The David Beckham deal with Guild eSports (GILD) always stank to high heaven as I pointed out at the time of the IPO while the deadwood press sucked the cock of the Beckham PR machine. On its IPO it raised £18 million but agreed that – irrespective of what sales it achieved – it would hand £15 million of that to Mr David Beckham in return for his work as a brand ambassador. Today, less than two years after that IPO at 5p, the deal has had to be scrapped in order to persuade investors to back a bailout fundraise to stave off bankruptcy.
