Yeah Psycho done well to leave him out, it's going to be pathetic and having swollenballs would only make it even more of a circus. Had he not been injured in 2010 he would have been in the World Cup team just to bump up his appearances. A fella who at the time was hopping from Milan to LA with an odd cameo show at London Colney...... and we wonder why England havn't won anything for 46 Years! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I am against the grain here but I think Beckham should have been included.

He would be good enough to be a sub, not a 90 minute player, but he can still cross well and guide the younger players.

He travelled a lot and put work in to help get the Olympics and World Cup, and he has been snubbed in favour of Craig Bellamy?

Justified to pick Giggs and Richards.

I do not hate Beckham like others do, he never seemed to carry on as if he was rubbing it in when Man Utd won and he always worked hard for them and England.

I do not think he was crazy to go to the USA, he was looking at the bigger picture of helping spark interest in the sport in a country where it should have taken hold years ago.

That said I would have liked him to play for us for a couple of seasons before heading to LA, the deal was done but supposedly he wanted too high a salary which is possibly something he will regret when he looks back?
Then again he has made serious dough out there.

When all is said and done, he had the goldenballs to tell Ferguson what he thought of him.

Didnt Beckham go out to SIngapore in 2005 when the bids were being announced and do a lot to help to bring the games to London. Surely thats merits an inclusion just as a thank you to him because lets face it, Team GB have no hope at winning the GOld :lol:

Beckham is just a prima Donna *word censored*. Glad he never got picked, just to shut his smug face up

Beckham gets whoared out by the goverment when we need him then when we dont gets ditched..its a piss take he should flip them all the bird.

As for not being picked its a kin disgrace and dumped for Giggs..thats fine but Bellamy ffs do me a favour Beckham is and has been 10 times the player Bellamy ever was and ever will be and fat boy Richards, the same bloke who could not be arsed to get off his fat arse to be on standby for the euros as he thinks he's to good? well Mancini didnt think so thats why he dumped him for the PL run in...

Beckham has been the best RM England have had in years and we still have not replaced him.

The bloke deserved a send off and the olympics was fitting, a one off where knowbody really cares.
