Always like the awards handed out to the ordinary Joe/ person,they are more important to me. The old lady 55 years as a lollipop lady seems more relevant than a well paid footballer/ celebrity. Nothing against Beckham he has been a marvellous player and ambassador for his country, his charity work is commendable but he’s in a position to do all that because of his wealth/ celebrity status he’s achieved through being a top professional but I expect that of people like him because of the the position they hold. The old dear who’s probably struggled through life just like the rest of us yet giving back something to her local community over a long period seems more worthy of an award but hey it’s just my opinion and congratulations to Beckham on his Knighthood.
