Did Ben Shephard just say Brian Laudrup?

[GP]

#PrayForBallboy is trending :lol:

[Boss]

Both the ballboy and Hazard deserve hard slaps.

32M for that filth. :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Thank fuck it wasn't Suarez.

[Özim]

Thank fuck it wasn't Suarez.
Apparently he told the ball boy to act like that.

[Maestro]

ball boy deserved a kick and hazard deserved a red card

[Joker]

Ballboy was being a dick tbh, although obviously no excuse for what Hazard did.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Apparently someone has already found the kid's twitter.

Charlie Morgan™ ‏@CHARLIEM0RGAN
The king of all ball boys is back making his final appearance #needed #for #timewasting

:haha:

And frankly from the look of it, it should have been in the face.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He could've been killed!

It's uncanny.

[Marc Overmars]

The ballboy has GHELkinsons GHELcut.

[Dennis Bendtner]

It's like those annoying little kids at school acting the Big Man and kicking your ball away. GTFO. Fully deserved.

Stop, stop, he's already dead...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Finish him!

[GP]

Rafa:

"The ball boy knows he was wasting time. We are disappointed to lose the player but we cannot change things."

Unbelievable.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rafa. :lol:

He's one of them now. Well, not for long.

Also, how good has the COC been this season?

[Kano]

i did like how terry flew off the bench looking to get his putrid face involved. it probably brought back memories of diaby.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

To be fair, the more and more I see of the ballboy, the more and more I sympathise with Hazard.

[GP]

Anyone who describes himself as a LAD deserves to have his head kicked off.

But it's Chelsea, so I hope they throw the book at him.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

NSPCCFC. :bow:

[Ollie the Optimist]

Torres would have missed him, Cole would have shot him, Terry would have shagged him.

[Marc Overmars]

Hazard should really have just stood there and done nothing because the kid would have looked like an even bigger idiot just laying on the ball like that.

[Dennis Bendtner]

I think he's going to be more hated than the Frosties Kid.

:haha:

What a reaction from the ballboy.

A Busquets special.

[Özim]

To be fair, the more and more I see of the ballboy, the more and more I sympathise with Hazard.
Probably couldn't do kiss and tell so he thought he'd try kick and tell instead.

[Letters]

To be fair, the more and more I see of the ballboy, the more and more I sympathise with Hazard.
:lol: The little shit deserved a kick and frankly the play-acting was #embarrassing. He hardly touched him.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

:lol: The little shit deserved a kick and frankly the play-acting was #embarrassing. He hardly touched him.

He's ruining the game!

[Özim]

:lol: The little shit deserved a kick and frankly the play-acting was #embarrassing. He hardly touched him.
He lacked a little bit of sharpness.

[Letters]

Swansealona. :bow:

Although I'm afraid everyone will be rooting for Bradford.
I will be rooting for Bradford but I don't mind if Swansea win. At last, a proper cup final with no big clubs or billionaire's playthings involved. I can enjoy it and the outcome whatever. A minor victory for proper football.

But Letters, Liverpool won it last year.

Aha.

So a shit club will win it 2 years in a row!

Football :bow:

Asians live there.

FFS Letters. I was pointing out how much of a shit joke it would be, and you still made it :lol:

And it will be 3.

I wonder if they will shake hands next time they meet?

Compare this gesture to Hazard's petulance.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4759989/Bradford-City-cup-hero-celebrates-with-brain-tumour-lad.html

Lower league football :clap: and not an over-paid pre-madonna

[Kano]

Good luck to the boy, milk it for all it’s worth.

17 years old with a life in Swansea ahead of him. Get some money from the papers, got on the lash as much as possible because when he wakes up and everyone has moved on, he’ll still be in living in Swansea.

Poor little fucker.

Poor little fucker.

Isn't he the son of the Swansea Chairman or something, hardly poor then, the little fucker.

It's worth bearing in mind however much of an idiot the ballboy was/is the law says you can't kick idiots, otherwise I'd have worn out many more pairs of boots.

[Özim]

Never before has someone kicked within an inch of their life had such tough press.

[Cripps_orig]

As for last nights incident, Hazard has to be commended surely. That **** ball boy deserved all he got

[BlindFaith_8]

When I first heard the report, I honestly thought what a **** Hazard was for kicking some poor little 10 year old kid in the guts. After seeing the video and the so called little boy, I only wish Hazard would have kicked him in the fucking bollox. He looked like some ferrel chav from the local council estate in his late teens, what the fuck was he doing sleeping on the ball ffs. I back Hazard on this all the way and that little shit should be exposed as the lout he really is, I can just see him in Swansea town centre drininkng is 99p cider and giveing it the large one, fuckin cretin.

[Niall_Quinn]

Poor little fucker.

And he should go on a diet and stop being so ugly and a twat. Then he's made up.

[Cripps_orig]

This is from their official club page.



