I do think first year with video refs will be hilarious at times, as I'm sure you'll have a lot of cases when players will be protesting and crowding the ref even AFTER video replays.

That happened a while ago in the Feyenoord-PSV game. Ref got a signal from hawkeye that the ball crossed the line, but PSV players were still crowding him like crazy :laugh:

Yep, even with video replays0 and (in theory) perfect reffing, the football culture is in such a bad place you'd still have players acting like that.

At some point though, with both video replays and retroactive bans for diving/cheating, surely the culture will take a turn for the better.
Maybe not straight away, but longterm, hopefully...
