Soccer Aid


I don't understand how people can be arsed with this. A bunch of self-indulgent multimillionaires asking for money (minimum of £10 just proves how up their own arse and completely out of touch the organisation is) from working class people, while they badly attempt to play football, irritates the life out of me. I give a fair bit to charity but if any of the organisations I donate to started lecturing me via celebrities, I'd probably find somewhere else to give too.
 
Absolutely everything about it is horrible.

No one playing in them games give 2 hoots about the cause they're raising money for.

Just another excuse to get their stupid grid on the telly...self indulged crap.
I don't disagree, but I generally take the view that if it is raising money for a good cause then it's no bad thing.
Do the people playing care more about their own image? Quite possibly in many cases. But money for good causes is still money for good causes. If it takes pseudo-celebrities having their egos massaged to get some people to dig in their pockets, so be it.

Same as Comic Relief, Children in Need and any advert for various charities where Celebs asking you to send money.