Rotten to the core.
Have to agree with them in this case. Got to say, I don't have the hatred for Chelsea as some do. I despise Terry of course but other than that, the rest are ok.

[Özim]

My favourite post of yesterday was without question this one:


He really did. Poor kid was just minding his own business and he just walks up to him and booted him in the ribs.

Love it! :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Hazard has been charged with violent conduct.

The wording of it suggests he may even face a longer-than 3 match ban :lol:

[GP]

He should.

Cantona-level.

[Master Splinter]

He should.

Cantona-level.

Pretty much.

As a great man once said: Poor kid was just minding his own business and he just walks up to him and booted him in the ribs.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Azar. :lol:

What a flop.

[Özim]

Hazard has been charged with violent conduct.

Most people think he should get an MBE.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Sky have even got exclusive rights for this now :rolleyes:

BBC :rose:

[Master Splinter]

Bradford v Swansea starting soon.

Predictions? 0-3 to Swansea.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Swansea in ET. No idea what score.

[Marc Overmars]

3-1 Swansealona.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

4-0 Swansea.

Then again I would have said that before your game and both legs of the Villa game.

So 5-0 Swansea.

[Özim]

If we hadn't been bottling losers we'd have had the chance to lose to Swansea in the final.

[Munchies]

3-0 Swansea

Michu x2 , Dyer

What about Villa :P

What about Villa :P
They're just sh*t tbh.

I do love all the pomp and ceremony around a cup final.

:(

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Gawd bless em.

[Munchies]

I do love all the pomp and ceremony around a cup final.

:(

Emirates Cup is coming soon enough :wave:

[Özim]

This is where the CC is better than the CL, at the end of this game you get a trophy, usually when we get into the knockout stages we get a thumping.

I prefer the trophy tbh.

[Özim]

Yeah cup finals are always a bit special.

Yep, what's the point of getting 4th every year, if we don't take advantage of it ? Ie attract the world's top players and make an effort to win the thing.

Fa Cup was also a possibility :/

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bradford 0-1 Swansea, Dyer!

[Özim]

Dyer 1-0!

[Marc Overmars]

Dyer scores

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

This is stirring memories of little bits and bobs of when I played in the League Cup final for Wigan against Manchester United. I have tried to forget it, by now we were 2-0 down so it is something I have not committed to memory.Our disappointment then was that we did not play the best we could and that is the situation with Bradford at the moment."

:blink:

Evidently, given United scored 3 of their 4 goals in the second half.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bradford 0-2 Swansea, Michu!

[Master Splinter]

Bradford :rose:.

[Marc Overmars]

Such a classy finisher.

[Munchies]

FFS , should have betted on this. Went for 3-0 with Dyer and Michu x2 before the game, now it might end up likely

[Marc Overmars]

Bradford finally looking like the pub team they truly are.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rio Ferdinand, Man Utd defender

"Michu + Dyer....game is done! Not a bad shout from me predicting a Swans win!!"

Yeah well done Rio.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bradford 0-3 Swansea, Dyer with his second!

[Marc Overmars]

:rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

RIP Swansea's league form.

:rose:

[hobson's choice]

So who are Swansea gonna represent in Europa next season. Wales or England?

[Niall_Quinn]

Would have been nice to be out there today but we are above this competition. Thank fuck because Swansea would ripped us a new one.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pelanty to Swansea.

Duke sent off!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dyer wants his hat-trick. :haha:

De Guzman the troll. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

They're still arguing!

:haha:

[Letters]

What a **** the ref is.
OK, by the letter of the law it was a sending off but it's game over anyway, do we really need to spoil the rest?

<_<

[McNamara That Ghost...]

De Guzman scores! 0-4.

Canadian glory hunters. :bow:

[Letters]

:lol: He'd never have heard the end of it if he's missed that!

[Master Splinter]

Another reason to bring De Guzman home.

The trolling, not the Canadian bit.

[Özim]

Big team beats small team, that's what happens in modern day cup finals!

[Syn]

What a **** the ref is.
OK, by the letter of the law it was a sending off but it's game over anyway, do we really need to spoil the rest?

<_<

Not really. Remember Istanbul. Or any Arsenal game between 2009-2011.

[hobson's choice]

It's good to see teams like this win a trophy, in this and age of football, where it's almost impossible to win anything, unless you are one of the big boys. This is nice, wish it was us, but i'm happy for those fans and players.

Getting a chance to experience something, that's seems to be only reserved for a few supporters and players.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dyer subbed off. :haha:

Laudrup and De Guzman. :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Shocking we went out to this Bradford team.

[Özim]

De Guzman reminds me of that pr*ck at work that does something just because he knows it will annoy someone, but does it in a way that looks like he'd doing nothing wrong and gets support from a few other pr*cks that pretend they can't see what's wrong with what he's doing.

Tw*t.

[Özim]

Shocking we went out to this Bradford team.
Just bad luck that's all, we're generally unlucky.

Tw*t.

