Congratulations to Lou Macari. I hope people outside North Staffordshire recognise it's for his tireless work to help homeless people.
It should be Sir Lou.
Strange that there is no award for Lou Macari in the New Year’s honours. Again. It's so wrong. Macari deserves to be honoured not only for services to football but especially for services to the community and tending to the homeless in Stoke-on-Trent. He embodies everything an honour should be about – compassion and humility. “There are people waking up in the cold, in a doorway, no job, no breakfast, no lunch, freezing, no evening meal," Macari told me last year. "Sleeping rough is horrendous and I thought I can do something.” And he did - building a home for the homeless, giving them a place of their own, giving them respect, love and hope. @LouMacari10 saves lives. Btw huge credit to @stokecity players, staff and fans for their winter coat donations to @MacariFDN this Christmas. Football cares.
