Rejected petition knighthood for Andy Flower

More details

England cricket coach Andy Flower deserves a knighthood for his services to humanity and sport. Not only was Zimbabwean national Flower one of the greatest cricketers of his age, his bravery to risk death in standing up to the regime in his beloved Zimbabwe shows the level of humanity in this man and bravery in standing up with his cause along with teammate Henry Olonga. Also Flower became England coach when the team was at the bottom of the world and has led them to world number one, 2 ashes series wins, a whitewash of India, a world 20-20 cup and total world domiance with one of the most gifted young teams we have ever seen. For these reasons I urge you to give this great man the knighthood he deserves
