[BillyShears]

Haha. Very good. But it's spelled "istree" in this context. ;)

 

[leo_city]

Well deserved. Certain parts of media will be seething

 

[kaz7]

Good lad, he has fought against the racists and the media racist bias towards him for years , well deserved

 

[dronefromsector7G]

****, I want to be an MBE ;-)

 

[Norman kneejerk]

Any idea where he sits on the all time list? I can't figure it out!

Quite a bit down. Probably around 20th. There are quite a lot with 100 plus from oldies like Billy Gillespie, Billy Meredith, Horace Barnes Tommy Brownell, Alex Herd Fred Tilsion Eric Brook even Shaun Goatee though his weren't top flight.I will try and find the actual list

Nice one mate appreciate that. I’ve googled it to death and none of them make sense.

#7 | Raheem Sterling - 2019/20 Performances

Amazing numbers ,some wanted rid earlier in the season,form is temporary and all that I seem to remember quite a few of those people writing David Silva off as a luxury player a few years ago.

He scored 15 goals since then so he's comfortably ahead of goater now and probably past a few others. He's 21 off the top 10.

Legend. Cheers Dom.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Very pleased for him and his stand against racism . Takes courage .

 

[G-Star Medium Rare]

TBF six pages on a player who is the club's second highest goal scorer of the last 40 years at 26 years old being given an MBE ...

I think the antipathy extends beyond just the media these days.

Soz. I didn't see the 6 pages, just got a headline from the M.E.N. Nothing at all on BBC sports so far unless I'm mistaken.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Well done Raheem. And well done the media for stating Raheem Sterling ex Liverool player gets MBE. They just had to shoehorn that in didn’t they.

Surely they wouldn’t be so petty?

About half way down under 'More Top Stories' ...and to be fair to the BBC (sorry!) the headline didn't mention the Liverpool man who got an honour as well. (Can't remember his name and not bothering to look, if he doesn't play for City well tough!)


EDIT: I only looked at the headline now clicked on and read the article and it does mention thingymabob Henderson further down the page, but the headline is OUR RAZ, SO STICK THAT IN YOUR BUMBAGS LIVERPOOL FANS!!! Whoops must have left the caps lock on. Tut, tut.









bumbags isn't swearing is it? If it is my Dad is turning in his grave!

Phew, I would have been mortified as well as waiting for my Dad to haunt me!! Thanks Kaz. :-)
I know it is daft at my age but I guess it's a hang up I can't get rid of. Ah well. x

 

[Gray]

If he had stayed on Merseyside would he have got a Knighthood?

Joking apart, well done to that man a decent individual by all accounts.

 

[bulldogblue]

Well done Raz.

 

[Bluesince88]

Was great when he spoke out after that chelsea game. Was a real catalyst in an attempt of change. Nowhere near complete but he should be proud of his role.

 

[West Gorton Blue]

Well done Raheem, fully deserved recognition.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

You should join my political party, the "We Dont Live in the 18th Century" party, which would abolish all titles, the H of L, and the honours system. Oh, and Manyoo.

Very politically savvy. ;-)

MBE is sometimes said to mean through 'My Bloody Efforts'. Raheem is far more deserving of it in that respect than another footballer much assisted by the media especially the BBC who once had four features in five days.
Raheem can be proud he didn't get his award from a vote seeking PM. Arise Sir Alex.
