I think the issue is that yes, the technology is there to review decisions, but how far do you go back.

The Liverpool 'goal' on sunday - do you just review the offside decision, or look at a stage in play beyond that with the climbing on the defender, or go back further to see if it was actually a free kick to Liverpool that lead to the ball being played into the box, and before that was the disputed throw in decision 30 second before the free kick awarded correctly?

In my opinion, any technologies that remove the game further away from what you see in the park on a Sunday is bad for the sport.   I say leave it as it is, if only because if there wasn't controversy this board would be full of pointless polls and 'who's the best Town player called Steve?' type threads.


I'd probably go for Sherwood by the way  


But the game at the top level is nothing like the game on a park on Sunday. Players on wages of millions of pounds per year are competing for major trophy's and millions in prize money.  With such high stakes matches should not be decided on the basis of easily correctable errors.

Good call on Sherwood, but I think Livvo has a shout too.......

Nah, it's got to be Steve Saunders, the guy was a legend.  

I was at Crewe when he scored twice in the first 5 minutes, I thought I was hallucinating.
