Monkeh Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Also remember the trouble Lavin got in for booting the ball in the crowd at Reading? Did he get a prison sentence for that it just a conviction? I can't remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 What makes this situation even better is the tweet that the ballboy posted a couple of hours before the game - Charlie Morgan™ @CHARLIEM0RGANThe king of all ball boys is back making his final appearance #needed #for #timewastingHaha, he's deleted it and a few others now.

B1ackbird Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 These new ball boys, they get the ball and keep it the ****ers!! surely it's his job to give the ball to the team, unless your John Bailey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Some people should get off their high horse. The ball 'boy' (he's 17) was completely in the wrong and Hazard (only a few years older) kicked the ball. A deserved red card but no more and the cheating, spotty teen deserves all the shit he gets.

Just been watching it repeatedly on YouTube and he did nothing of the kind. He kicked the kid in the ribs quite deliberately. 3 match suspension, 50K fine and 50 hours community punishment plus whatever Chelsea do, which will probably be nothing.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I suspect that most if not all of the posts in support of the cowardly act are from people with no children or grand children, one day i'm sure you will see it differently.

Jeeees, talk about OTT. If my 17 year old son wrote on twitter saying he was going to time waste, then lay on the ball like a cheating idiot then I'd have no problem with a chap of similar age trying to get the ball back.

Keepers Ball Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 The pundits are discussing it now and they're right, the lad was obviously doing something he shouldn't have been doing like lying on the ball but it's a grown man kicking a young lad! If the young lad was your son would you say "get up".. I doubt it, as any father would do you'd be thinking "why the hell has a professional footballer kicked my son!". The lad was obviously easily misled but a grown man should know not to kick a lad regardless of if his excuse is he wanted to kick the ball.No i wouldn't be happy.But i certainly wouldn't over-react demanding stiffer punishment which is what you seem to imply. Im guessing you are talking Police involvement? Id wager Hazards boot didn't even touch the kids ribs And if it was my lad id have given him a bollocking for his embarrassing behaviour.

OK, if this was let us just say a school teacher trying to lets say take a ball off of a pupil and lets say that pupil 'fell' to the ground onto that ball and the teacher kicked him, would you still be defending the school teacher?. or same scenario with one of AG's stewards?.

Completely different scenario. The 17 year old is a complete and utter tool by the looks of his twitter, he boasted about deliberate time wasting beforehand and made himself look like a right idiot by falling on the ball and refusing to give it back like a pathetic spoilt little child. Hazard tried to get the ball back, in not a good way and deserved to get red carded. However, the 17 year old brought it all on himself and maybe people who are talking about spoilt footballers doing what they want should look at it from another angle and wonder why on earth the ballboy acted the way he did. Reflects very badly on Swansea and really badly on Chelsea, so great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adult strikes out at minor with little provocation. How can you compare a football match incident between a 22 year old and a 17 year old to a teacher/pupil situation? Deary me. Night all, I will look forward to news of no charges tomorrow so my charity will be that bit richer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
