Luck is a big part of the appeal of soccer. As with most sports, you usually start rooting for the team that is popular in your area. With a significant reduction of this luck-component, strong teams would dominate the leagues which would in turn reduce the appeal for supporters of smaller clubs. Under the current rules, it's not unusual for a smaller team to win against a much stronger opponent from time to time. To tilt the probability towards the favorite reduces the appeal for supporters of the underdog. It seems that people who grew up with high scoring games, exact time-taking and video referees often times feel the urge to "fix" the perceived flaws of soccer. I don't want to be snotty, but a lot of people love the game in it's current form. If you don't get what's fun about a good game that ends in a 1:0 that's fine, but please don't ruin it for the rest of us.
