I say yes!!!!

With the amount of TV coverage that football gets worldwide, the FA and FIFA should be exploiting this and using video evidence to clamp down on players' misconduct whether on the ball or not.

This will also take the pressure off referees and ensure that no player can get away with any misconduct of any sort.

What do you think?

It would be nice to see professional footballers behaving like the Rugby Union guys, when the ref in RU makes a decision all the players abide by it and show the ref the utmost respect, it really is played very profesionally, apart from the odd rabbit punch

Aye, because this reflects through to grass roots football.

Young players in junior teams see their idols back chatting the referees, fighting and such, then the FA does the minimum to punish. The youth players think that it is okay to do....even down to under 9's level! This makes things a lot harder for newbie referees to control and is one of the reasons why there is a big cry out for referees at grass root level.
