      In a clip posted to his Twitter page, Lycett threw two large bundles of £5 notes into a woodchipper, leaving a shredded bundle of money on the floor before walking away.
      Openly pansexual Lycett gave England legend Beckham, 47, an ultimatum last Sunday, telling the star, who he called a “gay icon”: “Qatar was voted one of the worst places in the world to be gay.
      “If you end your relationship with Qatar, I’ll donate this £10,000 of my own money.
      “However if you do not, at midday next Sunday I will throw this money into a shredder, just before the opening ceremony of the World Cup.”

      Beckham made his first public appearance at the controversial tournament on Saturday ahead of yesterday’s opening ceremony and first match.
      On Saturday FIFA chief Gianni Infantino defended Qatar’s human rights record in a bizarre rant, with the Swiss accusing Western nations of “hypocrisy” and “racism”.
      Some online slammed the comedian – and said he should have donated the money to charity.
      Former Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries said: “Shredding £10k will earn Joe Lycett far more than it will cost him and is in effect a paid-for publicity stunt which has worked.”

      One former fan said the stunt had changed his view of the comic, saying on Twitter: “I liked Joe Lycett but he’s just shown what a privileged life he lives that he can afford to shred £10,000.”
      But actor Chris Addison defended the comic, labelling Lycett: “A force for good”.

      It is the first time in the 92-year history of football’s most prestigious tournament that a woman will officiate a match.
      French-born Frappart, 38, previously made history as the first woman to referee matches in France’s Ligue 1, the UEFA Champions League and World Cup qualification matches.
      She became a FIFA-qualified referee in 2009.
      Frappart said of host nation Qatar, which places strict rules on women: “I will go there for the competition. I wouldn’t go there for the environment”
      “But perhaps this World Cup will improve women’s rights in the country.”

      Rwandan midwife Mukansanga, 34, and Japanese personal trainer Yamashita, 36, have also been selected to officiate on the global stage.
      The fleet of female officials said they were confident refereeing in front of a worldwide audience scrutinising their every decision.
      Legendary official Pierluigi Collina, head of the referees’ committee, said: “For us, they are referees, they are match officials.”
      Collina, who refereed the 2002 World Cup final, added that the women were not picked because of their gender and would be allowed to officiate games involving conservative nations such as Saudi Arabia and Iran.

      But the patriotic pair pledged to give lionhearts a tournament to make them forget their woes ahead of tomorrow afternoon’s Group B curtain raiser clash against Iran.
      Gaffer Gareth said: “We’re in the middle of an economic recession and life has been difficult for a lot of our people.
      “So we want them to enjoy their football and have a journey with the team that brings some real happiness.

      England face minnows Iran at the 45,400-seat Khalifa International Stadium after reaching the semi-final at Russia 2018 and losing the final of Euro 2020 on penalties.
      But captain Kane, 29, spoke of his hunger to go one better in Qatar and end 56 years of hurt by landing our first trophy since 1966.

      The Spurs idol said “You have to appreciate these moments, and I am really looking forward to this one because we have got a really good team, a great blend of experience and youth.
      “In life in general you have to take opportunities that come your way.”

      Tomorrow’s opening England game kicks off at 1pm on a day that has been dubbed “Bunk-Off Monday” as millions of workers either throw a sickie or tune in while at work.
      School pupils – and soccer-mad staff – across the country will also take time out to watch the big game on TV.
      As many as one-in-ten schools will allow pupils – and footy mad teachers – to take a break, according to a survey by app Teacher Tapp.
      Chris Dyson, headteacher of Parklands Primary School, Leeds, said: “If the children know they can come in and watch the game, they’ll come in.”

