Hazard kicks ballboy and is sent off

[supergeorgegraham]

He kicked the kid on the ribs. Well done all those on Hazards side. Same fans who like Kronke I guess.

[OneBardGooner]

The kid has been taken to hospital and has been tweeting that he's only bruised.....

This has been blown out of all proportion.

1: Hazard needs a good "Slap" and a kick in the bollocks for being so silly (a fine will do nothing as he is a millionaire) Perhaps he should be made to stand bollock naked on a freezing cold day and all the ball boys/girls of swansea can take as many free shots with a football from 3 yards.

2: The ball boy should be cuffed around the ear for being a 'dick' AND be banned for 3 games

3: John Terry should bekicked to pieces and shat on by a load of drunken vagrants with diarrhoea for getting all pikey spikey on the touchline *word censored*

4: And what I want to know is did swansea have a ball boy on the bench to take over from the injured one?

What utter bollocks and what the fuck has it got to do with peoples thought on Kroenke?

Ballboy is 17 (same age as Southampton's left back) and son of a director. Still Hazard was wrong even if his frustration was understandable. The ballboy was out of order also. Think Glenda on Sky was saying ballboys would be instructed to help with the time wasting , which reminded me of the day at Old Trafford when we lost the unbeaten record. Apparently the ballboys were stood down with three minutes left in the game when Utd were one up thanks to Shrek's dive.

Agreed. How has this spun round to matters of the board?

Anyway look at kites video and you will see its quite clear his foot connected with the ball. From another angle it's clear it's his shin that hits his ribs.

Come on people as if the player went to kick a kid in the ribs in front of tv cameras and thousands of people watching.

Hazard is 22 only 5 years older than the ball 'man' how embarrassing to want to be a ball boy/man at that age

What they did was wrong from both of them, but that fella (Swansea director's son) shouldn't be laying on the ball, this shouldn't be happening in modern football. And in the 80th minute of second semifinal leg, losing by two goals, I believe everyone would react the same(except Torres who would miss him ), so I never thought I would say this, buy I'm with Hazard on this.

Yes, I remember reading about that at the time.

As if the dive wasn't enough. Chelsea maybe classless but whiskey nose and the red sh**e have been guilty of the same over years. Cantona was never condemned. Ferdinand misses a mandatory drug test to go shopping. Whiskey nose belittles in a rude manner yet no media uproar.

Well I suppose "the game" can't be seen to condone violence no matter how slight it is. It's no where near as bad as I was led to believe by the media (didn't watch their game last night).

Hazard's a fool for doing it, but the "kid" ( ) is a toe-rag. Ban both of them.

[markyp]

if that was an Arsenal player in the same situation id pat him on the back,that ball man/boy was an absolute disgrace,swansea need a speaking to by the f.a.it was a cup semi,passions running high,it was hardly a cantona kung fu kick,and hazard got the ball.but Terry is still a *word censored*

To be fair, the ball boy has a mental age of 12 by the looks of it! South Wales Chav

[northbank123]

Shows a bit of fucking passion and frustration at least. If a Jack bastard did that in a game I was playing in I'd give him a kick so I can only imagine how fucking annoying it must be in a Cup semi-final at that level. You just don't expect ballboys to fuck around.

If it had been the other way round and Michu had kicked a ball-boy doing the same at Stamford Bridge to run the clock down would people have been crying out in anger for him to be banned for the season and other ridiculous punishments? No, the focus would be on how Chelsea are rotten to the core and even the ballboys are cheating wankers.

[MK Gould]

He toe pokes the ball and his shin pad hits the fellas ribs and he reacted as if his ribs were broken roiling round the pitch. Ridiculous!

Not going to happen of course, but maybe Hazard and other footballers should look at the video of the "kid" rolling around and wonder maybe where he got his inspiration....?

And although Hazard was only 5 years older, I do think there is a massive difference between 17 and 22. My kids are in this age group and I think its fair to say (and no disrespect to anyone on here !) that most 17 year olds are still kids.... He is probably still in school, living at home, not earning a wage, virgin (yes, even in South Wales!) etc.
