No...and to be honest, I didn't miss him in the first place.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking.

No.

The weekly circus and negatives of dealing with his "antics" far outweighed the positives he actually brought on the football pitch.

We don't care what you think our antipodean curmudgeon....we miss him


Then the question shouldn't have been asked. And "we"? Are you speaking for everyone now, thank god...tired of having my own opinion. We'll just leave you to fill in the site with posts, get on it.



lol! Opinions can be burdensome...don't worry, consider yourself liberated

you miss his dirty girl wife you cheeky fucler.

I miss Balo. A circus sideshow, but everyone needs some rocknrolla. Mancini fucked him up, and had some Catholic guilt about it so let him leave for Milan.

cheers

You should follow Milan in your spare time.

Although fond of Mario I don't really miss him too much as he never really felt like a key player for us.
Hard not to like him for being daft as a brush and you could not beat him for off field entertainmnet value but he was just so hit and miss that i often found myself very frustrated with the lack of consistency in his performances.

No.

He had to go just for our managers own sanity.Was a damaging relationship for both of them.

Think Balo is a great player and a special talent,however i don't think he will ever achieve the iconic status his talent deserves because of his lack of maturity, i think a lot of it has to do with him being a bit mentally challenged and because off that it will always get in the way of him achieving greatness.

Discipline is a big problem for him.

Yes, for who he is when he is focused. Yes because he cracks me up. Yes because we have played 2-3 matches with NO strikers on the bench. No because we play better without him, and he plays better out of England.
