The FA are quick to release a statement following Clint Hill's 'ghost goal' in this afternoon's Premier League game at the Reebok.

The Football Association have repeated their "strong desire" to see goal-line technology introduced to the game sooner rather than later.

The statement comes after Queens Park Rangers defender Clint Hill saw a clear goal not given in today's Premier League game at Bolton Wanderers.

The FA were quick to release a statement, which read: "Following last week's meeting of IFAB (International Football Association Board), the FA would like to reiterate our strong desire to see goal-line technology introduced as soon as possible.

"The FA has been a leading proponent of goal-line technology for many years.

"We will continue to press for its introduction once further independent testing is complete later this year, so that anyone wishing to introduce the technology is able to do so at the earliest possible opportunity."

IFAB have approved goal-line technology in principle and will go ahead with final tests on two systems.

Sepp Blatter has also expressed his desire to see technology, citing Frank Lampard's non-goal at the 2010 World Cup.
