CAPE TOWN, South Africa — Very few people know exactly what an angry fan told David Beckham and some of the England football players after strolling into their dressing room following the 0-0 draw with Algeria at the World Cup. But plenty of others know what they'd like to have said to the England team.

In an incident heading straight for football folklore, a man got past security and into the dressing room, said what he had to say, and then was escorted from the stadium by a local organizing committee official. Police are now investigating.

 

The incident set off reaction from disillusioned fans following England's poor performance.

 

"I know what I would have said," says Alan Wright, a dedicated England fan since the 1966 World Cup.
