The “affair” that footballer Wayne Rooney has recently been accused of has stirred up the press like no other, it has been widely reported that the player saw a prostitute on many occasions in recent years, including when his wife Colleen was pregnant last year.

Even Rooney’s cousin has updated her Facebook page with a humorous comment on the event, stating her aversion to the fact that Rooney paid for a prostitute while “other footballs have girls begging to have sex with them”.

The prostitute that Rooney has been seeing is called “Premiership Jen”, and even she has spoken out about an incident in which the footballer asked her to come back to his home, saying that paying her to go back to his home when his wife was out would be “taking it a step too far”.

Many people have since sympathized publically for Rooney’s wife, Colleen. Some people have told her to send her husband away, and with her valuable business assets, she could likely handle the situation financially away from her husband.

Embarrassingly, Wayne Rooney was exposed back in 2008 for participating in sexual relations with a prostitute in her late 40s who was dressed in a tight catsuit. Still, the footballer appears to have not much going for him beyond this current situation, with a poor performance in the World Cup, and a reported poor performance in bed. Still, with millions of pounds in tow, it will be interesting to see him make more tabloid appearances in the future.

Sara Carbonero more than just a WAG  Sara Carbonero may be known as a WAG, but like her husband Iker Casillas she certainly has a lot more going on than simply hanging onto the arm of the star skipper.

Carbonero at age 26 is employed as a television presented for the Spanish television station Telecinco and is worth a few million pounds on her own without the aid of her husband.  Of course, the fact that she is stunning does not hurt.

Outside of her brilliant shape and features she does hold a journalism degree from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and loves sports journalism in particular which only makes it fitting that she would be the girlfriend of a star footballer.

While Carbonero has been held responsible for distracting Spain a handful of times on the football field and even blamed for causing Spain’s loss to Switzerland in the World Cup even though they went on to win the championship this is not her best moment in the spotlight.  Instead, her best moment was probably when the magazine FHM USA named her The Sexiest Reporter in the World which is a title that is hard to beat.

As the ‘Posh’ of the journalism world, Carbonero has earned her own right as a WAG and managed to keep the same squeaky clean image by staying focused on her job and staying far away from the rumour mill due to her excellent professional behaviour at all times.

Ivelin Popov blocked from Blackburn by immigration rules  The Blackburn Rovers will not have Ivelin Popov on the team, at least not right now.  Two weeks ago the deal was struck and the Bulgarian striker for Litex Lovech had completed a medical and agreed to terms.  According to reports, the Rovers were ready to pay £2.5 million for the star.

However, the British government has stymied the transfer.  It seems that Popov has not played in enough internationals, having missed several games during the last year because of injuries, and the government denied his application for a work permit.

Since the striker made his debut for Bulgaria in 2007, he has made three goals in 15 matches, and played a crucial role in his team winning the league title last year, as well as the domestic Supercup and two national cups.

David Beckham will not be playing at West Ham United  David Beckham’s stellar career is clearly not over yet, but he won’t be returning to his ‘roots’ in the east end of London, despite continuing efforts on the part of David Gold, co-owner of West Ham United.

Beckham, who is currently under contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy, has given no indication that he’s interested in Gold’s offer, and Gold told reporters on Sunday that he has given up on the idea of the big name signing.

Gold said he thought West Ham would have been an ideal place for the English star to end his career, but that Beckham is apparently planning to “move on” and the Hammers will have to do the same.

Earlier this summer, England manager Fabio Capello indicated that Beckham’s international career was over after his Achilles injury kept him out of the World Cup.

Recently, however, it seems that Capello has rethought his decision, and will be giving the English champion some more time for full recovery.

Court hears about football train fire prank that went very wrong  Heir to a £3m farm, Peter Wallace, caused an entire crowded train to panic after he set Arjuna Rabindranath on fire, who then ran throughout the carriage enflamed in agony.

The Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court heard that the duo were fans out to celebrate Halloween and were on their way back from the Aberdeen Scottish Premier League fixture on October 31st of 2009.

Wallace, age 24, was said to have been flicking his lighter near Rabindranath’s costume, which was made of wool, until it finally lit up. Prosecutor Mark McGuire stated that suddenly people heard screaming and then saw the man running up and down the carriage.

A passenger that was on the train stated that it was like watching a scene from a horror movie as the victim ran burning throughout the carriage.

Many tossed beer on the outfit in an attempt to put the flames out but to no avail.  Rabindranath was taken to a Dunfermline hospital but later had to be transferred to a specialty burns unit in Livingston at the St. John’s Hospital.

The court was told that after the event Wallace went to a police man at the railway station and told him that he was fooling around with a lighter and accidently was the one to set fire to the man.

Rabindranath had second and third degree burns that covered over 40% of his body and extensive smoke damage to his lungs that at some points caused doctors to believe he would not recover. He was ordered to pay £25,000 in compensation to Rabindranath.
