didn't madrid reckon they got their transfer fee back for him in a few months in selling beckham stuff

like it or not, he, and his mrs, are highly marketable

Why does that quote have my name on it?

I really don't have a lot of time for the guy and don't particularly want to defend him. I'm glad he left United and we got away from that was surrounding him. He should be ashamed for the way he manipulated his way out of OT.

However, 99% of footballers are greedy @#%&!s and don't see why Beckham should be any different. Given the opportunity to become a face in the States (which is what Posh wants) and earn 70k a day (!!!) and have one last pay day (however much money he has already) I can't really think badly of him for that. Fair £#%&!s to him.

I wouldn't be knowing, it should say dodger

is it 500,000 a week sterling or dollars?

that that it matters either way, it's still a bloody fortune.

fair play to him. he was excellent for united and it was right for him to move on to madrid. but what a final payday

why have I quoted myself when you said it

I think it's because I quoted Dodger in my post, but the quote didn't work properly. Oh well. I'm fine with what he said, I'll pass it off as my own.

Druggy

Heard an interesting rumour that the ridiculous amount of money Becks will be receiving is partly financed by a major film company in the US and contracts him to two films during his stay in the US.

Makes a lot of sense, both in the destination of the transfer and the ludicrous amount of cash he is receiving.

Are you David Icke?

utter %@#$&!s

MUFC USA is the angle

Sorry, up here in the cold North we are unaware of this Icke person you refer to.

As a footballer, yes.

One more £#%&!ing Beckham thread, one more, and I'm going postal.
