Quote: Fully "He did knock it out but in the process of effecting the tackle - it wasn't a deliberate play at the ball. From what I recall, Hadley may have tried offloading at the time and Shenton's come in from the side and walloped it in the opposite direction when wrapping his arm around. This is where "interpretation" comes in - and the ref, to be fair, was blocked in his view too of that.
I'll have to watch back again on that incident but being a Cas fan, it's harsh to call it a knock-on but without a deliberate play then that's what it is.'"
If I'm thinking of the right incident, Hadley did indeed intend offloading backwards, Shentons hand intentionally or not did play the ball but it went backwards, the knock on came from I think Eden, as he picked up the ball he pushed it forward a tad.
