So, what exactly was the problem?

The fan who entered the England dressing room after Friday night's World Cup match has been arrested and charged with trespassing. Pavlos Joseph, 32, will appear in court tomorrow morning and was tonight banned from attending any further matches in the tournament.

. . .

Joseph, a life-long England and Manchester United supporter, said he told a stunned Beckham that fans were bitterly disappointed at England's performance.

"I looked David straight in the eye and said: 'David, we've spent a lot of money getting here. This is a disgrace. What are you going to do about it?'"

The mortgage advisor said that when Beckham asked him who he was, he responded: "I'm Pavlos and I actually need the toilet."

. . .

Beckham, who gave a joint interview with Princes William and Harry, said: "Luckily it was after the princes had left – five to 10 minutes after.

So, what? Their royal fucking highnesses might have had to meet one of the small people? Christ on a cracker, the things we accept as normal in this world.
