Welsh FA apologises to Beckham

The Football Association of Wales has apologised to David Beckham after Goldie Lookin Chain dedicated a song insulting Victoria Beckham at a England-Wales game.

According to The Mirror, Welsh soccer chiefs have apologised to David Beckham because Goldie Lookin Chain insulted his wife when they provided the pre match entertainment at the recent England-Wales game. GLC dedicated a rendition of new single 'Your Missus Is A Nutter' to Victoria Beckham. Lyrics from the song include the line: "Fighting with bouncers and flashing her bits, after two flaming sambucas she don't care who she hits."

The Football Association of Wales said it was "horrified". Secretary General David Collins said: "People may say it was meant as a joke and we're being fuddy-duddies. But we don't see it like that." It's less the phrase "fuddy-duddies" and more the phrase "well, what did you expect?" that springs to mind, to be honest.

Anyway, GLC have given their response. And here it is. How's that for reportage? "The Beckhams should be honoured that we dedicated our performance to them as an act of friendship and respect, in what could have been in 'sporting terms' a political hotbed. We are currently thinking of dedicating our next single to Geri Halliwell, we hope that this will not cause an equally unexpected and misconstrued outcry".
