Ref justice may spark Mario exit

MARIO BALOTELLI’S agent has warned his player could quit English football over what he believes is unfair treatment from referees.

The controversial Manchester City striker is facing a four-match ban after being charged with violent conduct by the FA following a clash with Tottenham’s Scott Parker on Sunday.

The club look likely to reluctantly accept the charge and that will mean the striker’s ban will kick in straight away and he will miss tonight’s Carling Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool at Anfield, where City will try to overturn a 1-0 first leg deficit.
