Football

NAY NAY and THRICE NAY to video replays will do nothing for the game but slow it down, unnecessarily, I'll keep telling all of you whinging bastards, that video replay has enhanced none of the sports it is in, it just gives the media more to talk about, and the fans more time to gaze at their navels as someone looks at all the replays from different angles, before getting it wrong.

Video replays are an abomination and should be kept as far as possible from football. Fans and managers need to man up and accept that mistakes happen in football, because its officiated by humans and nobody's perfect. Video replays in the box, for contentious decisions, then for everything under the sun, thin edge of the wedge. The flow of the game is more important to me, than every foul, contentious moment being replayed and debated and then a decision made.
Those who call for video replays should be careful what they wish for, lest it take away the game they love and turn it into something they can't stand/watch...

It'll take 15/30secs for a ref to consult a fella/panel in a box who have access to video, make a decision and give him an answer.
How many contentious decisions(ball over goal line or pen decisions) do you get in a game..2, 3, 4? I dont mind waiting an extra 1-3mins a game if it means that decisions are called correctly and games end with a fair result
