Mr. Tommy Sale MBE (or Grandad to me and the other Saleys

) has asked me to post the following on the forum for him:



Tommy is very proud and humbled to have been given this award and he would like you all to know that he has been shown your messages from the forum and on Twitter. He said,



"I wish to thank all the people who have kindly sent me their congratulations upon my award"

If ever there was a deserved award, this is one.



Congratulations, his extended family must feel so, so proud, which includes the massive Leigh Centurions and Rugby League family that he has

Bloody marvelous news - the only thing Mr Sale hasn't done is be a lollipop man.





Congratulations.

Tremendous news and well over due. Congratulations Tommy but In my eyes you will always be Sir Tommy Sale.

Congratulation Mr Sale MBE, really pleased for him.
