David Beckham

Austin FC had a slow news week due to the effects of the recent winter storm, so Landon and Jeremiah decided it was a good time to get nerdy and talk about Allocation Money, the MLS-iest thing MLS ever created. Topics discussed include: -What the heck are GAM and TAM? -How did this all get so complicated, and is it David Beckham's fault? -Rodney "Young Money" Redes confirmed by Precourt -Austin FC players raise money to help their new community -- Pitch in here -Bucket baths, bartering, and ...

In Part Two, Keegan goes into full Keegan mode, with the smiles broad as England take a 2-0 lead against Portugal in their first group match. The panel reflect on why David Beckham was right in his belief that it was a precarious lead as Portugal eventually cruised to an easier victory than the 2-3 scoreline suggests.After a 1-0 win over a ponderous Germany in which Keegan’s lack of tactical nous mattered less than his ability to motivate players, the epic drama concludes with the tragicomic defeat to Romania, Phil Neville’s impetuous late foul and the subsequent penalty leaving England, with Fowler, Owen and Scholes looking on from the bench, needing a goal that doesn’t come.In the epilogue, a miserable farewell to the miserable old Wembley Stadium sees Didi Hamann skid in a long-range winner and Keegan resign in the toilets, some players in tears and Keegan himself writing his obituary as an England manager - "I'm not up to it”. He may not have been, but Rob, Lee and Gary, with the perspective of 20 years, find that there’s much to commend about the lad from Doncaster whose heart was always to be found just below the T-shirt line we hear so much about these days.

Welcome to the sixth episode of your new favourite podcast - Glory Days of Gold. This episode is brought to you by My Sporting Blog and Jennifer Russell (@HairdressingPrincess). Recorded across two continents, Glory Days of Gold brings you a regular dose of East Fife FC and Scottish football chat, with a splattering of interesting interviews and fun segments thrown in along the way. Our guest this week is a man who may have only spent a short loan spell at East Fife, but who was taken to by the fans right away, Tam McManus. We take a journey through Tam's career that saw him play in Scotland, England, Ireland, and over the Atlantic for two spells in the US. The highs, the lows, the successes, and the regrets. There's some great stories along the way, including playing with Gazza, against David Beckham, playing in altitude for the first time, and best of all, his warm feelings for his time at Bayview. We delve into the current state of Scottish football and what needs to change, and find out why he doesn't like John Collins, yet champions what he could bring to improving the game here. There's some real honest talk in this and very enjoyable and refreshing it is too. Lee and Michael also look at all the East Fife related news from the past week, try to fix Scottish football, find out if current East Fife gaffer Darren Young fancies a chocolate digestive, and Cork band the Sultans of Ping FC feature in this week's Wavelength. Here's the rundown for the main segments from the episode:05.34: East Fife News of the Week - season confirmed, youth signings17.39: Tam McManus interview109.10: We try and fix Scottish football139.50: Anyone Fancy A Chocolate Digestive – Darren Young141.41: Wavelength - The Sultans of Ping FC - Give Him A Ball (and a yard of grass)

Suj & James present the #PremierLeagueSquadChallenge Here's the Rules that James abided by in an attempt to pick his squad on this weeks People's Poll Podcast: Select a squad of 25 players Must be cover in every position (eg 2 left backs) & must be 3 goalkeepers Players can only have played for 1 club in the Premier League No two players can be picked from the same Premier League club No two players can be picked from the same country A player must be picked from all of the current 20 Premier League clubs but doesn't have to be at that club now + from 5 previous Premier League clubs Each player must have a squad number between 1 & 25 & they must be assigned a number they wore for their club as a player For example you could select David Beckham as he has only played in the Premier League for one club, but you could not pick another Englishman or Manchester United player. He could be assigned the squad number of 7 or 24 ___________________________________________ Web: www.planetfpl.com Twitter: @PlanetFPLPod (James) / @sujanshah (Suj) Facebook: www.facebook.com/PlanetFPL Instagram: @planetfpl You Tube: www.youtube.com/planetfpl Learn more about your ad choices.

Josh Guesman from the Corner of the Galaxy podcast and blog comes into the devil's lair to talk about what it's like covering the LA Galaxy as a reporter. He gives us a glimpse into press coverage from MLS, what Zlatan is like as a person, how the MLS has grown since he started covering it in 2009, and where he thinks it's going in the next 10 years. We also ponder about what the LA Galaxy would look like if David Beckham never came. Then hop over to the El Traffico to talk about the new, exciting rivalry in LA. I'd also like to say that this man has a silky smooth radio voice and is a delight to listen to.

In this, the latest episode of Ramble Meets, Luke talks to ex-Sunderland and England player Micky Gray. Spotted by a Manchester United scout at age 13, Micky ended up playing in the Red Devils' academy with the likes of Ryan Giggs, Adrian Doherty, Paul Scholes and David Beckham before signing back with his hometown club Sunderland. Across a career spanning 18 years, from the low of missing the decisive penalty in the 1998 Championship Playoff Final to the high of representing his country, Micky takes us through a hugely interesting time playing football at the top level, including run ins with managers, fans, and future England captain Wayne Rooney. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Could Mike Ashley finally be about to sell Newcastle United? Rumours suggest it may be the case, but one of our number isn’t so sure. Where other rumours are concerned, Man United get all Moby as their class of ’99 turn it on at Old Trafford, and there are whisperings of a return to football for Big Weng. Poor old Sunderland suffer yet more heartache after another Wembley loss, while Charlton, Mike Dean’s Tranmere and Celtic are in dreamland. There’s also a look ahead to the Europa League final and a special mention for one Chris Wondolowski.

The good times continue for Man United as they make history in Europe by enjoyably mugging off PSG while their largely injured squad watched on from the sidelines (and internet). And, as well as looking back, we look forward to their trip to the Emirates, Crystal Palace and Brighton locking beaks in what may now become known as The Delayed Derby, while Neil Warnock tries to get in Southampton heads. Off the pitch, Robert Snodgrass has a lot of explaining to do, we learn that as well as a David Beckham statue there’s a David Beckham temple, and Ramble Baker Steve Hobbs makes a welcome return, with news of an opportunity.

Good news: It's bonus Ramble time! Injuries. Every World Cup has them. Nobody likes them but they’re simply a part of the game. Sometimes their impact can define a nation’s tournament, while the panic over the loss of a key man can all be for nothing after a Lazarus-like recovery. Here we look at the effects of injuries to David Beckham, Franco Baresi and Neymar, via the usual nonsense of rubbing photos to cure a broken foot, Jim’s recently discovered internal udders and Barry “Basher” Davies. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

David Beckham is not short of iconic moments for England, but perhaps the most memorable and important came when he was sent off against Argentina for kicking out at Diego Simeone in the 1998 World Cup.
