I'm struggling with that.
If it had been pulled back, I'd be feeling pretty hard done by, not for the first time this season.
I know its printed there in b/w in various online write ups, bjb's push was missed by the ref, but watching the replay it just doesn't bare scrutiny.
Its a ball in the air every man for himself, both he and Clarkson ran in to each other, both of them had eyes on the ball at all times, it was a minor collision challenging for the ball, there was no push, it just came up for bjb end of.
