Technology doesn't exist to benefit the game at the moment

Yes, and they would merely show us the facts.

 

Uriah Rennie says they don't discuss individual players who dive as it would mean they go into a match with preconceived ideas

 

Another interesting snippet from Poll :

He says that phone ins are filled with people demanding they watch A-List players and don't want them suspended, watching the game from the stands. " We don't pay good money to watch reserves " and so Poll goes on to say they have to ' balance ' that out and manage games credibly.

Seems to me that Poll might not caution someone like Rooney where he would caution someone like, say, Kilbane.

 

Poll again - he says that only one player ( Baros ) has been booked more than once for diving. It's a perception that some players dive persistently and that it's a perception because some players might go over easier than others or draw contact easier.

 

Beautiful stuff, Graham. He seems very concerned about his image and how fans and players look at him, saying that he could caution every player that harasses him or is guilty of dissent but then people would think he's a ****.
