BBC Sports Personality of the Year

[Cyclops]

Apologies if there is another thread about this but Tyson Fury's Friday the 13th-like rise from the grave was in the running for sporting moment of the year. I got a vote in for this before it closed, but we don't know if the gyspy Jason Voorhees is actually in the running for SPOTY. If he is, surely we in the B&I forum could all have a little rally to vote for him?

[Cyclops]

Well delete thread. Despite him being in the audience, he's not even nominated. Couldn't care less about the rest of them. I wonder what else is on?

[ALI]

Did not even make the cut, sad but true.

I know. Load of shite.

According to odds checker he's 4th favourite 10/1 AJ is 80/1, pointless any way, may as well have just posted it to Harry Kane right after the World Cup

[Boxerbeetle]

In the absence of Fury, I’ve just voted for Geraint Thomas.

But frankly I don’t give a toss who wins.

The shortlist was drawn up by bbc pundits and posh journalists.

Fury was never going to make the cut unfortunately.

Jessica Ennis still looking fit

McGuigan was one of several ex sportsman on the panel as well.

Billie Jean King what a disgrace, famous for beating a geriatric but no room on any award for the legendary late William Dunlop, a man who died doing his profession and what do they do, they wheel out spackers and netballers.

Overseas personality? A fornicating golfer

I assume he put Fury’s name forward but wasn’t championed enough by the others. Asher-Smith is a little star in the making but fact is she’s won second rate athletic gold medals so far. The Europeans and commonwealths aren’t the world champs or Olympics.

James Anderson is being nominated for his wicket record. The rest sort of deserve to be nominated to be fair. Yarnold and Hamilton compete in middle class sports and are deserving anyway. Tour De France, nuff said. Harry? He’s a genius and football is sport in this country.

I’m very surprised an English womens footballer wasn’t in the line up ( the bbc obsessed with that bollocks ) or a netball player didn’t make it. I guess they can’t slip people in from sports where about 65 people take part.

It’s a toss of an award. Who the Fvck do the BBC think they are anyway? Going on like it’s some form of sporting oscars? Go back to protecting nonces you licence thieving pudenda!

[leejonesjnr]

I don't believe that the BBC would ever let Tyson Fury win and honestly I am ok with that anyway.

[rd350lc]

Haven't watched this communist TV tripe since Lineker had anything to do with it .
Can't stand the smug cxxnt .
Load of backslapping corporate cxxnts,
Bet it's always been fixed anyway
