Paul Hawkins has a contract to develop his Hawk-Eye thingamajiggy for future use in the Premiership. The system does not - repeat not - involve Roy Keane holding a bird’s beak over his eyeball (if anyone can explain that image, please do.) It’s more of a cameras and computers approach to ball tracking. He’s working with Reading’s academy side this season, presumably using the youngsters as test cases in an attempt to fine tune the system.

Hawkins told BBC Five Live "We have a contract with the Premier League to develop a system purely to resolve the dispute whether the ball crossed the line, purely for the referee and not for television. The process is to be evaluated by the Premier League and then by FIFA, if we jump those hurdles then the end aim is to have it installed in all Premier League grounds hopefully."
