Hey,

Following up yesterday's great debate is the one I've been waiting to write for a long time, and the one I think may be the best debate yet and a must-read for any football fan! Should video technology be introduced into football? Would doing so take away from the 'magic' that makes the game so great? And would it help or hinder the referees? Have your say in the Great Debate!

Farooq, after the Henry handball yesterday, I have decided that replay must be implemented in the beautiful game somehow. Please tell me your reaction.

Farooq, are you annoyed that Arsenal's ground is called Emirates and not Highbury anymore?

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/267535-naming-rights-theyre-just-wrong

This explains my disgust at the overlap of football and big business.

Enjoy it.

Hey Farooq, in what I hope to be a new feature to the site, I've written a comprehensive biography of France Legend Michel Platini, it's long so I can understand if you don't have the time to look at it but otherwise I'd really appreciate your opinion on it.