      Apart from the football fans can expect to see the Three Lions take the knee as they back their campaign against racism.
      Southgate said: “We have discussed taking the knee, we feel we should. It is what we stand for as a team and have done for a considerable amount of time.”
      Kane and Southgate fired the opening shots of the Qatar campaign after a glitzy opening ceremony earlier today led by Hollywood legend Morgan Freeman.
      But the Arab hosts were stung by a 2-0 defeat to Ecuador – and catcalls from the South American fans demanding: “queremos cerveza” or “we want beer”.
      The jibe came as beer sponsors Budweiser showed off the mountainous stocks of cans going to waste thanks to Qatar’s last ditch stadium ban – and offered them to the nation which triumphs.
      Qatar tournament ambassador David Beckham took his seat in the VIP section at the Al-Bayt Stadium in Al Khor near under-fire Fifa president Gianni Infantino.
      The Fifa bigwig – who sparked a storm by branding Europeans racist for daring to criticise the hosts appalling record on migrant worker deaths – smiled benignly as the pageant began.
      Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani — who bankrolled the incredible £185billion spent on the tournament — also smiled and waved from the stands.

      And he revealed he is willing to defy any Fifa moves to ban the “One Love” rainbow armband.
      Pressure mounted last night as it emerged he could be booked the second the match kicks off if he wears it, or be forced to remove it in the dressing room.
      Two successive yellow cards in the first two group games will rule the Spurs goal-scoring ace out of boss Gareth Southgate’s side for the vital third clash with Wales.
      The move — backing gay rights and inclusivity — will defy a ban by football’s world governing body Fifa on promoting “political” issues at matches.

      Homosexuality is banned in the Muslim Gulf state and can still carry the death sentence.
      FA and Fifa bosses were last night wrangling over the issue as a Three Lions source confided: “We’ve had no clarity from Fifa but there are rumours.”

      Irked world football bosses issued an alternative armband to the 32 competing nations on the eve of yesterday’s opening game which saw hosts Qatar lose 2-0 to Ecuador.
      Harry, 29, said he was prepared to risk a fine or booking for making the gesture — and vowed to back the team’s core values.

      He said: “We have made it clear as a team and an organisation that we want to wear the armband.
      “I know that the FA and Fifa are talking and we will have a decision, but I want to wear it”.
      England are the first of eight European teams committed to the policy.
      A shadow also potentially hangs over Liverpool’s Dutch captain Virgil van Dijk and Wales skipper Gareth Bale, who also play today.
      Fifa declined to make any comment on “speculation”.

      Their outrageous tales of drugs, dancing on tables and sky-high hotel bills rocked the quiet resort town and arguably made more headlines than the Three Lions’ performance on the pitch – they were knocked out in the quarter-finals.

      Coleen Rooney was 20 at the time and yet to tie the knot with Wayne.

      England’s Wags to fly into Qatar tomorrow after throwing World Cup themed bash tonight

      by

      ENGLAND’S team of Wags fly into Qatar today – after throwing a World Cup themed party at home.They are due to touch down in Doha tonight ahead of the Three Lions’ opening match against Iran on Monday.
      A source said Wags, including Fern Maguire, would be driven around in Mercedes and Rolls-Royces in DohaCredit: Instagram

