Video: David Bentley wins a £15,000 bet


Footballer rewarded for kicking football

David Bentley may be enjoying mixed form at White Hart Lane this season, but Spurs and Arsenal fans will testify that the winger knows how to hit a long range effort.

For some reason, Bentley finds himself on the roof of Red Bull’s London headquarters, when his agent says he can’t put a ball in a skip on the other side of Charing Cross Road. The agent has so little faith in his client’s abilities, that he puts his £15,000 watch on him missing. As the headline suggests, DB earns himself a new piece of bling.

(At a time when people are struggling to pay their mortgages, isn’t it great to know that footballers are still waging huge amounts of money on kicking footballs into skips? God bless the Premier League.)
