The Premier League has voted to introduce goal-line technology from the 2013-14 season.
British-based Hawk-Eye has been awarded the contract to provide the system.
Hawk-Eye uses seven cameras per goal to detect the ball and claims its system is "millimetre accurate, ensuring no broadcast replays could disprove the decision".
The Football Association will install a system at Wembley Stadium in time for the August's Community Shield.
Top-flight clubs voted to adopt the system during a meeting of the 20 Premier League chairmen on Thursday.
 
It won't be a problem at the Brit for one half per match. If it were portable, be even better.

Although we could use a 'Hawkeye' to see our midfield.

'We seek them here, we seek seek them there,
We seek our midfield everywhere!!!

By the way, there is a new first sentence in The Tale of Two Cities;

It was the worst of times and the worst of times...

I hope to God that Peter Coates was awake when he cast his vote.

We're the lowest scorers in the football league, let's donate ours to a more attack minded club.
 
I'm glad Hawk eye have got it considering FIFA used a non british company! I think its good for football as well.
