Mario Balotelli argues with police after being fined


MILAN (AP) -- New AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli has been involved in an argument with police after parking illegally on Thursday.

According to reports, Balotelli, who was on his way to collect friends, was told to move his car when he stopped in a no-parking zone in front of Milan's Linate airport.

The Italy striker did so, but then parked again illegally. Balotelli was then fined by the traffic police for not having his insurance documents on him.

Balotelli reacted badly, getting into a heated discussion with them, and passing police had to intervene to calm the situation.

Balotelli returned to Italy last week in a ?20 million ($27 million) transfer from Manchester City.

He scored both goals in a 2-1 win over Udinese on Sunday.

It would usually mean that if ACMilan decided they were to sell Balotelli, they would have to ask us if wanted to buy him, before anyone else. It could also mean that we could buy him for a fee, already agreed.

Of course this would depend on Balotelli actually wanting to sign for us, but if he did, then we would get a clear run at it, before anyone else was allowed to bid.


Actually if they try to sell him and agree on a price with anyone, they first have to offer him to City for the same amount.

I was kind of relieved to see Mario go, for all our sakes, but seeing that, I already feel like bringing him back.

How can these people get away with this kind of shit in modern times?

Fucking nazis.


He was in Milan and he's gone back. He knew what he was walking into inmost of Italy, especially the north, so I have no sympathy for him. Despite our shit weather, crap restaurants and inability to drive, he's suffered no racism in England.

Can we please be done with this Mario business ... He's gone and none of our business anymore ... and whatever we've seen of him, both on and off the pitch, I say good riddance ... unless he grows up (yes, mentally too), learns to actually give a shit on the pitch and then comes back and puts on a sky blue shirt again ... well till then, I say again, good riddance!

If no fee is agreed & they received an offer & decided to accept it, they would have to give us the chance to match it, but if they decided to invite bids, they would just tell us.

Often though, the buy back fee is agreed in the clause.

Man he looked good at the end of milan v calgari. His movement and finishing were class. Only because of great keeping did he not single handedly win the match. Thats the mario we wanted to see here. You do wonder if he was able to play more if he would have been better.

He looked good when he first signed for us, he has a short attention span though.

Mario often made many clever runs in between the opposing centre backs and created space for himself. However, we very rarely spotted his moves and maintained the slow build up pass and move tactic which often saw him sulking after a while.

I don't think he was very suited to the close control forward play like Aguero and Tevez are. He's a striker that you build your team around playing him as the main man up front and get your midfielders to pass early into space between defenders for him to run into. Now hes back in Italy I could see him getting 20 a season doing that.

FFS it sounds like mario was racially abused yet again. this time by fuckhead inter fans.



from ESPN:

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti expressed his disappointment at the racist chanting aimed at Mario Balotelli during the Nerazzurri's game with Chievo Sunday.


Former Inter striker Balotelli joined AC Milan from Manchester City during the January transfer window and has made an immediate impact on his return to Serie A, scoring three goals in two games for Massimiliano Allegri's side.


But he found himself the target of a section of Inter fans last night who directed racist abuse at him as their side beat the Flying Donkeys 3-1.


Moratti was made aware of the chanting and outlined his hope there would not be a repeat during the Milan derby on Feb. 24.


"I was told about it because I couldn't make out clearly what they were saying. I'm very sorry about that," Moratti told Inter's official website. "I'm very sorry and I really hope it doesn't happen during the derby."


It is the second time Balotelli has been the victim of racism on his return to Italy.


The first saw AC Milan vice president Paolo Berlusconi -- the younger brother of club owner Silvio -- filmed at a political meeting in Monza near Milan using a racist slur to describe Balotelli.


That led to accusations of hypocrisy at the Rossoneri just four weeks after Silvio Berlusconi praised midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng for walking off the pitch after he was racially abused during a friendly against Pro Patria

So their response to a racist issue is to express sorrow and hope that it doesn't happen again - this is why there's issues in Italy. Way to handle it you fucling dick.

That's a bit harsh, being banned because you called yourself Balotelli.


got banned because i ripped u guys all apart.


Dude,
I rarely do abuse someone for the sake of it.
I may happen to make it, very few times, when I feel wound up, righteously or not.

For You, and just for You, I feel I can make, wholeheartedly, an exception to my own rule:

[scroll]GO AND FUCK YOUR MAMA's RED ARSE OFF, YOU BITTER DELUDED BRAINLESS SCUM FUCKTARD![/scroll]

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...


In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!
