BBC SPotY

What a choice we have this year! And the athletics or track cycling haven't even started, with Kerr, Reekie, Gill, Hodgkinson, Finucane and others to shine. Hamilton (carrying a poor team), Pidcock, Kee, Cavendish,  Richard Spratley (google him), Gareth? Harry? Nathan Hales (I'm guessing he'll  get more than one gold),  Marcus Smith, Hughes, Littler.

We probably have to wait for Olympics to finish, but so many great performances.  What have I missed?

    Got to be Cav, hasn't it?  To be the oldest TDF stage winner for sixty years is something special. For it to extend your count of wins to a record total that even Eddy Merckx now looks up to is beyond exceptional. And you've got t remember in that sport it's not just winning a race and going home, he had to complete a gruelling course every day to finish the tour. 
    He should get it but I doubt it. That moment when he won the last stage with Wiggins leading him out is one of the best moments in British cycling. Lifetime achievement probably.

    Yeah he should get that over the SPOTY... Although I bet Andy Murray will challenge him, especially if he wins Gold

    Two Legends of their respect Sport, both retiring quite close together
  • Could be the most wide open field in years. Would throw Lando into the mix if he can mount a proper challenge to Verstappen. Don't think there will be anyone from Cricket challenging this year.

  • It’ll be Bellingham

    Luke Littler 9/2 2nd Fav
  • 20 years ago, when our gold medals could be counted on one hand, meant immortality for an Olympic gold, but now golds in minority sports aren't enough to do well in SPOTY. Unless you have an incredible backstory or multiple wins.
  • Ben.Stokes after he scores a Test match 50 in 15 shots & then a 100 in 25.
  • It's an absolute dog shit award.
