Thus spake popbitch: Another football season ends. All the gossip, scandal and sleaze will no doubt be back again in a couple of months. There was one question we've been wondering about... where was Teddy Sheringham during West Ham's do-or-die fight to avoid relegation? A West Ham insider claims he knows. The story goes that on Alan Curbishley's first away game as manager Sheringham sat on the team bus playing cards for money with some of the younger members of the team. He cleaned most of them out, one for at least 20 grand. Curbishley is said to have told Teddy to cancel all the bets, or he'd never play for the Hammers again. Looking at the young, lippy, Bentley-owning, non-entities... Sheringham refused.
