With all the millions of ?s swilling around in football, why haven't the authorities invested a part of this income in television technology - i.e, TV refs.
This technology is being used in Rugby and Cricket - why not fitba?

I think the main reason why it isn't is because the controversy created by not giving officials access to TV replays etc, sells newspapers, gives mega-rich players an opportunity to bemoan their "bad luck" and to give supporters extra ammunition to castigate the on field refs.
