Or she could just come and do it on the pitch at half time during the Swansea game.

if it happens, i guess we'll finally know how much it costs to buy a knighthood.

Looks as though this news is true as it's now on both the Express and Telegraph websites.

Congratulations Doug; great news and fully deserved. Also, many happy returns for next Tuesday.

What's it for, something to do with bicycles ??

Will we get the bike racks renamed the "Sir Doug Ellis Bike Stand"? With a statue of him doing a bicycle kick?

[Greg N'Ash]

Someone mentioned his name had come down from the stand a while back. there was a forlorn hope Lerner had finally decided to do the decent thing but you can bet Doug's probably let it slip and demanded the Sir gets added. *cringe*

Why would him selling Villa mean he gets knighted?

I thought you'd used up your daily quota of nonsense with your Beye stuff earlier. You've got quarter of an hour until your next ration.

[JD]

Well I will say congratulations Deadly. He should get a knighthood just for the way he laughed at Abramovich when Villa beat Chelski

Why don't you come down the match on Monday and tell him?