      And they’ve been offered a separate room on a luxury cruise ship to use as a walk-in wardrobe as their cabins are not big enough for all their clothes, shoes and handbags.
      The glamorous set are so confident their men can go all the way they packed their cases to the brim.
      Some of them even hired a personal stylist to help them cover up in the strict Islamic nation.
      Anouska Santos, Luke Shaw’s partner, John Stones’s pregnant girlfriend Olivia Naylor and Marcus Rashford’s fiancée Lucia Loi all sought help from Connie Jones.
      READ MORE WORLD CUP 2022
      She kitted them out with designer clothing, make-up and jewellery after low-cut tops, skimpy tight shorts and revealing skirts were banned.
      The Wags will board the MSC World Europa, a £1billion luxury cruise liner, where they will stay during the tournament.
      Sources say they plan to “bunk down” in shared cabins for “safety in numbers” amid security fears.
      But the cabins are far too small to house the volume of clothes, handbags, shoes and accessories they are taking.
      Most read in The Sun
      A separate hold room has since been made available for them to use as a ‘walk-in wardrobe’ whilst they are there.
      A source said: “They’re not travelling lightly, that’s for sure.
      “And they intend to do some shopping when they arrive, so the extra space is going to come in handy.
      “They’ve got a company on hire that will provide a luxury chauffeur 24/7 and personal assistants.
      “Personal shoppers will also be on hand once they arrive to tend to all of their retail needs.
      “They’ll also have a team of beauticians and hairdressers on standby to get them glammed up before hitting the city’s shops.”
      The source said the Wags, including Fern Maguire, Megan Pickford, Kyle Walker’s Annie Kilner and Jack Grealish’s Sasha Attwood, would be driven around Doha in high-end Mercedes, Rolls Royces and Bentleys.
      And some of them have even booked an open ticket home – in the hope England can make it to the final on December 18.
      The Wags kicked-off the celebrations early last night with a footie themed dinner party at one of their homes – before heading to the airport.
      A Michelin-starred chef catered for the send-off with national dishes from all over the world.
      They had champagne, balloons and banners.
      But once they arrive in Doha they will be under strict instructions to keep the boozing to an absolute minimum.
      And they will be closely guarded by a team of private security guards – believed to be paid for by their multi-millionaire footie loves.
      They will be joined in Qatar by players’ family members who are expected to stay at the five-star Marsa Malaz Kempinski.
      Coaches will be laid on to ferry them to the Khalifa International Stadium for tomorrow’s group opener.
      But as England progress through the tournament some of the Wags have eyed up a £40,000-a-night stay at the Ritz Carlton’s five-star Sharq Village and Spa.
      Up to 10 of them are looking to share the cost of the luxurious Royal Villa which boasts ocean views, a chef’s kitchen and 24-hour butler service.
      Various spa treatments on offer include a £170 stress relief massage – should England be taken to penalties – and a £400 facial to ease any tension.
      The Wags also want a day at the races cheering on camels.
      And a trip to Pearl Island is also on the cards – with endless boutique shops selling luxury clothes, handbags and jewellery.
      But they have been warned to be on their best behaviour.
      They sat through a presentation spelling out the dos and don’ts by the Football Association in September ahead of England’s 3-3 Nations League draw with Germany.
      They were told to respect the rules and warned: “You are not above the law”.
      The Wags must “dress modestly” in public and at stadiums and are not allowed to engage in any public displays of affection.
      Some were so worried they hired Connie Jones, who runs the Connie Personal Shopping Company, to tailor their outfits.
      One source said: “Connie leaves nothing to chance and has examined their itinerary and desired outfits which will fit into situations such as visits to restaurants or even when they are in the gym.
      “She is highly trusted and thought of by the women and has contacts to source the latest fashions and clothing so that the women look the best.
      “This World Cup is very different from the last one in Russia four years ago where the players wives and girlfriends could show off their bodies and figures in items such as denim shorts and skimpy tops.
      “The women know that they are going to be photographed wherever they go and they understand that it helps them on their social media profiles so they have to look the best.
      “The last thing they want is to offend anybody in Qatar. They have a lot of self-respect and want to show the same respect to the people there but at the same time enjoy themselves.
      “What we are going to see at this World Cup is a new style of WAG. They are going to look amazing everywhere they go.”
      Connie has more than 50,000 followers on Instagram and they include Jordan Pickford’s wife Megan, Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood, Kieran Trippier’s wife Charlotte, Kalvin Phillips’ girlfriend Ashleigh Behan and Declan Rice’s partner Lauren Fryer.
      They must not drink alcohol or swear in public, play loud music, sing, shout or act “inappropriately” during the call to prayer.
      Littering, which is illegal in Qatar and punishable by a fine of up to £6,000 and a year in prison, is also forbidden.

      And they were warned taking selfies outside government buildings was strictly off limits – and likely to lead to police action.
      The presentation ended with the words: “With that said, do have fun!” More

      Her estate agent owners Jenny and Vernon Moore, both 52, from Melton Mowbray, Leics, insist she’s “never wrong”.
      Vernon said: “It’s the best possible omen for Gareth and the boys. Getting past the group stage is in the bag.

      Camels hold a special status in the World Cup host city of Qatar, where they are bred for the hugely popular sport of camel racing.
      But unfortunately for the home nation, Camilla believes Ecuador will win the first match of the tournament tomorrow night.
      Jenny said: “Camilla is very strong willed and always seems to know when it’s food time so we have absolute faith in her ability to predict World Cup results.”
