Congratulations to Alan! As one of the Guests has pointed out, it is BEM not OBE and perhaps a Mudcat elf could change the thread title please....

Managed to congratulate him on his B.E.M. yesterday and he said he was shocked and delighted, but is was really for all of us who have volunteered and played over the years. He deserves it without doubt.
