Beckham resigns

[tcm]

Heyho. I think he only shone with fre kicks in WC cos others like Lampard etc didn't perform. More Aaron Lennon, more speed.

I can't see why he can resign..surely the captaincy is assigned by the manager?

 

[BrendanS]

manoeuvring by spin masters?

Step down as Captain, avoid much of the heat back home for not winning, then new manager comes on board and either sends him down to ranks, or asks him to stay as captain and he reconsiders........

tho now I'm starting to sound like one of the many conspiracy theorists around here

Good let out for both him and new manager

 

[tcm]

Yes you are a bit. I think he understands capt a big deal, theyscrewed up and he's decided to carry the biggest can. No prob, no spin, imho.

Unrelated, he didn't take a penalty?....

 

[bbg]

He had already been substituted ...
