I dont think the Queen does mickey mouse knighthoods if anything its more of an honour to get a knighthood when you're from another country and watson is british anyway or are black people born in britain not british now?JDC wrote:Apparently Bill Gates has one too, but they're not allowed to be 'Sir'.

Re: Bunce article on Michael Watson
For what it's worth, when Watson was born his parents lived in Stoke Newington. So he is as eligible for a knighthood as anyone.

hope he gets it for some of the way.ejruane wrote:That's a great idea about the Olympic flame.
(I know he never competed in the Olympics but I believe he ticks all the boxes re the 'Olympic ideal').
he won't get to light the flame though.
disagreed with his comment on the mccallum fight.
"he struggled to beat me on a bad night"
that's absolute nonsense.
but even so an inspirational story.

I met Michael in the summer for a piece I did for BM. Incredible person with fighting spirit still very much in tact. A highly intelligent man and bears no resentment. He would do it all again.
