The player who got hit has apparently lost hearing in that ear and is out for three months.
The players who attacked the cunt should have been knighted, not sent off.
The match was abandoned, unsurprisingly.

Newcastle are to rename St James' Park as the Sports Direct Arena as they look to sell the naming rights to their stadium.
The Magpies hope to follow fellow Premier League clubs Arsenal and Manchester City by licensing the naming rights to the ground which has been their home since 1886.
St James' Park, which has a capacity of over 52,000, could join Emirates Stadium and the Etihad Stadium in adopting the name of an external backer if the plans announced today come to fruition.
Until the club can find a sponsor to buy the naming rights the ground will be named after owner Mike Ashley's sports retail company.
Newcastle originally planned to allow sponsors to link their brand to St James' Park but that idea, put forward in 2009, is now replaced by the offer to purchase full naming rights.
Deliver success
Newcastle managing director Derek Llambias said: ''Our aim for Newcastle United is to continue to deliver success for the fans and everyone associated with the club. We must make this club financially self-sufficient in order to deliver that success.
"To grow sustainably and allow us to invest in our future, we will need to rely increasingly heavily on commercial income.
"These are very difficult economic times and the board have a responsibility to maximise all revenue streams for the benefit of the club.
"Stadium rebranding offers a lucrative way for clubs to secure significant additional income.
"When we initially launched our plans at the end of 2009, we invited sponsors to attach their brand to that of St James' Park.
"However, it has become clear that in order to make the proposition as commercially attractive as possible, a potential sponsor must be given the opportunity to fully rebrand the stadium.''
Opportunity
Llambias added that a shirt sponsorship deal might also be available to any company interested in taking on the naming rights of the stadium.
"Naming the stadium the Sports Direct Arena helps up to showcase the opportunity to interested parties,'' he said.
"We are now actively seeking a long-term sponsor wishing to acquire full naming rights for the stadium.
"Our shirt sponsorship deal with Northern Rock will also expire at the end of this season, which presents would-be sponsors with the opportunity to acquire both the naming rights and shirt sponsorship deals.''

Mike Ashley.
Just when they might have a solid foundation, he can't help himself but sabotage it.
Rambo in the team GB kit.
Also, the kit will go on sale with a RRP of £52.
Would love it if they go on a losing streak now. Those Geordies will go fucking mental!Originally Posted by McNamara That Ghost...

Its very likely they could as well... dont they play Chelsea, City in the coming weeks?
Yeah, Citeh away, Man Utd away, Chelsea at home.
They will take 1 point from those 3 games.
They can name it what they want but I don't know any Geordies who will call it anything other than St James Park. We can't be far off from renaming the teams now, Exxon Mobil Liberators vs Sainsbury Scalpers (or Man Utd vs Arsenal for the fuddy-duddys)
