what a knob

Would people really like cheating ball boys representing Bolton? a player get's a yellow for timewasting and obstructing the ball, a red card in one instance for a player that.

probably not, but not half as much as they wouldn't like to see a Bolton ball boy kicked by an opposition player, they'd be after hanging him by his bollocks I'd imagine.

What would be the outcome if a teacher tried this with a year 11 or year 12 pupil?

For some reason footballers are above the law.

 

What is the equivalent?

 

Hazard wouldn't have kicked if there was no ball to try and get, if the cheat was not guarding the ball, Hazard would have left him, retrieved the ball and probably just laughed at how pathetic the bb looked.

If you can't see a link or equivalence then I'm not going to try to explain. Lets just say that if I kicked a child tomorrow I'd be sacked WHATEVER reason or context. He should deal with it professionally.

He's 17 I believe.

What scenario would you be in? I need help to visualise.

 

Does the pressure under when millions of pounds are at stake compare to that of teaching?

Maybe we should all calm the fuck down as these are statements from those who it involves and they seem pretty calm about it

 

Chelsea's manager, Rafael Benítez, said that Hazard and the ballboy had exchanged apologies in the dressing room after the match.

"They apologised to each other," he said. "They both talked. The boy knows he was wasting time. Hazard was frustrated and trying to get the ball back.

"We can not change the situation. We are disappointed because we lost a player. The best thing for us is to move forward."

The Swansea manager, Michael Laudrup, said he expected Hazard would regret the incident when he views it on television.

"I saw it from a very big distance from the bench," he said. "I've since seen it after the game. Hazard is a great player. When he sees the images I think he will regret it."

Laudrup denied the club had given the ball boys instructions to hold on to the ball when it went out of play.

"No, no. Definitely not," he said. "I think he was pushed and on top of the ball. I can understand all the frustrations when you are behind."

No doubt you'd all be saying the same if it was a ballboy at the Reebok? Ball boy was being a bit of a dick, but then he's a teenager working for nowt, not an adult professional on £100,000 a week. 10 game ban for me please (and a shoeing off ball boys Dad).

 

Correct. Same ban that Cantona got for me. You just cannot defend Hazard over this, whatever the provacation or situation in the match.

Ridiculous.

 

A world of difference.

Sorry my mistake. There is no pressure at all in teaching its very easy and rare to find confrontational situations.

On the pressure scale between a newspaper round and a premiership footballer I'll try to work out which job on the scale is the first one where you can kick someone of school/6th form age and claim pressure as a mitigating factor.

I never said there was no pressure but I do believe the same scenario will be hard to replicate.

If a 17 year old kid came and sat on my desk and tried to stop me working, they'd get a slap. Welcome to the real world.

And if I hit a 17 year old tomorrow I would be sacked.

I look forward to the impressionable youngsters (many who unfortunately follow Chelsea) thinking that its ok to kick ball boys. They already have Rooney and Ferguson as classic role models in the treatment of officials.

that hazard obviously is idiotic for doing it, but he's only 21 himself, phrases like "prem footballer kicks ball boy" make it sound like some beast of a bloke has twatted little 10 yr old little Johnny.

theres only a few years between them, not that that makes it alright, but it ' hardly adult on child violence that can be equated to teachers twatting pupils to be fair.

And if I hit a 17 year old tomorrow I would be sacked.

 

I'm guessing you work in a position of responsibility. In the real world they'd get a slap. It's a lesson people learn the hard way due to mollycoddling.

world's gone mad

It's something and nothing. Ball boy is a little tosser. Hazard, at worst, naive.

 

Media has already gone into predictable sensation overdrive.

 

Agreed

Owd up.

 

The player didn't stop and ask te ball boys age. He didn't stop to alert the ref of the time wasting.

 

He didn't check the lads twitter feed beforehand to see if he was up to a few playful tricks.

 

He booted out at the ball boy live on worldwide tv.

 

You just cannot do that!!

 

There isn't a man alive who wouldn't be angry if one of their own kids received that treatment.

Fuck me. Didn't watch the game lat night but was listening to this on Talksport on my drive in earlier.

 

The way they were talking about it I assumed Hazard had sent him into orbit, folk saying shit like, "If he'd done that on the street he'd be banged up for it."

 

Fuck off.

 

If they'd been on the street and that was Hazard's ball, there's no way that 17 yr old scrotum would run over, lie on it and not give it him back.

 

Yes, Hazard was naive and deserves a punishment, probably 3 games, but that lad (he's not a child) should fucking know better. Delaying giving a ball back is one thing, lying on top of it to prevent Chelsea re-starting the game is another thing entirely.

 

I AM glad to hear though that the scrote and his parents have said they're not 'pursuing the matter'. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that.

 

I'm pretty certain the FA will come down liek a tonne of bricks and hit him with a 5+ game ban, which is at least two more games than a two-footed leg breaking challenge.

All things considered ^ This would be my view.

So you're one of those lazy cunt teachers who can't be arsed digging the snow from around your car and getting to school to teach?

On a serious note, he holds the ball up better than donkey Davies so we should sign him up

If any kid thinks it's okay to kick out at anyone then I'd suggest his/her parents have done a dreadful job of raising them.

He's kicked the ball.. hence why the ball rolls the same direction as what it was kicked...

 

He's a premiership footballer. If he's wanted to kick the lad it would have been a lot harder..

i agree that he kicks the ball

 

the kid looked a bit special to me
