You can all ask what did Peter Schmeichel do to deserve his? Same for Tony Adams, Les Ferdinand, Steve Bull, Steve Perryman, Viv Anderson just to name a few....

For those that don't know... it's because they are nominated for them and if enough nominations, they will get an OBE or MBE

If you look at previous footballers who have got these awards and then still in your opinion think Gerrard doesn't deserve his, for his services to football... get over it!
