Beckham's toilet humour
David James, Rio Ferdinand, David Beckham and Japanese girl
Sealed with a kiss: Becks makes young girl's day
David Beckham has been revealing details about his toilet habits in the warm up to the Nigeria game!

The England captain shared his secrets with a group of cheeky Japanese pupils during a visit to a local school.

Beckham, who attended the Ishiya Elementary School with colleagues Rio Ferdinand and David James, looked shocked when one child asked: "What do you do if you need to go to the toilet during a match?"

He replied: "You can't! You just have to hang on."

Another one said: "What kind of haircuts do you normally have?" - to which Beckham joked: "This is about as normal as it gets."

After fielding a few 'normal' football questions, Becks was asked if he would name his next child Sapporo, to which he replied: "No, I've done that once."

But perhaps the cheekiest question of the lot was put to the England star by one young female fan.

"Do you have a girlfiriend?" she said. "And if not, can I be your girlfriend?"

"No, I don't have a girlfriend," he chuckled - "because I'm married!"

Well, you can't blame a girl for trying.
