England team donate all sponsorship money.......

[sha66y]

....... to children in need, cancer research, help the aged, and any other good cause in need of money...........

an announcement by that t**t in charge of the PFA , to this effect......

 would certainly get the nation on its feet, we dont have a team of wannabees no more, they are all established multi-millionaires and certainly dont need any more money ...................

national pride would be restored in the blink of an eye!

good causes would be back on the agenda, the PM`S could get good mileage out of the National Teams personal financial sacrifice.........

i would even \"doff my cap\" to players i dont like or care about....and i guess a lot of greatness would follow!!!!

but they wont, and David Davies (think thats him) will try to justify why they all should benefit financially for their collective endeavours........w**ker!

thats me supporting S.Korea then!!

Even worse than that is how much the players are being paid tomorrow in the Socceraid match at Old Trafford.
Even \"celebrities\" who are there to publicise themselves will be getting a minimum of £30k to play.
Now how hypocritical is that!!!

Again somebody pontificating about something they know little about, the England players have been donating all England monies to charity for some years now, plus David Davies retired 5 years ago. Don't you mean Gordon Taylor?

I though that was just for the bonuses that were introduced?, an incentive for them to go out and win things for financial gain and not for the pride of their country.

Can't blame em really, are there any proud English people anymore that don't just use the national flag as some badge of honour? They are what they are over paid footballers, the South Korea squad will be earning considerably more than the average wage of their fellow countryman, infact the ratio's could be even greater seeing how bad it is in South Korea at the moment.

Roll on August, World cup my arse......

Is this the right thread to be pointing out..........and there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
