Sports Personality of the Year..

[Super_horns]

A few surprise nominations and fairly unknown people to the wider sporting public.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/sports-personality/42078693

Elise Christie
Mo Farah
Chris Froome
Lewis Hamilton
Anthony Joshua
Harry Kane
Jo Konta
Jonnie Peacock
Adam Peaty
Jonathan Rea
Anya Shrubsole
Biana Walkden

Between Joshua and Hamilton maybe going on popularity and previous history where Froome and Farah have done fairly poorly despite a lot of success?

Maybe all the Spurs fans will vote for Kane like the Man U supporters did with Giggs in 2009!

Black supremacist AJ is heavy favorite because he went life & death with a
guy Fury toyed with. Shit award.

 

[Krazy8]

Jonathan Rea ftw.

I won't turn down another opportunity to state my dislike for Hamilton..... I don't like Lewis Hamilton.

Well in typically British fashion maybe Mo Farah wins having actually NOT won 2 gold medals in a major championships having come no-where before when do so.

Jonathan Rea came second and Jonnie Peacock third.

Women's crickets won Team of the Year and Federer overseas person of the year (bet Sue Baker had a strong say in that!​

 

[Meadow]

Mo giving up the track might have had something to do with it. I didn't think he stood a chance so voted for Jonnie Peacock.

I voted Froome for the shits and giggles when his grand tours are stripped.

Mo will provide the shits and giggles soon enough, I guess.

Pretty damn depressing to see Farah winning. Anya Shrubsole should have won imo.
