England and Leicester flyhalf Toby Flood has been cleared by
an RFU disciplinary panel of making an alleged dangerous tip
tackle on Worcester's Andy Goode in an English Premiership
match.
"Whilst we found that the elements of a dangerous tackle were
made out, after very careful analysis we could not be
satisfied, to that standard required, that the dynamics of
the incident had not been caused, or contributed to,
significantly by the involvement of other players from both
teams," disciplinary panel chairman Jeremy Summers said in a
statement.
Flood had been cited following Leicester's 19-14 victory on
Friday.
