For some reason people on Alfa Romeo Owners Club feel that Murray Walker should get a knighthood - it looks like I'm the only one disagreeing so I could be burned at the stake soon.

I've pretty much had it with AROC - feel like an outside in amongst the gangs.

Services to motorsports etc, an OBE or whatever its called,but i'd be sure he has one already, i dont think he deserves to be a nighht of the realm, but then very few do...

cash for peers..

knighthoods get handed out far too easy these days. He doesn't deserve one plain and simple - but then neither do 95% of the people who get them.

That's my opinion. Like children they say "well Bono's got one so he should too". Wonder if they be so quick to say the same thing if Bono was burned at the stake.

Knighthood, no way, he wasn't that great as a commentator, how many fuck ups did he make.

Sorry but NO!

Knighthoos are meaningless now anyway...

You know the old saying - if the face fits! As Voodoo says, it's not like he was the perfect commentator and even if he was, I don't see why that makes him eligable for one. Far more people have done far harder work than he has, yet I don't see them getting honours.

Then again, step one on the eligibility criteria seems to stipulate chucking some cash in the direction of those making the nominations :lol:
