Sad news - Sky News are reporting that David Beckham's dad, Ted, has had a heart attack and that Becks is preparing to fly to the UK to be by his side. The thoughts and prayers of all fans I'm sure, are with Becks, his dad and the whole family at this difficult time. Let's wish Ted Beckham all the very best for a full recovery.(Source) David Beckham's Spokesman told the Press Association that Ted Beckham was taken to Whipps Cross Hospital in Leytonstone, east London, on Wednesday night and then transferred to the Royal London Hospital. He also said, "His father has had a heart attack and is currently being treated in hospital. David is flying back to be with him... Victoria is in Japan working but obviously she has been informed of it and she is concerned."
Update 2 - (Source) Some positive news - David Beckham's spokesman has issued a further statement to Reuters saying, "He [Ted Beckham] is in a stable condition... He had a heart attack last night... Victoria is in Japan at the moment due to work commitments, but she has cancelled them and will take the next available flight." More details here.

Becks up for World Best XI Player Awards
David Beckham is one of 55 players short-listed by the World-wide Players' Union for the World Best XI Player Awards. You can view the full list here. The winners will be announced Oct 5. It is an honour to be one of the 'nominated' players so congrats to Becks and let's hope he wins!One last thing, there are headlines such as 'Becks in Match of the century' and 'Taylor lines up Beckham and Zidane for union's centenary' coming out but please be aware that these headlines are mis-leading and don't rush to buy a ticket believing David Beckham will be playing until there is confirmation that he will actually be able to make it.

The report on Skynews made it sound serious but they didn't sensationalise things as much as The Sun so maybe things are not as bad as they make it sound...they do make things up. I hope the paparazzi will back off and give David some space and that things turn out ok for his dad
