The only difference I have heard to expect are less flags. A good thing in some cases and of course bad in others. This was of course speculation based on the assumption that the refs would be more focused on learning other aspects of the job and not being able to concentrate on penalties. Hopefully, the game will be determined by less wistle blows and not more.
