Re: Ballotelli appeal?
In my opinion, Balo was stupid and petulant getting involved in anything slightly dodgy when he was already on a yellow. Does the guy want to establish himself as a bad ass before establishing himself as a world class player? Seems that way. 2 prem goals and he didn't seem that arsed.
That being said, the ref giving him a straight red has probably done us a favour. It wasn't a straight red and so can be overturned at appeal. It was probably a booking at most, which if given would mean it couldn't be overturned, but he would still be banned for Wednesday. So we should have him available.
Looks a fantastic player, why he is trying to earn a reputation as a knobhead already is beyond me. Enjoy your first goals in the EPL Mario ffs!

Re: Ballotelli appeal?
Even if the red is rescinded, which i doubt, he will still end up with a yellow - and as he had already been booked, he will get a one game ban.
The boy lives right on the edge. It's probably what will make him so good. However, he does need to learn and learn fast.

Re: Ballotelli appeal?
Didn't he say he doesn't celebrate scoring because it is his job and he's just doing what he is paid for. He expects to score.
Refreshing in a way, weird in others.
Seems like a bit of a laugh off the pitch by all accounts - nothing wrong with being serious on it?
He did nothing wrong today IMO. Didn't complain any more than Bellers used to do, and we all found that endearing, right?

Re: Ballotelli appeal?
Not only was it not a sending off but it was a pen IMO, we should appeal this and not just for the rags game but because he should never be banned for 3 games for being fouled!
Bobby manc would go with the Chelsea line up against the rags anywho.
well played today blues

I was there at the game, They were tangling together at first and to me it looked like he did a little stamp.
