David’s Beckham’s Golden Boots And Centurion Chic
DAVID Beckham is to mark is 100th football match for England by equipping his footy kit with greaves and a feathered helmet. Football fans will also see Becks wearing his new range of Centurion Soccer Skirts (RRP £34.99).
Beckham’s self-promotion sees him returned to the squad for England’s game in Paris. No, not in Disneyland, but in the Stade de France, where Day-vid will play a French side in a friendly.
No sign of Mickey Mouse in these proceedings. This is the real deal, a fitting tribute to Beckham’s post-Manchester United career.
The Sun says Beckham will wear a pair of golden boots. A source tells the paper: “He’s an obsessive collector of football memorabilia and these boots will take pride of place in his collection.”
While other players may mark a career milestone with a signed shirt or cheery wave to the fans, Beckham collects his own boots and puts them in a museum.
Forget the tears, the largely ineffectual performances in three World Cups and two European Championships and look at the boots - so bright David can see his face in them…

Count me in for David & Victoria too. They can poke fun at themselves, an all-too-rare trait these days, and despite some of their gaudy trimmings I think they’re generally far healthier role models than 95% of the other ’stars’ that fill the newspapers and magazines.

I’m glad David got his 100th cap. While he’s involved in what passes for football in the MLS he can at least think “Well I may be playing on a pub team, and I’m married to a deranged stick insect but at least I have 100 England caps!”
Well done Dave, that’s 100 more than I have.

Leave the boy alone. I love him….. and (shock horror) I also like Victoria!
IMO both work hard, have worked at their marriage, still married, three kids by the same parents, they don’t do drugs, fight outside nightclubs etc..
All in all good role models I’d have thought.
Compare please to Kerry Katona, Jade Goody, Cheryl Cole et al. all so beloved by the celeb mags.
