    Fifa evades technology questions

    Fifa has refused to comment on mistakes made by officials in Sunday's World Cup last-16 ties, or the potential future use of goal-line technology.


    From http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...10/8766423.stm

    How can they possibly deny that it needs to be looked at now that its happened in a world cup this isnt just two set of club supporters these are countries that have been affected by their arrogance lets hope once blatter leave his position as president that the new guy will at least look at the idea but i wouldnt bet on iy.

    Fifa should take a good long look at themselves. They are useless.

    It works in Ice Hockey and other sports so why can't Football just push forward into the new technology-era!

    Football is a multi billion dollar industry,Decisions like those on sunday just should not happen in this era, tennis etc use it,why not football?Simply because blatter dont want it. He's only one man at fifa,and could easily be out-voted on the issue if the rest of the board had the b0l0x to vote against him.

    I completely agree. Fifa must consider the use of some technology to assist the officials when they have a doubt.

    Was there not talk of some kind of bionic football that would trigger sensors behind the goal-line?

    Blatter has apologised to both The English F.a and the Mexican F.a - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...10/8771294.stm
