Happy with Mo and Murray, although the fact that Farah barely spends any time in Britain isn't ideal. At least unlike most Olympians, Murray and Farah's medals were free, as they don't need lottery or other state funding that most medal winners enjoy. | |

You are right. Dour is an unoriginal way to refer to Andy Murray. How about.
Boring mogadon voiced kilt wearing coont who plays a sport no one gives a shite about unless you are a bored middle class housewife who lives in SW London.
I'm about 30 years older than Andy feckin Murray. Am I supposed to call him Sir now ? He can feck right off.
The whole honours system is a pile of shite and should be scrapped.
They will be dishing them out to talentless bints like Victoria Beckham next. Oh. They just have.
Feck off.
And Happy New Year. | |

+1. THe only honours worth anything now are the BEM and the MBE , given to "ordinary" people usually for some exceptional selfless dedication over many years without recognition or reward. What's the betting that "Sir" Jose Mourinhio appears among us in the next few years, along with "Sir" Dappy of N'Dubz, "Sir" Russell Brand and "Sir" James Corden? | | | |

Does anyone know what the criteria is for getting a knighthood? I thought it was for contributions to the benefit of your country or it's citizens over a lifetime or certainly over many years
Murray has certainly done a lot for himself and made millions out of it and you cannot deny him his achievements, similarly with Farah, but at least wait until they've retired from that sport!
Ennis? Well at least she has now retired, but let's see what she's going to put back in to the sport and then she whether she deserves a Damehood (as with the others when they do eventually retire)
Awards of that status should not be given to anybody under the age of 40!! | | | |

Sir Mark Thatcher. Sums up the honours system.
Murray is a great tennis player. No doubt about that. But a Sir at 27. A joke. | |

Never understood this anti Murray thing. The lad has battled and sacrificed his way to No1 in a sport where we have struggled.
On the way he has won Olympic Gold and played and won world honours proudy and honourably for Great Britain.
Perhaps it's an accident of birth, had he been born over the otherside of the border, in England, or not been so proud of Scots heritage, perhaps some of those desentors would have taken him to thier hearts. | |

I’d like to suggest another category of new years honours. The CUBE (C*nt of the British Empire). With so many worthy contenders it would make the selection process very difficult though. | |

How many english knights have made a particular point of expressing their hatred of the scots? And no, not just humorous sporting rivalries, but that actual tired nasty old mix of hatred and envy of the nation and all its people as a whole? Funny how Corbynistas are so keen to react like Pavlov's dogs when anyone in England dares to malign any other nation but there's this gaping hole in their criticism when it comes to ignorant Scottish bigots. Why is that? And I'm a quarter Scots by ancestry apparently. | | | |

Sir Ray Davies - now that I approve of. I love that man's body of work. Should artist's be knighted? Well we have a long history of it and Davies is right up there. | | | |

Would suggest a quick check on English / Scottish history from around 1100 onwards. | |

He's a top player in a sport no ones really interested in, and yes maybe in 20 years time he should be rewarded, but he's 27 ffs and still playing. (does Gary Anderson deserve it?). Spose the umpire will now have to open up now with first game, first set ,Sir Andy to serve.
Bradley Wiggins gets one for riding a bike round France and chatting a lot of shite, when Frome let him win a few years back in a sport as bent as a nine bob note. Whats that all about?
Deserved that didn't he | | | |

Yep agreed.
How about Mr Eric Clapton CBE getting an upgrade?
Won't be around forever and long overdue. | | | |

Yes of course he has. I remember kids in the junior school playground bragging about what their dads did, and that was all fantasy to try and impress the bigger smarter kids. You haven't moved on have you. So why would "your dad have an MBE"? | | | |

Just a pity our IRA and other terrorist exterminating members of the armed forces get jailed or dragged through the courts for doing their duty where the government has sent them and risking their necks at the same time.
No awards for the real heroes | | | |
