Should video technology usage be increased for major football matches?

No sooner had two major football organisations been dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century, FIFA and the Football Association (FA), with goal-line technology, than we started getting cries to expand said technology to other adjudication within the game, offside for example.

That of course led to calls from died in the wool traditionalists that `human error` is part and parcel of football and should be left alone and technology should only be applied to goal decisions. More on that later for football fans in general and Spurs/Man City fans in particular.

There is a moral issue here as much as there is a fiscal one.
