I love it when journalists do this - wonder if he is still in a job? :lol:


Oops. He was either going to be a genius or totally wrong. Unfourtunately he would appear to be the latter. Still....they might still finish fifth :P

I heard Los Angeles this morning... Not that they can play fotball but nor can he :wink:


I think people are writing him off too early...


The difference is that Beckham's made all the money he needs to make from football, and may not be that interested in continuing a career in the sport... the impression is that he seems to have been more interested in other things for a while now. And the rules on foreign players in the US have been changed to fit in with players like him. It all sort of adds up.

Meanwhile I'm not going to comment on his fitness. In any sense. Though MissWalshy's comment confirms that football doesn't need to be his sole career option. :wink:


I think the amount of money he has made will have a huge bearing on where he goes. Can't see him coming back to Bolton or Portsmouth or somewhere simillar (No offence intended to those clubs but what I mean is the boy likes the Glamour 8) )



He won't be coming down here (Portsmouth), glamour is in extremely short supply at Fratton Park, but then again thats how we like it !

Mark WAFC - well done to the Wigan fans that came down on Saturday. £30 for a 3rd round FA cup match from an open end is scandalous


A couple of my mates made the trip - one is still off work with a cold! didnt bother myself, went down last season and we never take the FA cup serious so you kinda knew the result beforehand


Fair play to them, long way to come for a game like that. Although we've probably got the most decrepit ground in the Premier I still love Fratton Park (doubt many away fans think the same though!).

Came up to yours last year at the end of the season when we stayed up. Brilliant weekend, on the gargle all day , stayed over Saturday night. Were you there that day ?

I know what you mean, mate. Got a sneaking feeling we will be 'concentrating on the league' after the next round !


Yes was at the JJB when you stayed up, after the Cup final last year we went on wind-down and all but gave up! i think you might have enjoyed it more than us...did you stay over in sunny Wigan?

Fratton Park was great last year, we stayed down there for the night in Pompey and won 2-0 which put us 2nd behind in Chelsea in November!!

ANOTHER girlie moment.. whilst studying Media at college (yeah I know, don't say it!) I decided to base my project on Question of Sport..

At this time I was watching and researching every single bastard thing I could possibly do.. and I SERIOUSLY fell in love with Ally.

Thought he was well gorgeous. :-| How old is he? :shock:



:lol:
I like life.

We stayed on the outskirts of Wigan, nice hotel (MacDonald Park hotel ?). Can't remember going back there that night though and woke up with a lump of turf in my pocket from the pitch invasion !
Spent most of that evening drinking around the town centre after going to a couple of pubs around the ground, the Wigan Pier and then back to the biggish pub by the station. Great night had by all. Like you say, we did rather enjoy ourselves that day !

Ah yes, I remember the game at Fratton now. You wiped the floor with us that day. How did you find Pompey for a night on the lash ?

Sounds like you stayed at the Kilhey Court Hotel - i live near there! Tis indeed a nice joint.

The Swan? or Brunells? are both near the station and the Orwell (at Wigan Pier) is a fixture for away fans walking from the station to the ground!

We stayed not far from Southsea when we went down there, an old big hotel on the front - a Best Western one?? Not sure what it was called now, if pissed it down all weekend i know that for sure - few pubs near the ground we went in were a bit iffy in that there was a group of about 8 lads and they seemed to take offence to us drinking in there - the last thing we wanted was trouble! after the game we went round the dock area (i think??) quite olde world ale houses - was a good night!
