"Lots of hangers on who helped bankrupt the country elevated to the Lords. The Weatherspoons bloke famous for sending down and outs and dole blushers home pissed after lunchtime, gets a knighthood. Kevin Sinfield and Rob Burrow only get CBEs and Tony Hudgell gets a BEM. There’s something wrong here."

"""Earps & a couple of others get honours for not winning the World Cup. How many of the mens team got honours for losing the Euro final?"" Harry Kane got an MBE after reaching the semis of the 2018 World Cup. A whole host of male footballers have honours (Shearer, Sir Trevor, Lampard Jnr, Beckham, Lineker, for example) without winning (or even reaching) a major international final."

"If we are going to have new year’s honours at all, it should only be for people who have actually done something to deserve it, not for party donors and cronies. Fuck this shit."
