"hmm, the picture on the main news channels showed him being kicked"

I wonder why?

Irrespective of what age he was, no one has the right to kick someone for any reason, even if it was to retrieve a ball. If it was YOUR son, would that have been ok too? I don't think so!

Ball boys have been part of tactics for years - remember them drying the ball at Stoke City before giving it to Rory Delap to ensure good grip for his mammoth throw ins. I'm sure the lad meant well and sadly events looked far more severe first time round than several cameras finally showed. Nobody came out of this looking good.

I would say though, enough of the child abuse/attacking a boy comments - seriously, there have been younger players appearing for their team on the pitch than this guy  :D

Toky if he was my son, taking into account the circumstances, I would have been O.K. with it.   I would have, like a lot of the Swansea fans, been deeply ashamed of him. I would also have given him a clip around the ear and told him he deserved everything he got
New video angles show the player was kicking the ball and not the boy, the boy pretended he was hurt.
The latest picture of the boy sitting in First Class on a Virgin flight to Las Vegas   Take a look at his own pictures of the broken champagne bottle and the betting slips.

Seems like this boy is always used to getting what he wants.

Proberbley a man thing but if spurs could win the premier League on the last game of the season with ball boys or  crowd, even players diving cheating using  gamesmanship what ever to win , I think id take that and still be happy thinking how annoyed the supporters of rival teams would be, but this aint going to happen so ill just dream on for now  ;D
