Balotelli charged over 'stamp'

2012-01-23T19:53:00.002Z

Manchester City's Mario Balotelli has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association following an incident against Tottenham on Sunday.

The 21-year-old's injury-time penalty gave City a 3-2 win, but earlier he appeared to stamp on Scott Parker.
Following a dismissal earlier this season Balotelli faces a four-match ban, but any unsuccessful appeal could result in a longer suspension.
Joleon Lescott will not be punished after a clash with Younes Kaboul.
Lescott caught Kaboul in the face with his forearm in a separate incident at the Etihad Stadium.
Balotelli, who has until 1800 GMT on Wednesday to respond to the charge, came on as a 65th-minute substitute against Spurs.
He was booked for a foul on Benoit Assou-Ekotto, but after escaping punishment from referee Howard Webb following his clash with Parker, the striker was fouled by Ledley King in the final minute of added time and converted the resulting penalty.
If he accepts his charge, Balotelli will miss Wednesday's Carling Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool at Anfield.

The second casaulty in Premier league managment

2012-01-08T19:07:00.004Z

We was the second manager this season to be sacked or as they like to say these days "leave with mutual consent".
The casualty this time was Niel Warnock. QPR are holding onto a flakey 17th position after only getting 17 points from 20 games. Well if you put all yer faith in some one like Joey Barton making him skipper and all what the hell do you expect.
So all eyes are now fixed on who's next to get the bullet. Steve Keane seems to safe even though he's crap at being a manager but the Venky's owners don't seem to wont to pay the compensation pay if they sack him. Owen Coyle is also under the cosh but Id like to see him stay in the Premier league very good manager in my opinion. Martinez? no the owners like him and again he isnt a bad manager some teams you cant blame the manager you have to blame the players for being rubbish, Bolton and Wigan spring to mind.
Managerial changes at this point in the season is never a good idea and very risky. I have no idea who'd wont to take on QPR and save them from the drop.
