Goal-line technology set to be tested in the Premier League Goal-line technology could be coming to the Premier League next season, with Hawk-Eye hoping to test its system during top-level matches for the first time
But with football's lawmakers yet to allow referees to consult high-tech aids, the trials and results will remain secret. Hawk-Eye founder Paul Hawkins told The Associated Press that he is concerned that if his system contradicted a ruling on a disputed goal and the results were made public, the matchday officials would be undermined. The sport moved closer to adopting goal-line technology earlier this month after the International Football Association Board approved another year of testing and FIFA president Sepp Blatter declared that it "helps referees."
