Re: Video Review Needs to Happen Now

Folks, I'm suddenly reminded of something.

When was the first Red Card or Yellow Card issued for actions taken on the field?



Anybody who says 2010, you're right for OFFICIAL events, and wrong otherwise. It was actually IRI 2004. That's right, 5 or so seasons of testing in an offseason... And eventually, it worked.


I think, if video review is going to become a reality (note: I'd rather it didn't), that it should be thoroughly tested. Each event to try it should try something different, or slightly different from other events, and post a detailed whitepaper on setup, rules of use, actual usage, and what calls were changed. As I noted earlier, I'd be willing (if cleared by the planning committee and other interested parties) to apply it at an offseason near me, how it works TBD (I've had some ideas in the past and kind of tossed them around a bit on CD).
