Stopping a game mid flow to check video fotage could be used as an advantage for a defending team though for example the ball's cleared off the line at one end and the team break forward in a 4 on 2 situation suddenly the captain of the now defending team calls for the video to prove the ball did or didn't cross the line at the other end thus stopping a goal scoring opportunity.
Like Rugby play only stops at an appropriate time.

I heard once that they maybe bringing a linesman in near the goal line to decide for decisions about if the ball went over the line. However, these arent really the big factor as they happen on rare occasions.
I beleive having a 3rd referee linked to a screen would be good, although it wouldnt stop diving as they cannot stop a game, and go "Lets just see if he divided". Maybe if the referee has given a free kick, then a 3rd ref maybe able to add that the player dived.
Although nowadays its hard to see what a dive is and what a foul is. There doesnt have to be contact for it to be a foul as a player may jump over a trailing leg to break away, but fall in the process....... Should the player have just kept his legs in and risked an injury, or tried jumping over the tackle. Would jumping over the tackle class as diving.
Football is the game it is, and rules change as time goes by. Hopefully it doesnt get spoilt by too much technology.
Jambo they use extra officials on the touch line in the Europa league to help with decisions in and around the penalty area, again though they are no good either in our qualifiying game at Goodison we had a player brought down inside the box right in front of the extra official it was a clear pen and he gave nothing, I think the officials should be ex players or have much better training or be taught to understand the game better the thing is most of the Ref's have never played the game, I played at various levels for 20 odd years so understand how the game flows and what happens unfortunately the Ref's don't.
Come on guy's your expecting fair play of a governing body that let Henry hand ball a goal & knock ireland out of the competion with no reprocusion's? & he admited it. Compare that to Rugby where you can get sinbind for a trip, & read up what happened with blood gate.
