There are reports David Beckham could move to Spurs on Loan from LA Galaxy. Harry Rednapp could prepare him to play 9/10 games, but couldn't play him all the time. |

Marko, you've got it wrong (as usual).
The above sentence should read: "It is rumoured that David Beckham will move to Spurs....." etc etc.
To "report" something is to use fact as the basis for the piece (well, at least in the case of non-tabloid rags, anyhow).
And what's the point of Beckham only playing 90% of each game? |

A lot of very good players play only 80 or so minutes a game, especially if the team's winning and to give underplayed subs a run out (and an appearance fee/bonus).
Yes I know that's not what Mark meant but it does answer Colin's question, I hope _________________ -

This is disgraceful! These "reports" (sorry Colin!) emerged at least 4 days ago and Marko has only now brought it to our attention. Questions will be asked in the House - well they would be if our hardworking representatives were back from their extended hols! _________________ MiS |

BBC Sport understands that insurance premiums have made a short-term loan deal for the LA Galaxy midfielder too complicated.
...
Galaxy demanded the insurance fee after Beckham picked up an Achilles injury during his last spell on loan in Europe with AC Milan last season.
