New money can really go to the head and it seems West Brom footballer Liam Ridgewell has so much of it that he can afford to flush a £20 note down the toilet every time he goes to the loo.
It’s clear that Liam lacks any bit of class as photographs of the star wiping his bum with four times the average person’s Christmas budget emerged last night.
The disgusting photo has infuriated football fans everywhere and according to The Sun, one fan said: “The people of West Brom earn a fraction of what this idiot earns yet he makes a mockery of his good fortune like this. It makes me sick.
“We’ve always thought footballers were arrogant, overpaid buffoons and this just proves it,” he said.

Meanwhile, Liam has spoken out about the photograph which he claims was taken as a personal joke.
“The photo was taken in the privacy of my own home around eight months ago as a joke to wind up a friend who I had just won a personal bet with.
“I only intended him to see the photo but now it’s public. I can understand how it will be viewed. I am sorry for the offense it has caused.”
Carpet fitter and West Brom fan Ryan Walker said: “It’s insensitive to fans who have to scrape the money together to see him play. You wouldn’t catch me doing that with a £20 note.”
Another fan Robert Jones said: “Even though he did it for a joke she should give a bit more thought to what kids who see it might think. It’s not doing much for the image of footballers. I’d be interested to see what the Queen has to say about it too.”
For a guy who earns more than €25,000 euro per week his bathroom is pretty rank. What a tool!
