The French a cheat and the craziness of video replays

Football has reached a new nadir. The bottom of a pretty deep barrel Thierry Henry is being vilified for cheating rightly so. Yet the people that run football persist in the idea the football should be the same on the park as it is in the stadium. The problem with that theory is that a piece of cheating by a bloke on a Sunday morning does not effect the nation. The numbers being bandied round for loss of GDP for the Irish economy are as big as one billion euro. 

Football should use video replays because the technology is good it provides fairness and equality. On a personal note it would stop the interminable talk radio conversations regarding dodgy refereeing decisions. Football can not rely on its players for honesty so using video replays is a natural progression.
