Get rid of all the subjective stuff.

If the ref misses it, too bad,...the ref can then be judged on their performance after the game, rather than having an out being able to use the Wenger "I didn't see it" excuse. It puts the onus back onto the referee.

Severe incidents can incur retrospective bans.

Just don't stop the game so often and for so long for things that might constitute an infringement.
Totally agree. For matters of fact, like goal line technology, the tech can be improved and improved and it works well.

For subjective issues like is it a red, is it worth a penalty, you can watch it 100 times and have two referees still disagree so there is absolutely no point delaying or sucking the soul out of the game. Nothing in the years it has existed has altered my view one bit. It was a shit idea, it's been shit in practice.
In a world full of adversity, we must still dare to dream.
