[QUOTE="An Tarbh, post: 273701"] I'm beginning to have some serious doubts about Hawkeye, firstly there were some dodgy looking calls at Wimbledon which were either given out when they looked to be clearly in or vice versa and it's relevant to this given it's the same technology, the first Bell lbw shout this morning looked absolutely plum yet Hawkeye says it's going over so Hussain and Atherton take it as gospel, like the smug gimps they are. If Hawkeye is only 95% accurate than how can they use the predictive element when the referrals are rolled out in October. I know it's easy to say that umpires make mistakes but the point with using technology is that it should be 100% like hotspot if it's going to be used by the Third Umpire. If the technology is only as accurate as the umpires generally are then there's no point in using it. [/QUOTE]
