- 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)

[edit] 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)
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.

He's Jewish, and his son's names were changed from Jewish-sounding names

I've removed him from the Jewish American Sportspeople category. I accept that he is American, and I suspect that he is probably Jewish, but I cannot take seriously the suggestion that he is a sportsman. Baggie 10:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
