Over the next few days I will be publishing the work I have produced on the topic. I assessed the success of technolgy to resolve controversy in other sports such as cricket and tennis and talked about their introduction into football. My research included the study of news articles, interviews, books, newspaper articles, focus groups, questionnaires and posting on message boards. Below is part of what the study concluded:
"Having produced a detailed study into technology to resolve controversy, I have outlined a number of conclusions. The equipment that is currently used in cricket and tennis has been successful although the introduction of ‘hawk eye” into tennis has demonstrated that this is not enough. However what already exists, particularly in cricket has not only improved the fairness of the game but the satisfaction of the audience.

When it comes to football a clear trend has been established. Keith Hacknett (2005), the former referee stated that “There is no point in introducing technology without understanding the wider issues” Having identified these wider issues assessing the opinions of the audience through questionnaires, message boards and focus groups it has become clear that technology in football seems imminent."
