The team returned to Birmingham with their second trophy of 2017 for a gala welcome organised by the Town Hall. www.biquge.info The second cheer in a year, for a team that was struggling in the Championship ten months ago, Li Haolong brought two titles to the 20-year nobility without a championship after coming to power, even if their content is not so high, but the fans are content, and they believe that there will definitely be more championships in the future, look at the club's investment, who dares to say that there is no confidence?

Li Haolong's popularity is unprecedentedly high, this 23-year-old young man has even become the savior in the hearts of Villa fans, generosity, sharpness, youth, and fearlessness are synonymous with him, and the crowd that greeted him even erupted in the voice calling his name, but unfortunately he couldn't hear it, because at the moment Li Haolong is still staying in London, do you think he missed the celebration in order to invite beautiful women to dinner? Then you are underestimating him, Li Haolong is not a person with a sperm brain, he stayed in London to attend the FA's pre-season meeting, and by the way, he received the second phase of the UEFA professional coach qualification training course. After receiving the course arrangement, Li Haolong, head coach Petrov and general manager Lamb attended a joint meeting between the FA and the Premier League company, and the main topics of the meeting were to discuss the Hawkeye system, flying cat technology and refereeing issues.

In the 2013-2014 season, the Premier League introduced goal-line technology, installing the Hawkeye system at each Premier League team's home stadium for a hefty £250,000 set, which is based on the triangulation principle and uses visual images and time data provided by high-speed cameras set up in different areas of the pitch, which requires six cameras around the pitch. For most of the systems of this technology, the final result is determined by the referee based on the data and announced by the staff. Skeptics generally agree that the technology slows down the game and is not 100% accurate, and critics also point out that the technology can damage the human factor in the game, thus reducing the fun of arguing over mistakes, and that the installation is extremely expensive, especially for small or poor football associations, and the deep-pocketed Premier League certainly won't skimp on the money and take the lead in promoting the entire league in the big five leagues.

Hawkeye technology has been used in the Premier League for three seasons, the technology has been relatively mature, now the discussion is whether it can be completely canceled manual judgment, all by the system automatic judgment, to speed up the process of the game, there are still many clubs skeptical, that the technology can guarantee a 100% success rate, because this technology also has a dead end, the ball must be exposed at least 25% to be effective, sometimes blocked by a lot of legs will also have mistakes, the accuracy rate can only reach 95%, There are also doubts about the amount of money required to achieve higher accuracy in the technology, and the introduction to the Championship is a distant idea. The purpose of this meeting is not to decide, it is only in the stage of soliciting opinions and discussions, and the technical staff of Eagle Eye System Innovation Co., Ltd. also attended and listened to everyone's opinions.

Another issue was proposed by British domestic broadcasters Sky Sports and BT (British Telecom Group), who wanted to promote the Flying Cat broadcast technology as soon as possible--- that is, cameras that hang in the air of the stadium and are towed by cables to capture the situation on the field in 360 degrees, this technology was first used in the United States in 1984, and has also been used in the World Cup and Champions League before, but it is still new in the Premier League, and it was not used for the first time until January 12 this year, when Manchester United and Liverpool were in the red. Flying Cat technology allows people to get closer to the game and is mainly used in set-pieces, such as free kicks, corners or penalties, to provide the most complete view directly over the pitch.

When it comes to Premier League broadcasting rights, the £8 billion broadcast contract includes £5.1 billion for Sky Sports and BT respectively in China, and £3 billion for overseas broadcast rights. This is also due to China's contribution, with Suning Sports winning the bid for exclusive media rights (live plus on-demand) in Chinese mainland and Macau for the 2019-2022 season last year for a total price of US$721 million. The astronomical figure of 8 billion pounds is indeed staggering, and the Premier League's high broadcast fee is enough to dwarf that of rivals La Liga, whose domestic broadcast fee is only 2.65 billion euros (about 19.5 billion yuan) in the next three years, and even the other four major leagues combined cannot exceed this figure.

At the official press conference of the new Premier League held yesterday, the three giants, including Premier League CEO Anthony Fry, FA President Clarke and British Players Union President Gordon Taylor, repeated the same old tune, continuing to emphasize the absolute authority of referees, clearly stipulating that players and coaches must put an end to besieging referees and bombarding and blaming referees in the media. Confronting the referee and using offensive or insulting language or gestures against them can result in a red card. The trio are also demanding that their players set a positive profile and lead by example in the Premier League. At the meeting, the head coaches, player representatives and referees of each team were also convened to discuss and solve some problems and phenomena in the league last season to ensure that the league can be better carried out in the new season. The meeting also highlighted the zero-tolerance penalty for tackles with both feet off the ground, whether they touch the ball or not, and the referee will award penalties for pulling the shirt in the box and blocking the movement of attacking and defending players when taking set-pieces, which will be stricter than in previous years.

The Premier League Professional Match Refereeing Organization (PGMO) is a very controversial body, and it is now even a company, funded by the Premier League, the Football League and the FA, and the referees are divided into two tiers: elite and national, the elite level blows the Premier League, League Cup and FA Cup, and the national level blows the football league games and the amateur league, and the income of the two referees varies greatly. The average base salary of Premier League referees is 4 to 60,000 pounds per year, and they get more than 1,000 game allowances for every blow, plus carriage and horse fees, and the highest income can get more than 100,000 pounds per year, which is higher than Prime Minister Cameron's annual salary, but the income of national referees is only 1/10 of the average income of elite peers, and elite referees are compressed to less than 20 people by Riley, the head of the Premier League professional game refereeing agency, which is very hot.
