At last football turns to technology

It's been a while. I've been busy.

What significant things have happened in the world of football?

Perhaps the best thing is the implementation of goal-line technology in the Premier League. Although things have been rather quite on the disputed goals front, I'm sure the referees are enjoying the 'buzz' they must be getting every time a goal is scored.

Plus One (at last) for a step into the 21st Century for football and technology.

Perhaps we could implement the same technology for the ball in and out of play as it seems to me that assistant referees are over-zealous when calling the ball out of play when it gets anywhere near the touchline. Not quite as important as a goal or not, of course, but do they really think the whole of the ball has crossed the line when it touches the white stuff?

A short re-start, but I'll be back again soon.
