Swansea v Chelsea/Arse Vs West ham/Hazard incident

[jay_mcfc]

If Swansea encourage their Ballboy to do this then they should be thrown out of the competition. They can bleat on about their old financial problems all they want. No sympathy from me because that was unsporting and incredibly pathetic.

An absurd comment.

The 'bloke' is a boy of about 15, if Hazard doesn't go for the ball in the first place the kid would have thrown it on, wasting 5 seconds? It's him standing over the kid who's slipped that makes him lie on the ball and after that he acts like a complete cock, which after his drawn out twitter transfer isn't surprising.

Aww diddums. What a load of crap, the lad knows exactly what he is doing and so do you. If Silva had done that what would you have said. Actually never mind.

I'd have said Silva was a twat if that was the case.
Can't believe you're making an excuse for him.
And if you think kicking kids is acceptable god help yours.

I'd be ashamed if he was mine and he isn't a little kid lets have it right.

Anyone remember that ball boy at Brighton v City back in the 80's , in the dying minutes with them leading he kicked the ball into the crowd, we all went mental.

Maybe the ball boy is a Swansea fan and was desperate to see his side in a final, if the ball had landed in your hands during the F.A cup semi at 1-0 near the end of the game and Ferdinand was waiting for you to throw it to him for a rag corner or throw in would you have got it back to him a.s.a.p ?

Kicking kids? Hilarious.

the kid was smothering the ball... you can see it for yourself, he's not even attempting to let go of the ball when Hazard attempts to take it away. So he kicks it out. Then of course Swansea saw that as a reason to attempt to get him sent off.

You can see it for yourself.

The kid even tweeted four hours ago.


"The king of all ball boys is back making his final appearance #needed #for #timewasting"

They knew exactly what they were doing, Sky even showed an incident before that with Lampard asking the ref to check the watch as the ballboys were slow to get the ball.

Would not surprise me if criminal charges follow. If you did that in the street you would be bang to rights. Kid was a dick but no excuse for a professional footballer. The clue is in the job title.... Professional...

You do realise pretty much every club who plays a 2 legged game will instruct their ball bays to either get the ball fast or slow depending on their situation. It no different than Stoke using towels and narrowing their pitch. It's home advantage.

Stoke barely score any goals from throw-ins and I'm struggling to think of ANY other occasion where a Ballboy has done this. It's everywhere now as it's such an odd and shocking occurrance.

Not giving a ball back is not an excuse to assault someone ! What is wrong with some of you ?

I found Hoddles comments interesting where he publicly declared that all clubs do it, encourage the ball boys to waste time when their side is ahead... I know we all know it happens, we see it often enough, but to say publicly this is what clubs actually do..... ouch!!

kicking the ball underneath someone is a criminal offense?!
