BBC Sports Personality of the Year

[Stanbill05]

"Dame Sarah Storey = who and why ?"

Seriously? You don't know who?

I don't mind admitting I would have got it wrong in a pub quiz although I might have lucky guessed. I would 100% have got it wrong if it was a photo round. My ignorance doesn't diminish her achievements or her suitability for SPOTY recognition.. I don't vote anyway.

Alex Scott looking Hot

Surprised this is still going...... what with the title being Sports Personality,and the six in contention don't have one ah well.....any good Netflix recommendations anyone?

[Cirrus_Minor]

Boring tripe that nobody cares about any more.

Alex Scott looking Hot

Doesn't she always?

[MT03ALG]

Love in with Emma surely. Who votes ?

[MT03ALG]

I hope its Emma as I have had a flutter on her at 10/1.

Good chance

[MT03ALG]

It used to be Sportsman Of The Year, nowt about personality.

Be careful - Sportsman OR Sportswoman !!

[BurnleyFC]

Even cringier than normal this year.

[minnieclaret]

Fury has full in your face personality but how many three minute rounds has he fought in 2021?
I’d rather it went to somebody that has actually entertained us regularly with their sporting prowess.
Won’t be watching anyway. What was a years sporting review has become a waste of time and effort.

[Duffer_]

My top 3:

1) Radacanu
2) Storey
3) Peaty

Always love SPOTY. It is a great reminder of the breadth of sporting achievement in the year and done in a heart warming way.

I don't watch any longer as it's not like it used to be (as others have already alluded to). But I think if I was Jason Kenny I'd be seriously wondering why I wasn't in the final six shortlisted. Being at the very top of the all time list of our gold winning olympic medallists with SEVEN surely merited him being in the final six at the very least.

So a lass who has won one tournament has won it.
Whilst I watched the final and she deserved it.

Uk sports personality of the year, a joke.

I think you will find its the public that votes for the winner ...

A BBC hand picked restricted vote no less.

[Wile E Coyote]

oxymoron if ever there was one.

It was a massive achievement

True but hasn't it always been so

[Lowbankclaret]

It was I agree, one she might never repeat. She appears to be following Beckham model of success.

She might not repeat it. Her future performance was not being judged under SPOTY.

…and the losers!

[boatshed bill]

So Radicanu won it then?
I don't follow this sort of ********

[boatshed bill]

…and the losers!

That will be those of us who pay the BBC for a licence?

[SalisburyClaret]

And it took them over 2 hours to announce what was completely obvious

[boatshed bill]

Didn't watch it,
but does this young lady have a sporting personality?

[timshorts]

Well it's always fixed to favour sports that the BBC covers, and in a non-Olympic year that's only tennis, the boat race and some rugby.
Not the right sort of rugby, of course, as otherwise Alan wyn Jones would be on the list after leading the lions and breaking a whole load of records, but he's not cute, so that's a disadvantage.
Tyson fury is right. He should not be considered. Anybody whose "sport" involves doing your best to cause a head injury should not be considered. We've just lost another of our title winning heroes to alzheimers making 7 of that squad. And they were just heading footballs.

[Rileybobs]

Not my cup of tea, but my favourite thing about SPOTY is the people who come on here every year making themselves look foolish by not understanding that some words, personality, for example, have more than one meaning.

Well, why are you even commenting on a thread on it?

[chipbutty]

At least spell Sterling's name correctly

If only I had a quid on evry time it was spelt wrong

[chipbutty]

YAWN!! Is it that time of year again? Who gives a t**s anymore? Stopped watching it 20 yrs ago, when the Beeb lost most of the live sport it WAS so brilliant at broadcasting. Inter County basket weaving never seemed so interesting. SPOTY? One big bore-fest.

I don`t know what you do for a living, but I`m sure these absolute living legends don`t care either...

Jesus Christ, what happened to being kind?

[Wile E Coyote]

the entire smug fest is putrid, aimed at golf bores and wine o clock housewives.

BBC didn't cover the US Open tennis and it was an Olympic year, but apart from that, good points.

[evensteadiereddie]

Yes, the tired, old anti-BBC agenda...............usually from those who bang on most about it being wrong to mix sport and politics.

[Spike]

I was disgusted that Jimmy Robson wasn’t included in those who had sadly passed away since last years programme

Sorry, next time I want to make some sort of random comment I'll make sure I ask you first
