Remove Eric Bristow's MBE.
The former darts world champion Eric Bristow has suggested football abuse victims are not "proper men"
Former darts world champion Eric Bristow has suggested football abuse victims are not "proper men" - and has been criticised on social media.
More than 20 ex-footballers have come forward with allegations of historical child sex abuse in the sport, and five police forces are investigating claims.
But Bristow, 59, questioned why they did not "sort out" their abusers "when they got older and fitter".
