Goal line technology
Views: 548
Since all the major search engines have become worthless I am struggling to find a straight answer to this. Does anyone have an authoritative source as to whether League One games have goal line technology in place right now, in the year of our Lord 2026? My instinct is that they do NOT.

It does not. Written 21 April 2026
Meanwhile, goal-line technology is set to continue its use in the Championship next season. There is also potential for its extension to League One, pending a vote on fully costed proposals scheduled for June.

Thank you for vindicating my decision to put this question to the ether in the hopes of getting something sensible back.

They had it - obviously when they were in the Prem/Champ. Apparently they only removed the cameras a few weeks ago!

As I said yesterday, I was probably in line with the 6 yard box and it clearly crossed the line. The lino, who was often well behind play in open play, was in line for the corner and obviously saw it well.
Also had a great view of the handball. He sliced the clearance into his hand which was in an āunnatural positionā ā¦. But is there some get out in the new laws which means itās not handball if you sort of deflect it on to your own hand? If notā¦

I agree. I think it crossed on both scrambles.

The āhandballā was one of those you absolutely appeal at the time but was definitely not a handball and would be fuming if went against us.

Bournemouth's opening goal today also looked about as far over the line as ours did, yet goal line technology gave it.
It is as if you cannot properly tell from one still photo, from a poor angle, that people are spreading over the internet, whether it truly crossed or not.

What was your view of it from the North? And by view, I guess I mean both actual physical view and any more philosophically based opinions that may arise.
You are dead right about the picture on the net - Iāve been saying the same. It was taken almost level (quite possibly actually level) with the rear of the net such that if you spin the angle round to level, Iām sure youād see the ball at least 90% over. But also the ball looks to still be a fraction off the keeperās leg, so if you allow another inch of travel Iām quite convinced it was a full-on goal. RobSBFC claims to have been level with it and heās usually pretty reliable in his interpretations.

Didn't think it was over, but looked straight at the lino, saw him flagging straight away, and lost my shit.

This is all that needs to be said. The doubt goes down in folklore, and adds a certain frisson to our relations with the other side of Hitchin

From my view, through a crowd of teenagers from the halfway line on the ET ... I didn't have a clue it was even close to being over till Sweenz wheeled away and the ref signalled goal.

From the south end of the ET I could clearly see the ref point to the centre circle and feel my soul leave my body. Similar to Villa away except I saw the net ripple on that one.

This is great, almost peak Boro how nobody else will allow us to enjoy our success without whining. And for it to be Luton who missed out... couldn't have scripted it
Clear goal FWIW

If there's no goal line technology then it's as over as the officials think it was...

Yes I think the fact it came off another body part let's you get away with it. The ref and Pidge had a small chat after about it and seemed from gestures made that the ref accepted it hit his arm but wasn't a penalty nonetheless.

I feel like the understanding of whether a handball was seeking to gain an unsporting advantage was a relatively straightforward human decision until TV replays decided they knew better and you had people who would fail GCSE philosophy deciding what 'truth' entails