Could have been an instruction from the manager which can't be broken. Laudrup looks like he has discipline in the team but also the respect of the players. I had a feeling he might sub Dyer when he saw him playing for himself rather than the team. Everything looks well balanced at Swansea.

Bradford have a corner :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Now a shot on goal from Bradford. The tide is turning.

[Özim]

I think in that scenario common sense prevails and at 3-0 the game is over anyway so the manager is hardly going to mind.

De Guzman just came across as a pr*ck in all that with that fake smile on his face.

Top post, Dyer came off as selfish idiot, no need for that, your team is having a great day, let everyone bask in the glory.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three added minutes. Can't see Swansea hanging on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tiendalli hits the woodwork!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-5 De Guzman. Time for his hat-trick! :haha:

[Özim]

De Guzman 5-0, no hattrick for him either :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

La Liga D-listers. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-5 FT. Swansea win their first major trophy!

They get their hands on the COC.

[hobson's choice]

Come to Arsenal, Laudrup

[Özim]

Hernandez is awesome.

5-0 Swansea win the CC, another club to have won more than us in the last 8 years.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dyer interview. :popcorn:

[Letters]

Have a day off FFS.

[Özim]

Matchwinner Dyer on tv, only denied hattrick by a selfish pr*ck.

[Marc Overmars]

Pleased for them.

Looking forward to seeing how they fare in Europe next year.

[hobson's choice]

Winning a trophy is such a great feeling, we desperately need to get that understanding back at Arsenal

[Özim]

Winning a trophy is such a great feeling, we desperately need to get that understanding back at Arsenal
Eh? :unsure:

We win one every year.

[Özim]

Swansea impressive, played some great stuff and have a few very good players.

Well deserved trophy.

[Niall_Quinn]

Winning a trophy is such a great feeling, we desperately need to get that understanding back at Arsenal

We aren't out of the 4th place trophy hunt yet. Come the end of the season we may well have that glorious feeling ourselves.

[Kano]

Hernandez is awesome.

5-0 Swansea win the CC, another club to have won more than us in the last 8 years.
true but i'd rather have 0 in 8, than 1 in 100, or 2 in 20 like spurs.

[hobson's choice]

We aren't out of the 4th place trophy hunt yet. Come the end of the season we may well have that glorious feeling ourselves.

All I can do is just giggle at this post with a deep feeling of sadness, it's so sad that people at this club, don't what winning something can do for these players and supporters.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

4-0 Swansea.

Then again I would have said that before your game and both legs of the Villa game.

So 5-0 Swansea.

Not a bad shout from me.

Bradford got merked.

[Niall_Quinn]

Here we go, the cup about to be lifted. If Wenger seriously thinks Vermaelen stepping up there and hoisting a cup wouldn't be a great thing then he should get out of football because he's forgotten what football is about. We could have won this fucking cup and shoved it down the Sun's snout.

[Master Splinter]

Swansea :bow: :bow:.

Brian Laudrup :bow:.

De Trollman :bow:.

Dyer :doh:.

Bradford :bow:.

[Niall_Quinn]

Good post match interviews. The players are making it clear they play for a proper football club. Owners called Jenkins and Morgan, not fucking Stalin or Gungadin. Proper fucking community football. Sooner the Russian and Arab and Yank ****s fuck off and die the sooner we can get proper football back.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I hope Laudrup doesn't pack it all in and get lured to Stamford Bridge.

Then I'd have to hate him.

[Marc Overmars]

Time for Laudrup to come home tbf.

[Özim]

Dyer had the opportunity to create history and be the 1st person to score a hattrick in a CC final don't blame him for being selfish, neither did Alan Smith who sympathised with him.

De Guzman had no need to take the penalty, they were 3-0 up so the game was already won.

[IBK]

Well done, Swansea. Seriously - they are a prime example of a well run club doing the right things. We are not.

[Niall_Quinn]

Well done, Swansea. Seriously - they are a prime example of a well run club doing the right things. We are not.

Agreed.

[Injury Time]

Well done, Swansea. Seriously - they are a prime example of a well run club doing the right things. We are not.

We can't compete with the ambition resources they have.

[Cripps_orig]

Just watched the highlights.

Swansea are a little awesome. Laudrup is the biggest Must Get of all time. Wenger :wave:

[GP]

Can't believe how greedy Dyer was. De Guzman was the designated pelanty taker so there's no question he should have taken it.

[Özim]

Looks like Laudrup hadn't designated a penalty taker, so year like I said De Guzman what a pr*ck, good to see people just making things up.


Laudrup said: ‘That’s the first penalty we have had this season. I forgot to designate someone. I’m sorry, my mistake.’

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2283802/Nathan-Dyer-clashes-Swansea-team-mate-Jonathan-Guzman-penalty.html

[Joker]

Yeah as there wasn't a designated PK taker Dyer should have been given it. Very selfish from De Guzman.

[Marc Overmars]

Laudrup is cool as fuck tbh.

Hurry up and leave Wenget.
