The ballboy must go to the same acting school as all the overpaid girlie pink dress wearing graham norton wannabes that roll over and cry for there mamas breasts when anyone comes to tackle them.
Honestly, id of kicked him again and made the little s##t cry harder, been worth a ban and a weeks wages

Not that I'am a football fan of course but from what I first saw it was a red card!
Then when you hear about the timewasting tactics that had gone on during the game by the ballboys and this unfortunate young lads pre match comments, then you have to ask was this a conspiracy aimed at further attempts to discredit the fine upstanding history of Chelsea!
My Dad and I stood on the terraces of Stamford Bridge during the great FA Cup run of 1970 and were amazed at the skill of players such as Charlie Cooke, Bobby Tambling, and Peter Bonnetti - Yes when you could call it the beautiful Game! (I have of course had to omit Ron Harris and David Webb).
Now our National Game is such a business that tactics off the field play a major part of the end result, clubs reduce the size of the pitch to gain an advantage against certain opposition. and this incident is just an escalation of those tactics.

Having said all that, I believe it was a geniune attempt to get the ball from under the lad and it's not the outragous incident that 'normal time' indicated.
I think the 3 match ban is adequate (keeps him out of the game against Newcastle) and there should be either no ball boys or an age rule to eliminate corruption.

Was going to reply in French as that is going to be our second language apparantley up here in the North East.
