...after the last few weeks, this surely has to be!?
He's had a considerable amount more success than Sir Clive Woodward
you would be a fool to bet against it.
There's something wrong if he doesn't get one!

Sir Clive had plenty enough success in his own right, but Brailsford has certainly earnt his place in the NY Honours list I feel.
If you want to pick on sirs less well deserving, how about starting with footballing sir's that didn't even earn their knighthood from the 66 world cup...
Done deal.............
Sir Chris Hoy is going to have to either be made Sir Sir Chris Hoy, or just be given Scotland.
I mentioned this too him when I met him at the TdF time trial (he signed my Sky jersey), and said I thought it was a travesty that he hadn't had a knighthood already. And this was before winning the TdF and the current success on the track. He just smiled ๐
He's an all round good guy, very interesting to talk to. He also had to ride Froome's bike back to the hotel ๐
shoe in.
he's already got a CBE and already won a SPOTY coach award.
He obviously wants to keep his hand in on the bike just in case his off bike success slips away...
He must be good, channel 4 news gimp talking to Jason Kenny (I think) compared him to a football manager he's that good! Praise indeed.
Hoy is a Sir?
I thought it was Circus Hoy!
He might have already said thanks but no thanks.
Hoy could be upgraded from Knight to Baron
Just seen him interviewed on the news about the "special wheels" complaint by the French...
Had to fight back the tears of laughter... What a bloke!!! ๐

Not just round wheels, but really really round wheels! ๐
