SPOTY 2017

Chris Froome ?

Froome's achievements are remarkable but I don't think he's as popular as the track cyclists and probably still suffers from all the doping controversies associated with TdF.

Peaty must have a good chance, but we've still got the world athletics championships to come and if Mo Farah wins double gold again he'd be my choice. 

Sorry thought you were talking about spotty as oh says at times my bum takes some beating

The way the BBC is going, I fear, unless Peaty or Froome declare themselves trans-gender, I can't see either making the short-list.

No it will be a female cricketer or footballist for SPOTY surely.

Froome would be the ideal choice.  Best UK road race rider ever. 

Well, who will it be then?

Well, any surprises?

Well it's all over, our Mo got it! But do others feel that there are other minority sports personalities who were actually more deserving of this award? 

Seems a very popular result with the press this morning.  Good to see motorcycling got a look in.  It's strange that the bookies got it so wrong this year !

I assumed that the recent bad publicity kept the votes lower for both Lewis Hamilton and Chris Froome.

M. Farah is a worthy winner. Well Done !
