Capital One Cup Semi-Final - 8/9/22/23 January *** Spoilers ***

Joey Barton - After reviewing last nights footage, I've come to the conclusion that the games gone. Ballboys aged 17, time wasting, then rollin round like ..they've been shot. Games gone. He was actually claiming to be best time waster in the world on twitter yesterday! WTF' that all about? ... Hazard only crime is he hasn't kicked him hard enough...

:D
 
Tell me the kid doesn't deserve it.

Totally irrelevant, you don't kick a 17 year old child on the basis he deserves it. Do people carry this attitude away from football? He's an idiot so if I kick him its ok because he deserved it.

Ball boy was daft, it's part of the home advantage ball boys time wasting, similar to having towels et cetra. You don't however as a grown man kick the 17 year old because he's done something you don't like.

I don't understand this attitude that it's some how excused because the kid was as daft as a brush.

Bored of this to be honest already, well bored of it on here.
 
Not much to say other than both the ball boy and Hazard were stupid. They have said sorry to each other, I'm sure the ball boy will get a talking to and Hazard, quite rightly, will get a 3 match ban ( though i don't think he should be banned for longer).

Is 17 really that much of a 'child'? I'm pretty sure if you were stood in front of him and called him a child he would be pretty insulted.

Both parties have apologised, I'd rescind the red card and move on. Football is embarrassing at times.
 
I don't think the red card should be rescinded. Although I do think the kid deserves a kicking Hazard's actions were... badly thought out.
 
All i'l say is, Swansea are so good at keeping the ball, even our ball boys do it well.

ALSO, i'm from Swansea and know who the kid is...

Its actually one of the Swans directors son. The "boy" is 17 named Charlie Morgan and his Dad is Martin Morgan.

Martin Morgan owns half of the businesses in Swansea aswel as all the property he's worth about £110million. Thats the reason they shook hands and not sued him. He didn't need the money, hell he drove home in a Audi R8! twitter is @CharlieMorgan , should see his house!

Whats more funny is that The Chelsea team were staying in Hotel his father owns haha!

tbh hazard is a bit of a berk kicking him, its only going to reflect badly no matter how much some people agree with his actions. its never going to look good for him or the club kicking a ballboy no matter what the circumstances

Swansea should have been pulled up by the ref for time wasting but i'd imagine that the ref would take this into account with added on time so it would have balanced out in the end.
 
Even just kicking a ball out from underneath him could cause injury so I don't see how anyone can argue it wasn't a red card, there are worse red cards given for on the field incidents every week in football.

[edit]No, you're right, he could've killed him.
