Im a ref defender here.....but that video ref call was horrible on two fronts.

1) the tackle was made
2) A Knights defender was impeded from tackling Starling.

Just like Marzhew to Gagai last week, you can argue that should be a tackle, but strictly speaking the ball carrying arm doesn’t touch the ground

Meanwhile dipshit weirdo Warren Smith completely fails to explain or understand the actual rules applicable and just does his usual vague but dramatic whinging

The coward ref just needed to call it held live. Once he goes to the bunker they’re not going to overturn it unless the ball carrying arm hits the ground.
