BBC Sports Personality of the Year

[mrmuzeman]

Does she win though if shes not the Queens granddaughter? What dyou reckon, I dont think so. So its not about anything other than her being a royal relative which sucks.

Dressage has got to be one of the shittest things ever. Tbh if she wins then her horse 'Toytown' is also the winner and as far as im aware horses arent that hot on personality

[GETT1NLOTS]

You would though wouldn't you?

[mrmuzeman]

Not really into horses myself Gett1n, although I hear Toytown is a fine filly.

Seriously though if shes Karen Nobody theres no way shed have won at all.

Wouldnt have minded to see Joe Calzaghe win as hes been champ since almost I can remember even if he is a bit of a slapper

[GETT1NLOTS]

Yeah - I just don't like Calzaghe. Even when he fought Lacy it was all a bit slap, slap, pitta, pat.

Any other boxer dishing out that many punches would have had his man on his arse. I dunno - it's everything about Calzaghe I just don't like.

Zara Philips won because it was a poor year. Nobody stood out if we are truthful hence whoever won it there was going to be a bun fight in the punting community.

That said Ian Robertson of FiveLive Rugby Union commentary fame tipped Zara Phillips at 50/1 a while back.

Feel a bit sorry for AFU, I think he had a few quid on this although it doesnt say but this is exerpt from first post in this thread from way back

Surely we have to win the Ryder Cup on 'home' soil ??

Monty @ 30 seems a bit obvious for me. We have Luke Donald at 44 and Darren Clarke at 27.

I think Clarke should have won it, if were actually talking about 'personality' but I guess they just call the award that.

[GETT1NLOTS]

Anyone who backed Darren Clarke at 27.00 would have laid him off before now for a guaranteed profit. If AFU had Clarke I'm sure he would have done this MrM.

[stereoman]

1. Phillips, 2. Clarke and 3. Tweddle.

What a load of crap.

Darren Clarke's is a romantic story (to be sure to be sure) but is it worthy of an award that goes to individual achievement? I am getting twitchy on this one and have already layed part of my bet off.

Hmmmmm

I did lay it off. Some (£100) was put back on Liverpool to win the Premiership at 130/1.

Hurrah - onwards to glorious victory come May.

[mrmuzeman]

Glad to hear it.

Well you certainly put your money where your mouth is, Liverpool title and 13K what a May that would be for you
