And why should a British theatre forum care about a corrupt German footballer?

I have only just noticed the word 'corrupt' haha!
Sorry, Burly. I shouldn't be replying to things when I've only just woken up.
However, I did just google 'how bad a person is Franz Beckenbauer & the answer was 'not nearly as bad as Jeffrey Epstein, Oscar Pistorious or Carrie Hope Fletcher'.

Ouch, poor Carrie. For clarification alicechallice, I'm German myself, I find it strange and weird to see this post in a British theatre forum to begin with (and would find it just as strange if a Brit barreled into a German theatre forum shrieking about Gary Lineker or Wayne Rooney). And yea Beckenbauer "bought" the world cup 2006 for Germany, which was not a good look. |

I agree it is unusual but we have had conversations before about 'General Chat' being for whatever people want it to be, for the purpose of inclusivity. There's always plenty of football chatter around World Cup/Euro championships, of course. And we currently have a major play in the West End about football. |

Franz Beckenbauer is German, but David Beckham is English. The names seem a little related. This thread raises issues similar to some posts in the America250 thread where people drew sharp distinctions between "English" and "American" when in fact "English," "German" and "American" are all a lot closer than country name on the passport suggests.

Apparently on "Footieboard" they're all talking about formation play and the off-stage rule.

I liked him. Only saw him once - at the Yvonne Arnaud at Guildford - playing Astrov in Vanya. Very good.

Compassion: sympathetic feelings for the sufferings or misfortunes of others - empathy which died out when humans suddenly started proclaiming they cared very much about everything and everyone.
