The former Manchester United and Real Madrid footballer was at the semi final yesterday evening (July 16) and watched as England were agonisingly beaten 2-1 by Argentina.

After Anthony Gordon opened the scoring for the Three Lions in the 55th minute, Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez scored in the 85th and Lautaro Martinez hit the winner in the 92nd.

The pair have lived in west Oxfordshire for several years, sharing a mansion in the Cotswolds where they keep animals such as chickens.

After the defeat, Becks took to social media to try and rally disheartened England fans after the defeat.

He said: “Heartbreak for us all but memories that inspire and last forever… Thank you to our team, our fans & our country for what you have given us in this World Cup.”

His wife shared heart emojis in response to his statement as did many other members of the public with the post racking up over 750,000 likes.

England will face France in the 3rd/4th Place Play-Off on Saturday.

Winston, a whippet from Oxford, has predicted all of England’s matches correctly so far and has now made its call for this evening’s semi-final.

Shaun, Winston’s owner, said: “This is, perhaps, Winston’s boldest statement to date.

“I’m 30 – I’ve never experienced England playing in a FIFA World Cup final before.

“His predictions have been true to form throughout the entire tournament, but here’s hoping those psychic powers have now run out.”

Shaun is hoping Winston’s powers have vanished as the psychic pooch has predicted Argentina to win and progress through to the final against Spain, causing despair among the dog’s English fans.

Winston’s predictions have become a fixture of the tournament thanks to a light-hearted campaign by Oxford PR agency Fortitude Communications, in support of The Joey Beauchamp Foundation.

The foundation was set up in memory of former Oxford United footballer Joey Beauchamp, who died by suicide in 2022.

The charity aims to support men’s mental health across Oxfordshire.

Each year, one in four adults and one in 10 children in the UK experience mental illness, with around 165,000 people in Oxfordshire impacted—enough to fill the Kassam Stadium more than 13 times.

Shaun said: “Joey’s friends and family want to create a lasting legacy in his honour.

“Mental health challenges can affect any person and can be entirely unforeseen.

“It’s very possible we’ll never know which of our loved ones are handling a particular situation unless we proactively check in.

“So, it’s worthwhile to ignite a conversation not only during this World Cup but beyond the final too.”

The results of the 2026 GP Patient Survey for NHS England were released last week containing data including how easy patients find it to contact their GP as well as reception and administration ratings.

Almost 3 million surveys were distributed by market research agency Ipsos with around 650,000 responses received in England between January and April.

The public also gave their views of the ‘overall experience’ of their local GP surgery, ranking them very good, fairly good, neither good nor poor, fairly poor and very poor.

Now, the Oxford Mail has compiled a list of the 20 surgeries that received the highest percentage of very poor votes, with the national average being 4 per cent.

Technically the worst performing GP surgery in Oxfordshire was Luther Street Medical Practice in Oxford with 14 per cent of respondents calling it very poor.

However only 4 per cent of its patients asked filled in the survey with 55 per cent of them in fact giving it the highest grade, above the national average.

Another Oxford-based surgery, Temple Cowley, wasn’t far behind with 13 per cent saying it is very poor.

Around a quarter of those asked filled in the NHS survey for Temple Cowley (more than the national average), with 3 per cent rating it fairly poor and 12 per cent saying it’s neither good nor poor.

Representatives for both Luther Street and Temple Cowley both said there were reasons for their poor performances.

The spokesperson for Luther Street said: “Our patients are a unique and often vulnerable population who, like everyone else, require access to regular GP services and ongoing healthcare support.

“Many also face additional challenges that can make accessing and engaging with healthcare more difficult.”

Meanwhile, the spokesperson for Temple Cowley explained that it serves a community “with significant levels of deprivation”, with demand rising, workforce pressures and growing patient need all impacting its service.
