What's wrong/right with Lolcio?

Fiine I'll change it.

 

[Mastadon]

Look who it is.

Who let him back in?

 

[Zabojnik]

Di Marzio saying it should be considered a done deal. Time to let it go. Fuck it, we'll always have Pogba.

Well at least he loves Jesus. Would be pretty sweet if Balotelli would wear one saying "I love Satan" one day, will wait for him to do it against Brazil at the world cup.

This is isn't as far fetched as you think!

The next Patrick Vieira!

..as in, he'll fuck off somewhere else after one year.


And Di Marzio is on a roll lately!

Joe motherfuckin Cole

Thanks. No idea who that is!

I'm so happy they're allowing goal-line tech.

Next up: Offsides.

 

[K1LLER7]

So how's this goal line tech gonna work? Similar to hawk-eye in Tennis?

 

[bjaelke]

Next up: Offsides.

They just said they wouldn't even consider looking into it. Only goal line technology. Leave the rest for the referees.

 

[dc89]

"Horne says no chance of GLT spreading to other decisions in game. Also says could be introduced in PL half way through THIS coming season"

BBC's Dan Roan

Well, at least our Messi is coming home!

There are two companies who have tendered for the contract. One is Hawkeye, the other is a Dutch/German company who will use magnetic fields to determine if the ball crosses the line.

That RVP GIF is going to get a hammering over the next few weeks.

Good to see Hawkeye could be used then. Hopefully it doesn't cause long stoppages in games

 

[Kyoufu]

Despite what they say, I feel that it's inevitable. Not any time soon, but eventually we'll reach a point where bad offside decisions will be made often due to players being on a whole nother level.

Until then, let's have instant replays for penalty box decisions.

I was fooled by that too.

Arrested Development is killing me. Gob's chicken dance is the most retarded-ish and funny thing I've ever seen. :lol

 

[Freewheelin']

Great to see goal-line tech has been approved by those out of date John Terrys

 

[Phantast2k]

150-250k to install per stadium.
Both systems:

Goalref
GoalRef features a microchip in the ball and low magnetic waves around the goal. Any change in the field on or behind the goalline determines the scoring of a goal

Hawk-Eye
The Hawk-Eye system was first developed by Dr. Paul Hawkins in 1999. The Hawk-Eye system has since been improved by engineers at Roke Manor Research Limited and is an existing technology currently used in cricket, tennis and snooker. It is based on the principle of triangulation using the visual images and timing data provided by high-speed video cameras at different locations around the area of play. The system uses six, spread out, high speed cameras to triangulate and track the ball in flight. The software calculates the ball’s location for each frame by identifying the pixels that correspond to the ball through at least two cameras.

Goalref > Hawk-Eye
Why? Because German engineers are involved.

They'll also use both systems in the club world cup in Japan.

 

[LegoArmo]

I don't trust Hawk-Eye, it robs my favourite tennis players of points!

 

[Arnie]

As a short man it's great to have a short manager. Solidarity in shortness.

 

[Zabojnik]

Arrested Development is killing me. Gob's chicken dance is the most retarded-ish and funny thing I've ever seen. :lol

And yet you don't like Mad Men. What kind of man are you, sir?

 

[Az]

Just put small cameras in both goal posts and on top - looking down on the line. Simple and cheap. Don't mess with the ball.

 

[Fry]

And yet you don't like Mad Men. What kind of man are you, sir?

Nobody is pefect

I like you Zab. I didn't really feel AD, and I love Mad Men.

Breaking Bad's getting really good, really really good. On to episode four of season two.

Pipe down stumpy.

I've got to compensate for my short frame.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Thanks. No idea who that is!

It's only the English Messi. Pirlo and Messi on the same team, building up to something big there.

 

[Phantast2k]

Here's a vid of the both techs:

This is what they need to put into the balls for goalref:

:O

/edit
Oh snap, I also didn't really like AD that much and adore Mad Men :O

 

[Kyoufu]

Apparently we've signed Gael bigirimana from Coventry.

No idea who he is.
