Reading an article on Lou Macari today, whilst sipping an ice cold Mythos by the pool in Greece.
Obviously there was nothing in it I didn't know already as regards his sterling work to help the homeless over the years.
But my question is, how on earth has that great man never received any official recognition for his work?
In an era where knighthoods are given out willynilly for far less, Lou hasn't even received a lowly CBE.
Unless he's indicated he wouldn't want an official state honour, and that's fair enough, how can that possibly be?

Good question, Stevie. He's a saint. It's bizarre he hasn't been recognised for his work outside football. It shows what a nonsense the honours system is, an anachronism we need to move on from.
