Balotelli & City agree settlement!

[shadygiz]

He didn't miss any games for totting up of cards?

He was being fined for missing 11 games through the Liverpool and Arsenal red cards and his stamp on Parker

but thats against his unions rules, he had already been fined by the club for the cards

He missed a almost a third of the season due to his actions.

Surely a two week fine is acceptable?

and surely having the same basic rights as a murderer or rapist has is acceptable

He wasn't fined for missing games. There is no clause that allows a club to do that. He was find for conduct on the field. Dissent and recklessness I believe are the two areas the club can take action against.

You need to understand the situation better before commenting on it.

So a club can't take action against a player who is unavailable for almost a third of the season due to their own actions?

I think they can

The PFA think otherwise.

The PFA, which will be advising the 22-year-old and his representatives at the tribunal, claims City have breached established guidelines agreed by the union with the Football Association and the Premier League with the support of member clubs. The rules do not allow a club to fine a player for an accumulation of red and yellow cards, as has happened in Balotelli's case. Premier League guidelines only allow clubs to fine players for an accumulation of dissent and violent conduct charges and the PFA contests City's stance that Balotelli was in breach of contract last season.

Again, that is unfair on the club.

They pay near £20 million on a player, pay him £100k a week and he's unavailable for 11 games because of his own actions, and they can't fine him 2 weeks wages?

So most people you go to city with week in week out like mario and his performances?

I edited my last comment.
I go when I can. Be honest I went last time and dont remember talking about him. I remember the crowd supporting him when he came on and half the stadium that does sing, singing his name

No they cant

Well then that's unfair to the club

No its not, its rules in place. They can fine him when he is banned like for the parker stamp but you cant turn up 7 months later and say "oi you missed 11 matches give us some money back". Rules are there to protect people from doing things like this to the lower league guys who struggle a living

I addressed that point when you made it the first time

Yes but what about the dodgy club owners in lower leagues trying to screw over a guy who earns £300 a week and has a family to feed. Its there for the little people but its has to encompass everyone

Two years with nothing to show for it, the novelty has worn off, its taken until the 11th hour to call the bluff on his and his legal team's 'willy waving'.

How many last chances, i'm not even sure the squad see him as an asset, more of a nuisance. The talent is there, the application isnt... he's wasting a squad space for someone who actually wants it.

Taking your own club to tribunal, when you're Mario Balotelli... it was never going to end well!

So you reckon Yaya who says the best is yet to come from Mario who was close to player of the Euro2012 finals is taking through his Yaya.

Again, if the player is responsible for missing games and being unavailable for selection.

It's unfair that the club can't take action
