against Hawkeye? I mean, they are in the business of “goal line technology.”

To be fair, I haven’t looked at the tiebreakers between Bournemouth and Villa so it may not even be applicable.

However, if they would have stayed up, I would be filing suit to have more cash for the drop.

they had 37 other games. Not crying for them. They probably truly belonged in League One all this time anyway

They have no case.

The goal/no goal decision is ultimately up to the referee as the neutral arbiter of the match. It's well-established precedent that all on-field decisions of the referee are final unless there is a specific appeal process in the EPL bylaws (for example, a red card may be appealed to a review board). To the best of my knowledge, there is no appeal process in place for a misapplied VAR or goal line technology event.

I suppose it's possible Bournemouth could appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, but CAS would likely refuse to hear the case based on the reasoning above.
