We got a mention in the Guardians daily football email piss take 'the fiver'

And David Beckham and LA Galaxy will turn out against glamorous New Zealand outfit Wellington Phoenix in December. Goldenswingers has to play at least 55 minutes as part of the deal. Phoenix owner Terry Serepisos said: "It's crucial David Beckham takes the field. If for some unforeseen circumstance he gets injured prior to the game then the game will be rescheduled at a later date."

Rather tame from 'the fiver' for a change.
 
Nice to see they managed to use "Wellington" which certain media outlets seem to keep forgetting.

I'm slightly disappointed!

"Glamorous", eh? They've obviously seen pictures of the topless YF posse from the Sydney game.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.
