Good friend of our family lost his wife several years ago. He was very old school and just went to work to earn money and everything else was done for him....cooking, cleaning, paying the bills, even small bits of DIY such as changing a plug. He couldn't even write a cheque.

Terrible state to get into.

A girl once phoned in to the Danny Baker show saying that she had dated three Premiership players, she had to write cheques for one while all he could do was sign them. She never named names though.

I think if a cheque is involved, technically it's not a date.

I see what you did there..... another point, weren't the Neville brothers in some fly on the wall prog in which they were unable to find a wooden spoon, in a well stocked kitchen, with which to make scrambled eggs ?

I was thinking of the same thing, and I think it was just Gary - he was with Beckham, and made David look like a genius. That was the last I saw of him off the field until he started to work for sky sports, when I was shocked that he's not so thick after all. Clearly it's just as Phil says - they've lived their entire lives in bubbles, and all they know is football.

Yes, that was it. I think Beckham barely knew how to open a drawer !

All the wedge he has earned and he makes instant coffee. Wanker! Bet he's really generous to the missus around Christmas.

I thought Beckham was the smart one of the two, in that particular instance :shrug:
Understatement of the year.

Gary: Becks that's burning
David: what's burning
Gary: that pan there
David: it's got potatoes in it
Gary: looks like it's burning. It just flamed up
David: what's burning
Gary (referencing the gas hob): that underneath, see it Gower? What is it that? Is it supposed to be like that?

At one point during the search Gary opened what looked like a cupboard and it turned out to be a dishwasher. He looked quite surprised to find that he actually had a dishwasher.

Probably didn't reveal how much she was charging them to the Inland Revenue either.

It doesn't make Gary Neville thick because he didn't know where his wooden spoon was haha he looked in the dishwasher Im guessing to see if it had been washed. Lets not forget hes probably only 19, 20 or 21 in that video.

Footballers obviously lead sheltered lives though, everything gets done for them by the club or their family. All they have to do is train and play football.
