Just as I begin to find the guy amusing he has to go and do this. I wish he'd make the choice either to be a playful eccentric or a dick. If nothing else it's making it tough for me to judge him
JiMMy 85 11:45AM And why is that comment of the year? Why on Earth has race been brought into this, ironically or not? This board is really beginning to worry me.
You can be calm and concerned (and patronised) all at the same time. I just don't think it's funny, or tongues being in cheek is enough justification to rattle that cage.
If it has been reported to the police and an investiagtion is commenced, a race aspect would have to be considered. It looks an off the ball incident and although it doesn't look as bad, Darren Ferguson was sent to jail for an off the ball assualt.
Although that was in Scotland and the rules are probably different there.
Thought the Lanky pra** Crouch incident was worse than Ballotelli and Lescott --Crouch could only cause grevious damage to the guys eye -luckily like his finishing he missed -he is a disgrace
He should be banned for 10 games and a fine a big as him .....what he attempted was a cowardly act
It was Duncan Ferguson who was jailed, not Darren Ferguson, and yes Scotland does have a different legal system to the rest of the UK and has done for several hundred years.
richie8 9:47AM Ive played rugby for years and have shoed plenty and been shoed myself and that is deliberate.Not 100% sure he was going for his head,but he saw an opportunity to stamp on Parker and try to make it look accidental and took it.
At least he is getting paid to do it, you just enjoy it:-)
the mans a total idiot should get more than 4 game ban ,dont like him overated thinks he can do as he pleases, go back to italy oh yeh they love him over there dont they.
How anyone can argue that he put his foot down like that because he was off balance amazes me. He didn't put his foot down: he stamped! And in an unnatural direction. It doesn't need to be seen twice - it's bleeding obvious.
Citeh have indicated through Platt that they wont appeal although they have until 6pm to make a decision. Howard Webb said if he had seen it he would have given a straight red (although this is the same Howard Webb who failed to red card akung-fu assault by De Jong in the World Cup Final even though it took place in front of him.) I won't be sorry if he leaves as I can't stand violent footballers however 'talented' they may be. I reckon Citeh fans feel the same. No good having a lunatic leaving your team a man short.
Platt was the mouthpiece of a fundamentally dishonest outfit. They jump on their high horse when Tevez messes with them, but it's different when it's a player they want to keep. It sickens me that a club with so much money, so much power, chooses to be so pathetically hard done by when it comes to admitting the truth about the behaviour of their players.
If it wasn't Scott Parker, would so many on here be so quick to judge?
What if he'd accidentally stamped on Kevin Muscat?
Unfortunately, yes I would still think he did it deliberately. I would of course also be pleased that he had kicked the biggest **** that has played in England in the last 20 years.
SLL, typical response fom a Millwall clown.........acidentally, as you say, and it wouldn't be a debate, hey? Dig deep and get real ......think about the game and it's/yours/our values, then post again.
His agent now reckons Balotelli might leave England because of persecution.........fingers crossed!
I saw this, wasn't the exact quote that he feels persecuted by referees here ? I don't understand that at all considering the referee didn't send him off for the stamp on Parker.

Thought Lescott's elbow was far worse, incidentally - unlike Ballotelli he intended to take Kabul's head off.
