Lightning does strike twice

This weekend we have witnessed 2 very bad calls for penalties the first at Old Trafford and then at Wigan.
There has been call for a video technology to be introduced to the game for years.
With so much riding on results these days its high time we did introduce the "instant video replay system".
Its not a ref but it gives every one a chance to see what really happened.
I can hear all the wingers al ready saying "oh well whats going happen to the real ref and it'll ruin the flow of the game?"
Well in actual fact already used in the States the video replay dosnt ruin the flow and give a fairer result on a game which is worth alot not just the points but the revenue, millions , if you dont believe me ask West Ham how much its worth, (doh)
If you are working your socks off and playing and the ref call a penalty when a clearly isn't it losses all faith you have for Refs.
Rob Styles should have been out of the job a long time ago as it has been proved that over the space of a year he made 4 very bad calls and all within spitting distance of view.
it made me laugh when the Scottish SPL refs where sponsored by Specsaver at one time I don't know if they still are.
Refs like Styles ruin the reputation of the referee and lets face it its a thankless job any way and the few good refs that there are are all tarred with the same brush because of one numpty like Styles.
Bring the video replay in now.
