Not sure all their players can be badged up with that second bit..........

We heard that on the radio on the way to work, about Rashford talking to the president of the USA didnt mention ex !

My missus who doesnt really follow football turn to me and said " I am sick and tired of hearing about Marcus Rashford, people were doing this type of work way before the pandemic, he has just jumped on the bandwagon what's he doing it for ?" ".

I said " to get a knighthood "

I was going to say he won't get one off Boris because he made life difficult for him over school meals but if the Holy One can sort out Dominic Cummings, he will get a peerage. Lord Marcus of Old Moat.
The media have been kind to the rags since Wednesday finding so much else to print instead of second rate United fail in second rate competition.

Rashford should stick to his job and stop telling tax payers how their taxes should be spent. And keep his name and face out of the media.
He would do well to have a word with Mata who would be able to tell him how football should be played and how to do stuff for charity in a discreet way.

I've no idea what the basis is for your absurdly elevated hatred of this quite-good footballer and generous young man (I hope it's just because he plays for United), but it's really gone too far when you seem to be literally angry with him for advocating that children in one of the richest countries in the world shouldn't be going to bed hungry.

It's very strange. Not sure whose publicist set it up. In Obama's case it's a big 'Why?' If it's Ashton's work you have to ask 'How' it was brought about.
Obama says Rashford is doing better than him at 23. Of course he was.Obama at that age was a law student struggling to qualify and then to try and make his name as the black son of a single mother whereas St Marcus was living a pretty good life in the United academy from 11-17 and then paid a very large amount as a professional footballer.
Obama needs to shut up and get his own house in order. Plenty to do there.

Both of them have Penguin Books as their publisher, as well as Obama’s wife. You don’t think that Rashford’s Book Club was purely charitable?

When you look a little beneath the surface you soon see that what is thought to be philanthropic act turns out to be a chase for money.

Foden once again saying he didn't want to go out on loan and it's paid off

I literally advocate on here the plight of starving children in Africa.
I doubt Rashfords sincerity and have done from the word go.
'Absurdly elevated hatred' - dear me.

Sadly so but it does raise money. But its far from being as altruistic as the naive are programmed to think.
