Ballboy jumps to defense of a football.

[TheRisingSun]

I don't think the ballboy was being a twat at all.

He was in the process of getting the ball, albeit a little slowly, before Hazard comes up and pushes him over.

Oh, do feck off

I stopped reading after this. Why would Hazard go and push him over? He was clearly trying to strip the ball from his hands as quickly as possible and the kid wasn't letting go and then fell over rugby style with the ball in his hands pretending he was hurt from Hazard's original efforts to take the ball from him.

A child of Suarez.

 

[Fergies Gum]

Pretty funny, he's 17 apparently so a fair target for a kicking I think.

He looks about 10.

 

[Unam333]

The ball boy was annoying, but Hazard shouldn't have kicked the little shit.

 

[Raven Blade]

One of the most bizarre things I've seen. The kid will get his 15 mins of fame but Hazard really shouldn't have stuck his foot in. He fell for the bait.

 

[JustAFan]

I don't think the ballboy was being a twat at all.

He was in the process of getting the ball, albeit a little slowly, before Hazard comes up and pushes him over. The kid is a bit of numpty and sort of lies on top of the ball for a couple seconds, but I think we can put that down to the fact that he's a little kid who has just been pushed over by a Premiership football in front of about 30,000 people.

He wasn't lying on the ball to be a prick/time waste/stop Hazard getting it, he was probably just a bit shocked/dazed/overawed and had a 2 second brain meltdown and froze up.

Hazard was presumably sent off for pushing him over in the first place as much as kicking him when he was on the floor.

The whole incident took just a few seconds it seems so definate over-reaction by Hazard and again if it was not a Chelsea throw in then Hazard had no business running over and trying to get the ball, then pushing the kid over.

No huge ban due, just a few games, a fine and an apology

is that our very own SteveJ?

I know he didn't make much money from his book but feck me that's low.

This. Hazard shoved him over from behind. The kid wasn't even wasting time by that point.

The kid fell onthe ball, probably in shock, and then Hazard kicks him in the ribs!!

We were all probably thinking, this might be brought up in the papers tomorrow, and then suddenly the ref is looking all serious and he's off.

I loved it

 

[duffer]

No ballboys will DARE slow us down again.

 

[JustAFan]

What if it turns out the kid is a bit special to use a politically correct term. Hazard will be fecked over by the press.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Could someone in theory from the public complain to get the police involved?

 

[Ish]

was hilarious as feck. Even more so when big man Terry was getting upset on the sidelines

Ballboy was acting the twat but coz its Chelsea & Hazard opcorngif:

 

[JayWalker]

No ballboys will DARE slow us down again.

 

[forevrared]

9 month ban then, not much different from going into the stands.

 

[TheRisingSun]

@CHARLIEM0RGAN: The king of all ball boys is back making his final appearance #needed #for #timewasting

Look at what the little shit tweeted 4 hours ago. You've got to say he's played a blinder. Probably brought in by Swansea as a specialist cnut for a one off big game.

Sigh.

 

[Rowem]

Oh, do feck off

A child of Suarez.

You're obviously angry and blind to what happened.

The kid is getting the ball and Hazard grabs hold of him, to try and hurry him up presumably, but in the process he knocks the kid on the floor.

 

[Robbie Boy]

Huge story ahoy.

Hazard looks like a little cnut so I am delighted for him.

The kid was wasting time mate.

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

Ballboy was a dick but you just can't kick out like that whatever the situation.

 

[Sixpence]

Little shit deserved a bigger boot than Hazard gave him. Ridiculous red card that needs to be overturned, and probably will be. He milked it for all it was worth, little bastard.

 

[Nate Dogg]

I see no difference with this and the Cantona kung fu kick....but the question is will he get banned for a few months?

 

[Ish]

Irony of it all - Hazard tries to prevent time wasting, only to waste more time & get sent off

 

[Drainy]

No ballboys will DARE slow us down again.

Maybe you should get someone to do that to Torres?

 

[Dan]

Did Hazard rip his coat?

 

[rcoobc]

I see no difference with this and the Cantona kung fu kick....but the question is will he get banned for a few months?

The age of the person in question

 

[ItsEssexRob]

Oh fecking jesus. I said in the other thread tonights game was a win win for me. Somehow, Somehow its ended up being a loss.

Stupid reaction from Hazard, he will have to learn from that. You cant do that in todays overblown football society.

I dont wish to hear Rafas interview.

 

[Mockney]

The people trying to paint the ball boy as the stoic innocent victim You wallies.

I see no difference with this and the Cantona kung fu kick....but the question is will he get banned for a few months?

That is what I would call different opinions.

Is sixpence a Chelsea fan?

Was it a Chelsea throw?

I highly highly doubt that this red card will be overturned. Hazard kicked the dude in the ribs - whether he meant it or not.

Please, mate. The kid didn't get pushed over, he fell on top of the ball on purpose to prevent Hazard from getting it. Hazard had no interest in pushing over, he was trying to take the ball from him and the kid was protecting it.

He wasn't hurt at the beginning, look at his own tweet that I've posted above and look at his "agonised" face.

slight difference in ferocity mate

But he'll do amazingly well to just get the 3match ban for this!

 

[JustAFan]

OMG Skysports is hilarious, just showed quick highlights, they cut from Hazard being shown red to Swansea's bench celebrating. The edit makes it look like they are celebrating the red.

This is an incident that will be remember probably forever and it's fecking hilarious. Id love it if the press go completely over the top now and Hazard gets fecked over. The icing on the cake would be a meltdown from Benitez in the post match interview, I can't fookin wait!

 

[JayWalker]

Hey mods, come on, if ever an incident required a " This gon be good" gif, this is it. Do the deed!

 

[Xander45]

His twitter has been found already ffs.

What a tit

He's either a young looking 17 year old, or I'm getting old

 

[kouroux]

That ball boy is a pussy, he should have retaliated instead of lying like a girl on the floor
