Gunga Din Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) just had two people text me saying he is getting a knighthood. anyone else heard, or am i the victim of a windup Edited April 15, 2011 by Gunga Din
Stupid Sexy Flanders Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Hope its not true. I'd hate to have to hate him.
Swipe Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Some MP at the memorial said he should get it. Don't think it was anything more than his own opinion. Was a lovely moment though. Crowd started chanting and he looked really touched.

Bogman Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 They're going to petition the Queen for it to happen.
LondonLiverpoolFan Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) I thought he looked awkward and a touch annoyed when it was mentioned. As if he wanted all the attention on the anniversary and not him. Edit: Top man Rafa there in the crowd, choking back tears too. Edited April 15, 2011 by LondonLiverpoolFan

He looked both shy and awkward and touched. Was a great moment. That and the Rafa moment there have been really touching.
dorgie Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 He should've got it in 1990 after the way he conducted himself with dignity, leadership & class in leading the club through the most difficult 5 years in it's history.
floyd the barber Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 just finished watching the memorial.....so many tears while watching, wonderful service.....seeing rafa crying was a touching moment, a man who did so much for the cause behind the scenes, lets hope our fans never forget that ynwa rip the 96..

smithdown Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Was Rafa invited as well? That's a nice thing to happen. Good lads all round.
Rory Fitzgerald Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Was Rafa invited as well? That's a nice thing to happen. Good lads all round. He was never gonna miss it, even if he was still in Milan.
John am Rhein Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 irrelevant honour - he already has higher ones
johngibo YPC Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Was Rafa invited as well? He doesn't have to be invited, surely
Sion Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 irrelevant honour - he already has higher ones King beats Knight. Obviously.
Jiggy Hates Jazz Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Top man Rafa there in the crowd, choking back tears too. We're lucky to have him and Kenny as ambassadors of this club
