I wonder why he never decided to go to West Ham, Blackburn or City?

A nice retirement for him anyway, beats Sunday league

That rules out a return to the England side. Still, who would want to turn down that kind of money? Craaaaazy. £492k a week isn`t it?

The really crazy part is there isn`t any mention of them getting any proportion of his image rights, which are probably worth another £10million aswell.

And don`t forget all the money that Posh brings into the household...........

then again, maybe not ;)

as an added bonus he is pretty much garanteed 1st team football, and could end his career as a permananet 1st teamer and star player, doubt he would have done that in Spain, or here.

$1,000,000 / week.
FFS the lunatics have taken over the phuqin asylum.

TBH I am disgusted at both Sky and the Beeb. Golden baws and his vacuous, talentless and pouting troll of a wife splattered on each and every news bulletin. Yes my friends, the world has gone crazy when this pair of phannies are deemed the top news story.

PS "It is not for the money" Aye phuqin right David :D :D

Personally I think it`s great. I think Beckham has been treated quite harshly over the last few years (not forgetting the way English fans lambasted for virtually a year after being sent off against Argentina), and I think he has his head screwed on and knows what he wants. The only downside I can see is that Victoria Beckham will think she stands a chance of becoming a Hollywood legend now...

Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way, turn...

And those who dance will spin and turn,
And those who wait will wait no more,
And those who talk will hear the words,
And those who see will fade and die,
And those who laugh will surely fall,
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall...

Apparently he`s getting a normal wage of $9m a year (about what he got at real madrid) - it`s the estimated image rights which bump it up to the £130m.

The amount of money he generates and receives doesn`t bother me - it`s just the fact that the real greats like Zidane, Pele, Cryuff, Maradona etc will never get near this figure. But I suppose this goes for any walk of life.

Anyway, I guess come the end of the season, he officially ceases to be a footballer.

So Beckham isn`t a `real great`?

I`m happy for him - it`s good to see an England sportsman doing so well worldwide.
