I loved the way you put that!!!...............
........"A Manchester team of some sort"??!!.....its the most famous sports team in the world! the story you read will no doubt be about the departure of their player David Beckham who has joined Real Madrid. Beckham and his wife (a former spice girl) are major "celebs" this side of the pond and across europe and asia, the Japs are obsessed with them.
Speaking personally I cant fucking stand them or Manu, they make me want to vomit. There is something especially unpleasant about absurdly over paid sports stars who like to rub every ones noses in it with constant and spectacular displays of appalingly bad taste. The Beckhams just cant resist any exuse for self publicity (as long as there is money in it) Even though they are worth many millions, they still could not even get married without selling the whole ceremony to a magazine. They just make me want to puke, good riddance to them I say.
