Trees Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Don't think there's any rule that allows that TBH - probably because there's not similar facilities in non-TV meetings. Yeah but perhaps the rules should be different for televised meetings, does the ref not have a screen in the box when SKY are in town? Whatever it just goes to show just how wrong referees can be and why they should have ermmmmm what should we call them, akin to football and their linesmen ............. bendsmen ......

Haha yep - never understood really why there can't be maybe a trainee official on the bends. And I think they have access to a monitor in TV meetings but he'd obviously made his mind up before they showed the replay anyway - i guess. What I was getting at tho' was there'd be no monitor (or anyone filming probably) at non-TV meetings,so you couldn't really have one rule for TV and another for non-TV matches.

Trees Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 But why not use the technology if available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 Really enjoyed this meeting. Both teams rode well to keep it close. Well done to King's Lynn who always seem to dig deep in last heats. Wouldnt be surprised to see Kings Lynn win the title this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
