So send a few tweets, do a few tv interviews and get an MBE, really? At 22 and a few months of doing something we'd all agree is a good thing he gets a higher honour than a nurse of 29 years.
Some people spend a lifetime doing good work for charities and never get recognised for it.
Rashford is high profile hence his "honour". He could do what most footballers do and that life a life in a grotesque financial vacuum of excess .He seems a decent chap.
I just wished all these "empire" honours were stopped a many are warped and tainted by bribery.
Great welshamn Lloyd George liked nothing moe than making thousands from requests for honours.
What a load of utter old bollocks OBE MBE BBC UB40 what a load of tosh some old bird who lives in a big house in London who has never heard of you and has no interest in you gives you something because she has to Lorraine Kelly, Mary Berry,Maureen Lipman do me a favour ! It’s 2020 FFS!
You might have twigged I'm something of a maverick that' hard to work out but I deeply resent this Honours system which still relates to the Empire ,which is long gone.We were by no means the worse culprits of colonialism but really nothing to be proud about,although for people of my age ,this drivel was rammed down our throats.
Im not actually anti monarchy per se -just ours,which is anachronistic in it extreme.
By all means reward outstanding service in the community which means giving knighthoods not MBE s to coxwains of lifeboard/air ambulance crew/Paramedics/Fire fighters who go beyond the line not to chap who take over ASDA ffs.
As for services to business -I will have a warning for bad language if I go down that road.
As for sports people,a shocking omission is Jimmy Greaves .
Cant get over Sir Tommy Steele. You ever watched his films or listened to his songs. adly,I remember still "little white bull",the most disgusting record of all time IMO .Traumatising stuff you never forget.

Are you suggesting her Maj isn’t a massive Dizzie Rascal fan? Royal insiders often tell of the pulsing beats of a ghetto blaster emanating through the walls of the royal apartments.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
Everyone in the away section could see it was a dive. Yet the ref, who had a great view, gave a penalty. Cheated. Diving #$Â¥%

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
Keith did warn us on the language front...But it doesn't feel the same not being able to lose our ...err, stuff from time to time
When ever I want to swear now I just put (Removed by administrator) instead.
It saves Keith time and people know what I mean anyway.
For example, if a ref makes a mistake I would say: “what the flying (Removed by administrator) is that (Removed by administrator)ing (Removed by administrator) playing at giving a (Removed by administrator)ing foul there. He should stick his (Removed by administrator)ing whistle up his (Removed by administrator)ing (Removed by administrator).
