Television Replays And Football Matches

EDM number 330 in 2010-12, proposed by Angus MacNeil on 28/06/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Broadcasting and Sports.

That this House notes that the failure of the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) to introduce the use of modern technologies, including television replays as the best set of eyes available to help inform decisions of officials on the football pitch, denies referees of the best possible means of doing their job and leads to demonstrably unjust decisions and outcomes of matches and leaves the referee the least informed person regarding what is happening on the football pitch; and calls on FIFA to permit the use of modern technology on the football field immediately.

This motion has been signed by a total of 20 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
