Gareth Southgate knighted (P65)

[Gordyola]

i did , it says he has an mbe, but i meant why would he want to be a sir in this country with the titles he already has in his own

Sheikh Mansour knighted?

Was just browsing wikipedia and noticed it says he was made "Honorary Knight Commander of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire" in 2013. Can't see any media reports from that time but he is listed here (http://www.leighrayment.com/knights/knightshon.htm) along with a few other members...

I suspect the smarmy Tory supporting twat, Brandreth, only rails against the honours system because he's been repeatedly passed over. See below.

That’s brilliant, shame the clock music isn’t in the real show!

He deserved to lose two finals just for allowing that kind to be recorded.

I’d be embarrassed if I was him and that was in the charts.

Only to Ireland?

Shit like this is why we f’ed off the UK and emigrated to Canada.

Nearest non-UK state sprung to mind first.

Would have been funny, if when he kneeled down, a brown paper bag was put on his head.

Knighthoods for losers even khan got one for fucking up the capital.

I said in the other thread
Rewarded for being to scared to lose a match and not brave enough to try and win a match.

He can't manage at the top level, that being the pl. International football is championship standard at best. So an award to being a championship standard manager bloody hell

This. Very easy qualification groups and draws in the finals and did what most would have achieved with the same squad and draws. Lost to the very few good teams played.

FFS it was a tongue in cheek. It was banter about Trumps nonsense.

I understand that, however unfortunately some of his rhetoric is resonating with Americans as truth.

Perhaps this is more suitable for the Politics thread but for example he is proposing a 25% tax on goods imported from Canada.

Knighthoods for abject failure? Shouldn't be long before we have Sir Wayne of Rooneyshire.

I know perfectly well about Donald Trump being and absolute **** who couldn`t lie in bed straight.

I also know what he is threatening. I`ve been telling everyone who I know what a shit stain he is from before 2016.

So with respect I don`t need advice from you about which thread an off the cuff sarcastic comment belongs in.

Thanks from r.soleofsalford the original Donald Trump hater.
