Goal line technology needs to be introduced in the lower leagues, I have no idea why it is only used in the top division
Not for longPlenty of money slushing around in FIFA
Cost will be the major issue. It'll only be introduced once the Football League or FA pay for it.
the fact some lower league stadiums are too small to accommodate bits?
Remember watching the sky documentary on Bournemouth on the build up to this season & they had to take seats out and have a fair bit of work done to get all the stuff required in.
What frickin system are they using? Most just use the ball, the goal frame and a watch for the ref plus some DSP on a server somewhere.

I'm sure it some odd thing that requires something high in the gods in each 4 corners of the ground.
Might be mistaken but surprised me too.
You sure that's not for offside tech or the ProZone stuff? Would make sense for them. Who knows.
Did anyone see the brief interview with the Sheff Utd keeper on the pitch after the game? Was asked about the ball over the line incident, his response and body language told you all you need to know. Something along the lines of 'No, no, ball was never over the line so a great decision by the referee' before he half smirks and the camera cuts to Billy Sharp.
Yeah he clearly knew it was over. As did our players who wheeled off in celebrationIt wasn't just a half smirk, he said sarcastically it was a great decision by the linesman and then moved his eyebrows up and down with a big grin on his face.

Wasn't there a goal at home to sheff U about 4 years ago which caused a massive debate? The decision went on favour of Sheff but I can't remember which way round it was might have been a goal for them from a corner didn't appear to cross but was given? Just a memory randomly popped into my head.
Everyone calls for goal-line technology when they score a disallowed goal but no-one calls for it when they concede a disallowed goal. That said, the rules should be the same for all divisions in the league.
