Is it even possible to remove subjectivity from the officiating? Words like ‘negligible’, ‘deliberate’ and ‘dangerous’ currently do a lot of the heavy lifting in the laws of the game, all of which are quantifiable and open to interpretation.

How could realistic technology, either now or in the future, help the officials with the black/white yes/no in/out decisions?

Constructive discussion only please.

    Fouls that didn’t directly interfere with a goal shouldn’t directly lead to a chance on goal AND should punish defensive sloppiness. For instance one on one with keeper, keeper takes out striker that’s in on goal, moving towards goal(not around the keeper) should be straight red and penalty. Handballs akin to Suarez against Ghana straight red penalty

    Handball’s on crosses should be indirect free kicks and yellows for the defenders Fouls not on shots should be yellows and indirect free kicks from spot of foul

    Lastly, retrospective yellow cards for simulation.

    That’s how you fix this over abundance of crap pens and diving.
