FIFA president Sepp Blatter has announced plans to have three referees on the pitch at the Confederations Cup in South Africa in June 2009.The additional referees will be assigned to each penalty area and indications are that they will be “in the penalty area.”According to Blatter, “The players will feel more observed in the penalty area. From a psychological point of view it will be an interesting test.”It is unclear whether the penalty area referees will carry whistles or not and how two referees will handle the game in each penalty area.

It is also unclear if the additional referees’ jurisdiction ends in the box.Goal-line and video technology was rejected by Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini because it could “harm the authority of the referee.”With three referees on the pitch, isn’t the referees authority undermined then?This is another half-baked idea. FIFA will trial it at the Confederations Cup and then throw it out the window. Perhaps the idea is just to be seen to be doing something about controversial decisions and not necessarily to find a lasting solution.This proposal will see the same fate as the golden goal and silver goal rule.In my view, only a second referee is needed. This referee should be assisted by technology to make judgements on the spot and cannot rely on video replays.The second referee will recommend to the referee to award a goal, a penalty or whatever the case may be and the referee will do so, at his own discretion.The second referee will be invisible to the public and the players and will therefore be an optional component of the game. This will ensure that a World Cup final and a school Cup final can be played using the same rules, although the World Cup final will use a second referee and video technology while the latter will not.Since the second referee is not part of the game, more cameras and referees can be added without changing the fundamental laws of the game.However, if FIFA have their way, we would soon be struggling to find at least five officials for a casual game in a social league.What do you think? Are you in favour of more referees on the pitch or video-assisted referees off the pitch?.
