Howard Webb, the head of the EPL judiciary, said that in the future, the arbitrators will publicly explain their decisions.
- We are doing our best to be as transparent as possible. There are some parameters that are firmly linked to FIFA, but we are going to push our initiatives.
We will do our best to lift the curtain. We are going to soon introduce some post-match "nuances" that were not there before. If we can then add "these nuances" during the match, we will do so.
You will see that we can interact with the stadium audience after the match and even during the match. That's my intention, and I hope you will see some progress in the coming weeks.
Will it be a system like in rugby and cricket, where referees address the stadium audience through a microphone? It is possible. It has been working there for some time.
Since my appointment, I have been very impressed with the quality of interaction within the referee team," said Howard Webb.
