well, it was inevitable, i guess.

david beckham has been sold to real madrid yesterday for about 33 million euros ($41 million US). man utd, well more appropriately, sir alex ferguson (manager), decided to get rid of beckham because, 1. he only has two years left on his contract and 2. he was getting too famous and gaining too much of a celebrity status for sir alex's liking.

so anyway, the sad thing about all this is that man utd is going on an american tour next month, and i won't be seeing beckham play. pity. i was rather looking forward to the march against some mexican team.

the only solace to this is that 1. barcelona didn't get beckham, and 2. he's still playing for the english side in international fixtures.




"beckham and owen. what a pair!"
