    Under instruction don't you think? Not condoning what he did (particularly the play-acting Premiership player-style), but I'm pretty sure Barnsley ball-boys would take their time returning the ball if we had a chance of getting to a Cup Final.

    Good on him i say. Chelsea are experts at slowing the game down, time wasting and play acting. They finally met their match hahaha

    I'd ban ball-boys from the pitch-side altogether. Total waste of space. Half the time they're fast asleep and then they purposely waste time if their team is winning. Never had em when I was a kid and don't remember having to wait for a ball unless it was booted over the Brewery stand. Only place I'd have 'em is sat in the empty stands.

    I remember a few years ago at Bramall Lane when they employed the multi ball retrieval system up to the point that united scored late on in the match and all the balls that the ball boys had mysteriously dissapeared and were down to retrieving the match ball. Cheating Swine!

    I think Sheffield u have been fined for it before. As should swansea, that last night was as blatant as it gets.

    Multi ball is a whole different debate and it is shocking. Similar at wolves and loads of other clubs. Once go in front they vanish.

    First time l've seen it, is that it??? Does it look different from another angle because from that angle it looks like the player is trying to kick the ball from under his body to retrieve it. "Ah Ah he touched me.." What a drama queen country we live in.
