Who is going to be SPOTY? I was absolutely convinced it would be Wiggo after the Tour, but I have no idea now. I think Murray might even be the favourite.

This is such a ridiculous year, there are seven or eight candidates who would walk away with it any other year.

Has to be Murray?

Tennis is such a huge sport surely the amount of people his success has influenced is far larger than any Olympian or cyclist?

I'd be happy with Murray, Wiggo, Hoy, Ennis, Mo or Pendleton.

Basically, anyone but Tom Daley. When I caught some of the Olympic parade on the BBC news the other day it was focused on him, I don't understand why the media are obsessed with him.

Oh, and it might be Rory McIlroy if we win the Ryder Cup.

It'll have to be Wiggo, no Brit has ever won the Tour before and he got a gold in the TT.
FUCKING MEGA.

See my vote would be for "No, let's just forget about them already."

If I even knew who they were in the first place.

The BBC has radically overhauled the voting system for the Sports Personality of the Year award following last year's controversy about the all-male shortlist, ahead of the most hotly contested year in its history.

The victor will still be decided by the voting public but it has abandoned the practice of asking a wide range of newspapers and magazines to vote for their shortlist, a process that last year led to an all-male shortlist amid heated debate over the reasons why.

Instead, the initial shortlist will be decided by a panel of 12 experts including BBC executives, former nominees, newspaper sports editors and sports administrators. The shortlist has been expanded to 12 from 10 due, said the BBC, to "the unprecedented success of UK athletes in 2012".

If we're going to be assburger, given that it's 'sports personality', you would see who has offered the most to inspire sport through achievement, and for me that'd be Wiggo or Jess Ennis or Chris Hoy.

Saudi Arabia fielded their first female athlete in the Olympics this year. I believe >>4548 was poking fun at >>4547's apparent lack of progressiveness and probably believes that there should be a female athlete in the shortlist for SPOTY regardless of whether or not any female athletes have done enough sporting-wise this year because to base it solely on merit and not take gender into account would be sexist, you see.

Actually there would be a better chance for a female to win it if the public were allowed to vote on the shortlist instead of having "papers" and "executives" vote for their shortlists. In all honesty, I would prefer if there was a separate award for women. Spilt the SPOTY into male and female awards.

I would also like to add that I don't appreciate your tone. You are marginally better than the "PC GONMAD" idiot.

An Olmypic gold and the first tour win for a Brit? Not to mention he seems like a sportsman with an actual personality which seems to be rare these days. Not a fan of cycling but it has to be wiggo for me.
