out today......

David Beckham was fooled into bathing in Evian water on a trip to Russia — after he was told tap water would turn him bald. Fellow soccer stars Ryan Giggs and Gary and Phil Neville also fell for the wind-up.

And footie officials only realised the players had been taken in when they asked why they were getting through so much mineral water. The joke was played on Becks and his fellow Man Utd stars on a trip to Russia for a UEFA Cup tie against Rotor Volgograd in 1995.

Brian Kidd, then assistant manager, said the water was contaminated after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster and washing in it would make their hair drop out.

Ian Dunwoody, who organises Man Utd’s trips abroad, has just revealed the joke.

He said: "We took our own food and bottled water. When I asked about the amount of water being used they said it wasn’t for drinking but for washing. It cost thousands of pounds in water."

Classic. Geography, locations and specifics not very strong points seems.
