If it happened the same way as Rugby or cricket giving ref control then fine. For instance the match official in Rugby and cricket request the coverage on the screen, watch and then make decision, they don't have stills showing the incident on the screen as the match official appeoaches unlike football and VAR do.
We're still light years behind other sports in how they use the video review system.
You've never seen a cricket review then.
"Run it through...roll it forward...reverse a frame...is the bat grounded...is the toenail behind the line...is there a heel behind the line...is there a better angle...what other angles have you got?..." All in super slow mo. No complaints whatsoever from anyone about the time taken.
30 second delay during a season defining review with implications at both ends of the table = Time to start chanting, booing and whistling......
Why should they get credit for doing their paid job correctly? Surely it's what they should be doing consistently week in week out.
Why should players be worshipped for scoring penalties, winning tackles, saving shots, clearing the ball off the line etc, when they're only doing their job correctly?
Why should managers be worshipped for making subs, and changing tactics, and managing games, when they're only doing their job correctly?
Why should teams have parades after winning trophies, when they're only doing the job they're expected to do?
Why should the health service be praised for saving someone's life, when they're only doing the job they do week in week out?
