of the attraction of the game. Every time they call up on Hawk Eye to determine if that was really an ace in tennis, the crowd starts up a little cheer as they track the ball on the monitor. The same thing happens in cricket. Technology has not made any of these sports slower and more boring. What it has done is made them fairer. What's wrong with that?!?!?
        How can you tief when the game is fairer?

          Nah stop say it - get rid of that silly offside rule and free up football!
          Well, I agree on getting rid of the offside rule. I have played in a number of games where because of the format there was no offside; it didn't have a material impact on the game; the only thing I am not sure of is how some clever manager might use it to change the game in some unseen way. However, as these things go, you do it, try it, fix it - best way to evolve.

            I agree with you Karl; the problem is when the dive fools the ref and a penalty is awarded. This is why I am advocate for replays to be used on critical calls... (red cards, penalties, goals) a video replay could, maybe not always, show if contact was made in some cases where no contact is made and a player goes down (deliberately) and is rewarded with a penalty.

            If after review it can be determined that the player "simulated" then give him a RED, even if him name Suarez!
            ...but did the dive 'fool' the ref?
            Let's look on the other side: When a foul is not called has the ref been 'fooled'?


            Boss, the ref is calling it as he sees it!
            The dive or foul is not 'fooling' the ref...in either case the ref sees the incident and calls accordingly!!!
