  Andy I am not making assumptions about you or casting allegations and I am sorry if you took it that way. I was having a general say about the thread it's self, in that it is not the first time there has been a let's have a go about the game of football and footballers in general.
  
  Yes I agree footballers at the top are far too over paid and football is bringing a lot of the problems on its self with clubs folding etc and with young men having so much money they get above themselves. However it is not all footballers and it is not all Clubs, this thread is generalising and started by having a go at one of the very good ambassadors of the game both for England and within the world of football.
  
  So my gripe if you like is for people to have ago at Becks just because he has become rich through the game, I think if any of us were as good at a sport as he is and could have made the same financial gain then we would have grasped it, just as he has. It is not always what you get out of life, but what you do when you have got it. I know the news has gone on and on about his operation but is that his fault, truth is known he would more than likely would have just liked to have had the opp and gone home the same as the rest of us.
  
  I know one thing I have rather have a sports person who has got rich through their own efforts than politicians who have got rich by fiddling the tax payer and there were a lot of them, but we do not generalise and say every politician is crooked.
  
  By the way in case you have not realised I love the game, I used to go to watch West Ham but for me now it is grass roots football every time, you will see me at Crabble watching the Whites, I am there every game.
