Why would he spend ANY time in front of a budgie?
I seemed to remember I'd had this exchange on NSC before. Well, sure enough:-
So, @Easy 10 - we'll do this again somtime in 2025?
Is he secretly Scottish?
Are you calling me queer?
Now, call me naïve, but I had always assumed BW had some African (possibly via the West Indies, and/or south London) heritage.

He's just having some fun with his image. Completely harmless and I expect his wife loves the look. I would love to know why he withdrew from the England squad though. I genuinely have no idea.

He’s still a whipper snapper
we all have had shite haircuts, many wish we still could.
leave the the kid alone, he was great for us, pissed off Leeds, we got a ton of dollar for him, why the need to have a dig, we’d love him back at the moment.

Doesn't seem to be in Southgates plans at all. Now 26 and not made a competitive start for England.
After his departure from the WC there were press articles alleging a bust up with Steve Holland, GS's assistant. It's only a guess, but maybe they're true and neither want anything to do with the other. Would explain it.

This is complete speculation and alleged.
Apparently he didn't want to hang out with the rest of the team after training, etc. When the assistant coach called him out on it he explained that he's an introvert and prefers his own company than spending it with others.
He was told that he should be watching the oppositions previous games, etc instead of playing FIFA in his hotel room. He was then asked questions about upcoming opponents players, etc after they'd played the previous day and he's alleged to have said that he didn't watch the game.
This led to a big bust up and him leaving the camp and flying home.
I'm fairness to him he does come across as quite quiet and fair play to him if he's honest and prefers his own company or a smaller circle of friends. It's like being at work and being the person who always declines going out after work, work parties, etc. You can't force someone to be something that there not. He should be judged solely on his talent, which is a massive loss for the National team.
Disclaimer - all of the above is of course rumour and conjecture and has no basis on fact or otherwise. If Mr Whites legal representative's happen to read this, I personally love Benjamin and his wacky hairstyles x
Because he's misunderstood the term budgie smugglers ?Why would he spend ANY time in front of a budgie?
IF that’s true then that is pretty shocking behaviour. Watching and learning about the opposition is part of his job, you can’t turn up to the England squad and then not do the work against the teams you are playing. It would certainly explain why he’s never been called up again.
