When A Ball Boy Attacked!

A frankly, crazy-assed ball boy caused the abandonment of a Premier League match in Kumasi, last week when he laid into the ref with a football boot. The lad raced on and attacked the referee after the home side’s star striker - the ball boy’s favourite player - was given offside. The official was so badly injured the game was called off with 16 minutes remaining and tens of thousands of fans had to shuffle off home.

Police are still searching for the fugitive thug having arrested his mate in a case of mistaken identity.
