Swansea V Chelsea

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

That ball boys made a few thousands tonight, fair play.

 

[Justice]

The refs are so poor in this country nothing surprises me

 

[Badger]

I imagine this will be taken down soon

 

[Hyperion]

Well very similar incident happened at Brentford game vs Leyton Orient yesterday I think.

 

[Max Paper]

Unreal. Ball boy minted.

 

[Gwm]

The ball boy is on twitter and tweeted this 4 hours ago

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

Hazard was out of order as thee ball boy was just trying to buy his club some time but I also think the ball boy was unsporting & will be given his marching orders.

I remember a game in the late 80's against man city at the goldstone when we were 2.1 & the ball went out of play towards ted streeter & he back headered it into the crowd & I think he got the sack because of it

 

[WhingForPresident]

Hazard is going to get in a LOT of trouble for this.
Didn't mean to kick the kid, but he still did. Violent conduct, red card is justified. That won't be the only action taken either I'm sure.

 

[Sussax]

Kicked the ball my arse. He kicked him right in the ribs!

 

[beardy gull]

What the f*** was the little shit doing? Hope it hurt.

 

[Ferg]

Ball boy

Cracking start to the game.
Bradford fans must be hoping for Chelsea, gives them more of a chance. Swansea are superb

Swansea ball boy totally out of order Hazard in my view not the villain here for trying to get the ball

 

[coagulantwolf]

I'm sorry but that was never a red, should be over-turned, Swansea should be fined and the ball boy banned.

That boy has milked it to another level, to then praise him is continuing the cycle that 'making the most of contact' and 'timewasting' is a good thing in football. It's everything wrong in football.

And to anyone that says he kicked him in the ribs, please get your vision checked. He kicks a ball.

No, I'm not having that. Disgraceful from the ball boy, disgraceful from the ref.

 

[Max Paper]

I'd have done the same as Hazard, infact I would have kicked him a lot harder

 

[Triggaaar]

It was violent conduct. It doesn't matter who you are violent against. If a fan runs towards you on the pitch and you trip them up you would get sent off. Hence why he was gone. It is we deserved.

Of course we all agree it doesn't matter who you are violent to, but it's clear he wasn't violent to anyone.

Can't believe those defending Hazard. Stupid, stupid thing to do. If a player did that Sat/Sunday league they would be banned for life.

Banned for kicking the ball?

Does some on here forget our tactics at Withdean ?

Ball boy quickly grabs the ball, and hands it to opponents to take a quick throw-in and score before our defenders have caught up with play, if memory serves. I certainly don't remember one of our ball boys trying to hatch a ball.

I think he was, maybe not as hard as he made out but he was.

He wasn't. He was cheating from the start (that much is obvious) and he's eventually holding the other side of his body, not the side that he pretended was kicked.

 

[Bold Seagull]

What the f*** was the little shit doing? Hope it hurt.

Picking up the ball ready to throw it to the keeper like most ball boys do until a player assaulted him!?

Think you'll find that was Keith cuss not dear old Ted

 

[Weststander]

Tippy tappy football will never get you anywhere in British football.

Oh, it just did. Swansea.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Red card justified for me.

Yes the ballboy was being a monumental idiot who will probably be sacked anyway, but Hazard didn't need to go and kick the ball from underneath him, out of frustration I think. He didn't need to do it and the ref obviously thought it was worse than it was.

Play-acting like that, him and Zaha would make a great double act. Also, doesn't that ballboy look a lot like Craig Noone ?

 

[Kazenga <3]

I'm team Hazard here. Twat of a ball boy.

 

[R. Slicker]

I'm struggling to see how you people are defending Hazard. Watch the video, doesn't matter what the lad was doing, you can't go and boot him and then be shocked at being sent off.
