When it came to football Beckham was what is sometimes called a "one trick pony" - great at free kicks and long passes, not much cop at anything else.

I think this picture sums this charade up pretty well.

Ibo, you said

"David has always conducted himself in the proper manner.When he was wrongly dropped from England he didn't complain,he kept his head down and improved his game"

Your right to a point, Yes he did keep his head down, and yes I thought he conducted himself in the proper manner, but some may just say I am selfish.

As to Victoria being a good mum, Yes your right she is. Met her tearing her hair out in Tesco's last year during a period of the "I want these ones mummy" from the kids.

She would never use the services of a nanny and spends most nights in with them.

You went on to say,

"Get up off your backsides and strive to be as successful in your own life".

I did get of my backside, it was David that wouldn't !

Both David and Victoria, hate the media coverage they get, they shy away from cameras when ever they can, they are always being photographed with their hands over their faces. Victoria hates being caught in the mornings without make up shooting down to the garage for milk.

Thanks for the third to last line 'Guest Rebecca' it's a perfect description. Made me laugh out loud, it's such an un-natural outline!

I'm happy for them to be happy wherever they are.

We all need to SMILE more, even if it is raining and someone out there is a bit more rich than you. There are many who are poorer.

America has done nothing to deserve them.

Some of you are being very cruel in what you say about David.

Yes I agree he talks as if he has a speech impediment, yes I accept there isn't a lot going on between his ears.

On the other hand he has great ball control and a master with his head.

I am not so fond of Victoria. Yes she has done a lot for raising money for famine relief. Any time she appears on television in a bikini, charities say telephone hot lines are inundated with donations.

She is loyal to David and soccer. She had both half's of a practice ball inserted in her chest three years ago.

I knew David very well as many of you are aware. In my opinion he will be excellent at the distribution of his balls in LA.

Yes he may be caught off side a few times, but he is always forgiven.

I am sure they are breathing a sigh of relief to get away from the miserable UK. After reading these comments, it is no wonder the Beckhams wanted to get away from such miserable fucks as some of the previous posters have shown themselves to be.

Some of you should take a look in the mirror before you start complaining about others! You whine about "reality" and "stars", yet you are the first to open your mouths to complain. Get a life and let others lead theirs, they aren't bothering you unless you let them.

It is good for soccer in the U.S. and a little Spice never hurt anyone.

Too late, Jacqui. Fox News covered them getting of the airplane, followed them to baggage claim and did the usual celebrity "let's hope they screw up royally" thing.
It has already started.

Both the Beckhams have aggresively courted publicity for many years now, aided and abetted by the lower echelons of the press. It would be difficult for any UKer not to kno0w who they are, whether interested in football or popp music, or not.

With the sort of blanket coverage this pair gets a lot of people get fed up with having the exploits of the Beckhams forever seeming to be of the greatest national importance. We are treated to this information whether we like it or not. Very much like Paris Hilton over here. I would guess that there would be a sizeable chunk of the population of the UK who would be glad not to hear anything more about their lives at all.

I just hope that, in the USA, their lives stay in the pages of magazines like Hello, rather than leaching into the general press and onto the TV news.

It is unpleasant to see such cattiness and spite here. David Beckham played some good games for England - some of which were literally to the point of exhaustion, as against Ecaudor in the World Cup. It is one thing to believe that his talent is overrated, it is another to take pot shots at him for any reason at all.
I would not want to be married to Victoria Beckham, but it seems to suit him fine. Good luck to both of them.
He is not likely to become one of the world's greatest academics - something he has in common with several of us Mudcatters. However, he comes over to me as basically kind and gentle. For God's sake, he is famous for chasing and wallopping footballs. If that does not interest you, you do not need to watch it. What harm has he done to anyone here to deserve this spite?
