    Were they caught using vuvuzelas? Sounds fair, if that's what it was.

    The punishment should be making them sit through the ACoN. That's enough to bore anyone to death...

    He had a really strange upbringing, Dona. It's not surprising that he's turned out a bit odd.

    He shows disrespect for authority and helps people less fortunate (financially) than himself. Good lad! <ok>

    i understand that PNP...but his life has turned out great at an early age....i think he needs to sit down and have a little think about that....i just cant sympathise or understand when i know many people who have it hard in their upbringing yet it doesnt go great for them in thier late teens onwards...unlike for this twat.

    Do you guys think he might have a few regrets when his career is over ??

    Seems to me there is a talent in there which may never be fulfilled because of his wayward ways.

    there's actually some really nice gestures in there, such as the Money he gave the tramp, the £50 notes he gives out to random people and trying to pay off the library fines, to name 3.

    My personal favourites (from a comedy point of view)

    - his mum telling him to get the bare essentials and he comes back with a vespa, a trampoline and a scalextric! <laugh>
    - wearing the old Italy kit because he didn't like the new one <laugh>
    - getting asked by the police about the £25,000 cash on his passenger seat . answer: "because I'm rich". - brilliant!! <laugh>

    i understand that angle of thought...however your national team..club team..teamates etc etc.......these are what have made him his riches...hes not being treated like a slave at work...hes got it great....if he was a bit of a twat but knuckled down then i would have quoted your sentiment.

    Or you could say that due to his talent he has already exceeded any expectations he might have had about his life. I don't know tbh OS George Best springs to mind, football fans regret for him but he looked at the positives. Who was it Parkinson? Where did it all go wrong George! To which he replied that he was at the time staying at the Dorchester with thousands of pounds thrown on the bed which he had just won on the tables a bottle of Dom Perignon on ice and Miss World just coming out the bathroom. It's all relative!

    Whilst Balotelli had his funny moments, I never liked this "oh Mario..." attitude from the media and pundits, especially when he did things like stamp on Parker's head. Had that have been another player there would have been far more outrage but he was able to get away with it for the most part. Never treated as one of the most dislikable players in the league when he was frequently getting sent off, putting in awful challenges, diving and frequently throwing strops on the pitch and not playing properly for the team that paid him so much.

    I'm glad the pantomime act has moved abroad so we don't have to hear people fawning over every stupid thing he does.

    He's the footballing equivalent of Boris Johnson - a complete and utter **** that people believe has entertainment value, which distracts from what a nasty piece of work they actually are.

    Agree or disagree with his ways, we need colourful people like him in life, if only to show us how not to be.

    Apart from the darts, which may have been trivial, he's done no harm to anyone.
