WAS there a penalty? WAS the offense really an expulsion?

The type of questions tend to pile up after any superligarunde, and this round was no exception.

Here came the Horsens head coach Bo Henriksen and his Randers-colleague Thomas Thomasberg in the choir, which calls for videohjælp to the referees in the premier League.

The so-called WAS system, which had it’s international ’breakthrough’ at the WORLD cup finals last year, has now found a foothold in the Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga, the Dutch Eredivisie and the English FA Cup, before the next season is taken in use in the Premier League.

And it MAY be in place in the premier League in the season 2020/21, says director in the organization of division, Claus Thomsen.

When he pulls a little on it, it is not least about the economics behind a project, there is not just how to just to introduce the logistical and technological.

You are currently in an initial phase, which may result in a development project, ” explains Claus Thomsen, who expects it will take 12-18 months to develop a finished set up.

– the Clubs have discussed it and are positive about it, but we are discussing it in the bottom: What will it take to realize it?

– the Price varies all the time, but it’s probably not much cheaper than the two million euros (around 15 million kroner, ed.), as the swiss currently planning to use.

– And the amount is enough over the top. It does, in any event, it is something you want to consider heavily, as he puts it.

For him, there is no doubt that the large expenditure in one way or another to be shared between the clubs, which already pay for the dommeraktivitet, and DBU, which stands for training.

– It MUST be a joint project, he says, and explains what must at least be in the mentioned period of time, before the WAS can be rolled into the Danish club football.

– It is mainly about the training of judges but also on the implementation of the new technology. And then you have to retrieve the authorization from the IFAB (International Football Association Board).

– Crew to a fight will consist of at least three persons, namely a WERE-judge, one WAS a judge-assistant and a technician.

– Six wagons must be equipped if we are to be able to cover one round with six simultaneous matches (in the 20/21 season consists of the League of 12 teams, ed.), and so should probably also have a reservebil ready in case of problems, think Claus Thomsen, which did not want to bid on, on a Danish VAR-system becomes a reality.

– But of course it is important. The game is faster today, and the crowd expects it. The question is then whether the clubs feel that there are important things that one can use such an amount.

FCN coach Kasper Hjulmand, who has previously called for WAS, for example, rather have to spend money on better tracks in the best series.

– I’m pissetræt that even a decisive ruling does not go our way. In our first match against Brøndby should also have had a red card, and we were cheated out of a penalty. The expulsion to Marxen is of course a fejlkendelse, and the longer it is not, said Thomas Thomasberg for the Extra Leaf after Sunday’s match in Brøndby, denmark, which scored a critical on a controversial penalty kick.

Monday also calls for Bo Henriksen, Sunday felt like the victim of a wrong expulsion, something videohjælp.

(video assistant referee, red.) would be good for the judges. It would be good for all. The fight against the OB was on the seesaw, and so it is a pity that a wrong judge can change it all. So we must have it for everyone’s sake. Not least for the judges, says the Horsens coach to Ritzau.
