As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Also, your description of the incident has a hint of Marvel about it. There was no super rich villain taking footballs away from baby cherubs.
Hazard went for the ball and the very very old ball boy wouldn't return it. More than that, he fell on it. Hazard kicked the ball out from under the very rich chav (money can't buy class, but Chelsea know that). Hazard got some of the chav but if you are going to lie on G88ner's turkey, you are going to have to pretend to be hurt.

If one of our players had been trying to get the ball back quickly trying to save a cup tie and the ball boy had acted like that I guarantee there would be an outcry on here and Wenger would pursue a complaint against Swansea. Be consistent in your arguments. Its got nothing to do with supporting Chelsea. Fuck me I was one of the main voices on here saying how them winning the CL was possibly the worst moment in football ever (whilst others were wildly celebrating in the pub running around pretending to be spitfires and singing the Dambusters tune). I hate the bastards with every bone in my body
But an adult - yep 17 yrs old - with plenty of mouth on Twitter lays on the football 10 mins from the end of a cup semi-final, Hazard doesn't want to have to try and wrestle it and stands there for a bit before doing the smallest toe punt into the side of the ball, when suddenly the gobshite 17 year old becomes an 8 year old cry baby and runs to mummy.
Honestly, this is the biggest non story ever and to think the police were involved too. Fuck me, absolutely pathetic. Hazard did fuck all wrong.
Absolutely spot on summation SteveO.
I absolutely detest Chelscum , but take that out of the equation and you can't possibly see anything other than the dick ball'man' (he's not a boy he's 17 for fucksake), being a crunt, and Hazard being keen to get the ball back-he definitely doesn't kick anything but the ball.
We'd be delighted if some of our players showed that amount of passion in a game.
Our beloved "leader" (c**t) and the twitcher have both come out very strongly against the ball"boy" - the twitcher went as far as saying that hazard should have kicked him harder
Have to say that my opinion on this changed when I found out about his age and his tweets earlier in the day
Wonder did Hazard know what age he was when he was kicking him or maybe he asked him first? Or maybe he had read the lads tweets and decided that he thought the lad was a *word censored* because of his twitter posts?
Good justification.
I was in Tesco today and this young fella on the tills (looked about 12 tbh) was takin fuckin ages bagging the customers stuff. When it came my turn I just got very frustrated and lost my temper. I wrestled him to the ground, and kicked the fuckin pot noodles out from under him.
Its OK though. Apparantely the lad is actually 17 and not 12. And from what I hear he posts a lot of arrogant shit on twitter. So hes an obvious *word censored*, twat, moron, chav. Most said he deserved it the little *word censored*.
Was reading in the paper about a girl who had been raped. When she went to court the rapists defence team actually tried to say she was gagging for it. They tried to make out that she was the guilty one, that she had done something wrong. Brought up stuff she had said, done in the past etc....
Turns out she was a right slapper, chav, tramp and deserved a good cocking. Bitch

I can't believe you just made that comparison. Read it again.....pleased with your work?
A footballer taps the side of a football that a kid is laying on and he falls over. My lad often sits on the ball in our garden, and do you know what....once I gave it a little kick and he fell off it. Don't phone Childline now will you?
The nanny state lives on.

A footballer wrestles a ballboy to the ground and kicks him while hes down. A footballer that should not be touching ballboys at all. A footballer that I'm sure has wasted plenty of time himself holding out for a win or draw. A footballer that, if hes a problem can complain to the ref or lino.

Thats how I saw it.
EDIT:- No I'm "Disgusted of M ilton Keynes"
All correct apart from the fact that the boy was already on the floor himself and not wrestled, is actually a man and he taps his foot against the ball making no contact with the man at all....who then rolls around in mock agony like a poor man's Eboue
I think the fact that neither Swansea nor the boy...err man's family have pursued it further says everything about how embarrassed they are.
If a 17 year old player playing for the opposition was holding on to the ball in a match (quite possible) and one of our players tried to wrestle it from his grasp to restart the game would that be shocking, worthy of the death penalty and comparable to rape too.
The rape thing was to demonstrate how the lad is being demonised and slaughtered instead of Hazard, the one who actually did something wrong. Exactly how rape victims used to be treated. Blame the victim.
His age and what he posted on twitter are irrelevent imo. Also Hazard approached him and wrestled him to the ground, trying to get the ball. He should not be grappling with ballboys.
Lets say someone in the crowd, in the front row had the ball and Hazard had tried to grab the ball from him/her and that spectator had fallen, then got kicked?
My argument is that Hazard was the one in the wrong. There are absolutely no mitigating circumstances, and Hazard should get a lengthy ban.
Sorry armchair, but you're wrong on this one mate.
Also, you cannot justify your point with hypothetical arguments.
The ball man was bang out of order. The fact the he tweeted beforehand that he was going to time waste is not irrelevant to the incident, but your rape scenario is.
I appreciate your protestaions for the ball man as a victim, but it is misguided at best.
Have a stiff drink and an early night, and enjoy tomorrow and the rest of the weekend.
Especially with their replys to the frankly embarrassing Chelsea correlation made by supergeorgegraham.
