@SiClancy@henrywinter Cost-efficiency wise it doesn't make a lot of sense. It essentially adds yet another referee to the decision-making process. Just have the linesmen doing offsides and the pitch ref using a monitor (without a var) to double-check his own decision if could be controversial/crucial
@SiClancy@henrywinter Because PL games are spread too thinly for TV purposes? Most NFL games are on the Sun whereas PL are Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, even Tues & Weds. Your excellent idea would need more games at once to make it pay.
@henrywinter@Trentvilla1 Like when PGMOL investigated themselves over the Middle East refereeing/VAR work? Their credibility is in tatters as players, fans, sponsors & especially the betting industry cannot trust them.
