David Beckhams immature and bullion Manchester United attempt was a bucket of tosh - the usually means he indeed supports is himself

Touching, wasnt it? Watching that loyal, diehard United hero DavidBeckham getting the roaring welcome so thoroughly deserved ofManchesters prodigal son brought tears to the uncynical eye.

But not, Im afraid, to the cynical like mine.

Beckham keeps telling us United is, and always has been, the onlyclub for him. And the inhabitants of Old Trafford seem to happily goalong with this tosh.

When the reality is that he walked out on United at the peak of hispowers for the riches of Real Madrid, then walked out on Madrid for theeven greater riches of Hollywood, and now cheats on LA Galaxy wheneverhe can with AC Milan, purely to keep himself in the World Cup frame,where England glory could bring the greatest riches of all.

Compared with genuinely loyal United heroes like Giggs, Scholes andNeville, Beckhams been a treacherous, money-grabbing, club-hopping,fame-hungry, egotistical little weasel who likes nothing better thanmaking everything all about HIM.
