Why are the mainstream media giving them all this attention over absolutely nothing but a family tiff.
Unless of course it’s a new marketing ploy to keep them in the headlines…?

I’ve even got the dogs barking at them when they appear on the box…the wife is not impressed.

The media probably think we care about them, when we don't as we are too busy with our own lives to care about an ex-footballer falling out with his kids!!

It's utterly stupid. It's made up Bollox, no-one I know cares and the amount of money these people generate is obscene.

I remember Beckham turning up at the Queen's viewing thing waiting in line just like a normal person! This would have been meticulously choreographed and planned by numerous flunkies for days beforehand and then of course the cameras just happened to notice him. TBH I think I'd rather spend an hour chatting to a tramp than Beckham, I think it would make a more interesting conversation - there are some very polite well mannered tramps knocking around York at the moment.

Because it’s what the majority of the public like to read as well as watch tv reality shows.

David Beckham was one of the better footballers of his generation but won nowt with England. Victoria was the fifth best singer in the Spice Girls. I've never understood brand Beckham.

Didn’t realise there was that many dumb people in the country.

Yep, very talented player. I saw him once live, some of the passes he picked out and executed were sublime. But that's in the past now.

I saw him a few times live, I was behind the goal at Old Trafford when he scored the free kick against Greece, that got us to the 2002 world cup finals. A very talented player, but not sure we need to hear about his arguments with his kids.

'Brand Beckham'...Keeping up with the Joneses with the rich and famous comes at a heavy price over there..Maybe him and Harry need to have a word in their wives ears...Haven't they made enough to clear off somewhere nice where nobody bothers them? :roll:

It's a complete load of bollocks- I'd wager a few quid that they're all mates and it's just a publicity stunt to keep them in the tabloids. Absolute nonsense. There is nothing more, to write about this vacuous pair, after he got his much angled for gong off Charlie. Think that's why they keep speculating about the Spice girls getting back together- for a few more column inches. I just wish they would fuck off and live their lives as every other normal person does. I'm surprised he hasn't unveiled a new tough sticker recently - maybe that's next month! :roll:

Labour probably asked the Beckham's to create a diversionary story to distract people's attention away from the shitshow they are currently creating.

You can avoid reading about them but no matter what tv channel you watch they will be along at some point if not Prince Andrew oops he is not a Prince any more or Prince Harry or some other celeb but apparently it must boost tv viewing figures or they wouldn’t show it.

wonder if the lasses have the control in their hands all night as they are the ones that love that sort of thing. most blokes don,t like the ads that annoy us more than them.

A business marriage that's produced stupid named kids to keep the family business ticking over.

Like all these types, it’s vital they have to keep themselves in the news headlines, what purpose they serve I have no idea.
Anyone on remotely interested in the shenanigans this soap opera of a family must lead a sad life.

no wonder there are more gays about. one look at her body would put me off lasses for life if they were all like her. compare and contrast that slapper to the proper female celebs of the past we had dreams of all sorts about them.
