Does anyone think that moaning and moaning about a conspiracy and an agenda is ever going to change anything?
Are any of you willing to put the effort in to actually agitate for a positive change - for a transparent and accountable running of the game for all teams, not just us?
Serious questions, because I'm prepared to agitate for a fair sport, and do something positive about it.
I tweet the FA and Sky most days telling them what bent cunts they are as do loads of other blues ........... they are very very powerful bodies though but at least they know my and others feelings on a near daily basis , It took decades to get at FIFA and out them bastards so to out the FA and a media powerhouse like SKY would really take something .
Every game in the PL has many Video cameras operating, from pretty much every angle to get the best view of any incident.
So I don't know how many ,but let's say there are twenty video streams during a match.
Now , my take is that the video streams should be owned by the PL. They should be managed by the PL and recorded by the PL. No Broadcaster should have control over this. They should be charged a fee to broadcast using the videos. Of course, they can use those streams as they like. But those stream should be available to any one , after the game for a nominal fee for research and review purposes. Make those streams available on the net after the game.
Each team should, of course have a right to all the streams anyway.
I am thinking of moving to a more transparent way of working here.
Yes it is expensive but just how much money is the PL making ? and also look at how Murdoch had been able to sell his empire on for tens of Billions, (albeit not just on the back of the PL ! ).
All those streams should be available to a fourth independent Referee, in a box in the stadium, that even the Ref doesn't know. Someone who is doing the adjudicating independent of the Ref himself.
The one on the sideline is a waste anyway.
We only need a pseudo trainspotter to manage the substitution board and the extra time calls.
The independent referee and any assistant he needs should be telling the ref how much time to add on too, for time wasting.
Oh ! and pay refs a fortune, so they do not even need to think about extra dosh.
Furthermore the pool of refs should come mainly from ex pros. who have not played for any of the teams in the PL, so we could encourage lower league football players that they have a life after retiring.
We should be developing a pool of refs that means they all get a steady and good income, even though they may not referee every week. It should not matter, there are billions in the coffers.
