Cricket Spectator
Botham is an arrogant overbearing git who latches onto a point and repeats it ad nauseum. There was a point made in today's "Observer" (can't remember who by but it was in the cricket section) that he was impossible to argue with as whenever you were making progress in anargument he would come out with the comment "well how many test wickets did you get then?". Was a great cricketer and has done loads for charity so deserves it as much as anyone "deserves" an honour.
Crap commentator and generally irritating git, however. Was worried that his knighthood would make him more overbearing and irritating but fail to see how this is possible.
