"Glazer's initial attempts in 2004 to buy out the team were opposed by many fans due to the perceived insecurity of the bid (as Glazer required a high amount of loans to finance the purchase), and led to pitch invasions" When were there pitch invasions?
- I believe there was one pitch invasion during a reserve game [1] TigerShark 18:59, 13 May 2005 (UTC)
  - That's the only pitch invasion I know of in relation to Glazer, so I've edited it. God, even looking at this bastard's photo is making me feel sick :-( Cantthinkofagoodname 09:19, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
    - Shouldn't this talk page have a NPOV? Ablaze
      - Don't know what the guidelines are for POVs on talk pages. If it's really that big a problem for you, I don't mind if you delete it. Cantthinkofagoodname 23:24, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
        Its not a problem for me, but if someone else saw it they may get offended. I'm also not sure about POV of talk pages 11:27, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
        POV rules apply to the articles, not their associated talk page. Although personal attacks are not welcomed. Proto t c 28 June 2005 11:35 (UTC)

Sir

It says sir? I was under the impression that non-brits when knighted did not gain the prefix to their name. Philc _T+C 15:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

I think that might just have been a wind up. Nice pic on your user page btw :) CTOAGN (talk) 18:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

haha, yeh. Hope you dont mind I nabbed it from yours. hehe. So I take it old malcolm hasnt been knighted.... should hope not too Philc _T+C 19:45, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

If a non-British or Comomowealth citizen gains a British knighthood (or to be techincal an honourary knighthood) they are not entitled to use the prefix Sir but I was unaware that Malcom glazer had been given any hounor by the British government so I have deleted Sir from the article.
