I don't have any hate for Beckham

He's never been shy of taking money from wherever at every opportunity. That's his perogative, though it's a bit hypocritical when he's always been a flag waver for gay rights etc. On this occasion he probably should've thought twice with all the furore around it. It's not like he needs the money. Maybe he'll donate a chunk afterwards. Who knows.

My irritation is entirely with fifa. They're rotten to the core on this one.
