BBC Sports personality of the year 2012.

[happypig]

Wiggo
Ennis
Murray
Hoy
Farah

All cracking candidates. Who else?

John Terry - CL Winner and played a blinder against the CPS

 

[Hillian1]

Nothing at all, great respect for them and what they've achieved at the Olympics, but, as SPOY is voted for by the public, and I don't think equestrian sports have the same wide-ranging appeal as some others.

Princess Anne won it once.

 

[Postman Pat]

They managed to vote Cavendish to win SPOTY for winning a few TdF stages. What Wiggins has done, WAY surpasses that.

WINNING A FEW TdF STAGES!!!!! He became the first ever british winner of the Green Jersey!!!

Funny thing is his World Championship win this year would have been a massive deal usually, but it is a bit..... meh, after all the other great acheivements.

Wiggo should still win it, winning the TdF is one of the hardest things in sport, and to follow it up with a gold medal 3 weeks later just defies belief..... plus he is back in the saddle next week in the tour of Denmark. Amazing.

 

[Hove Seagull]

Princess Anne won it once.

Like I said earlier, and absolutely no disrespect to Princess Anne, but, most years they struggle to come up with a deserving winner. Especially compared to this year.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

At anything from 11/2 to 8/1 just don't rule out Ennis.

Ryan Giggs is proof of that.

I agree, was just pointing out that Old HRH Horse face won it for being good on horses.

So did AP McCoy...

God, I'd forgotten about that!

 

[Badger]

God, I'd forgotten about that!

Sorry for reminding you!

 

[Hove Seagull]

So did AP McCoy...

OK, you bullied me good and proper. What I meant to say was, I'm sure one of the horsey people will win it this year!

 

[Hillian1]

So did AP McCoy...

Must have passed me by that one, when was that?

 

[Hove Seagull]

Sorry for reminding you!

Yes, well with all this talk on NSC over the past few days about being offensive, I think you've over-stepped the mark!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Must have passed me by that one, when was that?

2010!

(Zara Phillips has won it too)

 

[Hillian1]

2010!

Well bugger I. Just goes to show that even winning SPOTY can't get me excited about anything to do with horses, hate the bloody things.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

and Zara Phillips aka Jessica Ennis ?

 

[Stat Brother]

Greg Rusedski, won it.
They only thing he did win that season!

Was that the overseas personality bit?

Umm Pat, Cav won the Green and World Championship, last year, hence winning the SPoTY.

The World Championship is held in Sept.

If you want to make a shit load of money have a bet on Jon Tiernan-Locke winning it, this year.

 

[Stat Brother]

Was that the overseas personality bit?

Nope.



I feel a google race coming on.
