  • Ha, quality !
  • Always lots of contenders in an Olympic Year - so many to chose from already this year

    Yes - Jason Kenny and Tom Daley would be amongst the favourites I would think.

    Edit: Just looked on oddschecker and they are the two front-runners.
  • Yeah unfortunately I think Tom Daley will be right up there now - Still be a travesty if Mark Cavendish doesnt end up on the shortlist... Also feel that his achievements still overshadow anyone's at the Olympics, but the Olympics have always received better coverage than the Tour
  • Adam peaty for me 
  • Cavendish for me. One of the greatest ever sporting comebacks. But he’s won it before. Kenny or Daley would be fine. How about Peaty? 
    Footballers rarely win; but Sterling maybe? Harry Kane? Darren Pratley?
  • Cavendish for me too, though very close with Jason Kenny
  • I’m assuming Ipswich have the team award sewn up for already going through the season unbeaten 
    Obviously, they will have Jason Kenny, Tom Daley and Mark Cavendish in the squad by the end if the season to cover all bases.

    Cavendish,Peaty and Jason Kenny have got to be the front runners. Team GB to take team of the year too. 

    Rumours of a special award for Services to Moaning for Christian Horner too. 
  • Charlie Kirk for me.
    I find myself fretting over whether we sign him or not. But tbh, never really ‘eard of him. 
  • Kenny for me. If you can't win it in a year when you set a record like that, when can you? That said Trott has got to be a contender, can't they have a family award?

    Is Cav out of contention for the TdF next year? I'd rather him get the award when he takes Merckx's record ;)
  • Cav for me ... but Jason Kenny is right up there too. 
  • Sky Brown if there’s a breakthrough/youth award.

    Rassie Erasmus will run him close on that.

    Will remain to be seen how he does over the next 12 months really... Hasnt signed a new deal with Quick-Step yet for starters

    Am thinking the same - cheating 'water carrier' too
  • Marcus Rashford?
  • Marcus Rashford?
    He’s struggled with an injury that affected his form.

    Bound to be, or a special award, maybe "The Montgomery Burns award for outstanding achievement in the field of Excellence" would be appropriate.

    Kenny is a great shout. He has won a silly amount of medals, mostly gold and would be very deserving. Mind you, his wife ought to have a great shout too! I'd give it the the Kenny family.
  • Adam peaty for me 
    Same 
  • Another shout for Kenny, although I get why Daley is up there given everything he's gone through and achieved. And people genuinely seem to like him (and why wouldn't you?). Feel for Cav but in an Olympic year, in a minority sport that doesn't get prime time coverage, I can't see him getting it.
  • Kenny became Britain's greatest Olympian of all time. I appreciate that feat is achieved over numerous years, but it is akin to Hamilton breaking the F1 records. It deserves recognition.

    He won an award last year for his work to ensure school meals

    Rassie and Horner in a room together would be carnage 😂
  • Joe Root? Pretty much playing every other country on his own at the moment. 
  • I think Lauren Price deserves some kind of recognition

    He will definitely be on the short list as he's been superb this year, but the poor performance of the team will count against him
