Nude footballer reveals reasons

No sooner had I posted the last item then I found this news item about those crazy dudes who got naked to play a game of football- with blurry photos. If anyone has any better photos I'd be sure interested to see them.

One of the friends seen on a website playing a naked football game in a stadium admitted it was a bit of "fun".

Matthew Wintle from Port Talbot was one of the six naked players who kicked a ball around the town's Remax Stadium.

One of the group filmed the others after they had been out in Swansea celebrating an 18th birthday.

They were hoping to send the 47-second clip to a TV programme but after it was turned down, the naked game was posted onto the YouTube website.

"We did it for a laugh," Mr Wintle said. "We had been celebrating Craig's 18th birthday in Swansea on Friday night.

"We stayed up in Craig's mum's house playing cards and then decided it would be a good idea because the house is near the field."

All six has played for a Port Talbot Town's youth team which was disbanded at the end of last season, but added "they didn't bother with the club anymore".

After first approaching Sky Sports' Soccer Am programme, Mr Wintle said one of the group posted the footage on YouTube, where it was viewed thousands of times before being removed.

A note on YouTube said: "This video has been removed due to terms of use violation".

Wearing only boots and socks, the video shows "Ben, Craig, Ginger, Dano, Dai, Betsy" being filmed by Anthony Britton back in March.

They walk onto the pitch naked, before running towards the goal passing the ball.

After one shoots and scores, the men cartwheel and somersault towards the corner flag where they proceed to dance and chant.
