Kenny is deserving of a knighthood for his playing career alone. He also won the league title with Blackburn in 1995 against all the odds. Yes, he already has the MBE, but it really should be upgraded to a knighthood. Some people were suggesting Bradley Wiggins for a knighthood earlier this year, who hasn't achieved anywhere near what Kenny has achieved.
Anyway, there's no point in me trying to convince those who have doubts. If you aren't sure by now, you'll never be sure.
