Well done Geoff, long overdue

Just been on the wireless someone's moaning he shouldn't have been Knighted because of an altercation with his Missis in 1998. Says Knighting him is condoning domestic violence.

Vaguely remember it.

No they aren't... however...

"During the trial, the court was told that Boycott pinned Miss Moore down and punched her 20 times in the face before checking out and leaving her to pay the bill."

Nice chap.

And today:

Martha Kearney (BBC Reporter): “What about your domestic violence conviction?”
Boycott: “I don’t give a toss. That was 25 years ago, love.”
That should win the critics round.

Its today's topic for the sheep to bleat about.

The vast majority complaining probably won't know who Boycott is and will have no knowledge about his conviction.

He already had an OBE. He was knighted today.

Quite simply the greatest Yorkshireman of all time.
