[Deleted member 15344]

Nominees: Ben Ainsley, Ian Bell, Hannah Cockroft, Mo Farah, Chris Froome, Leigh Halfpenny, AP McCoy, Andy Murray, Christina Ohuruogu, Justin Rose

Think Murray will be the clear winner

I thought Nick Matthew was going to be nominated? Maybe he is just going to get a passing mention instead.

Sailing is also a sport.

 

[Dodger]

No Tai Woffinden??

Again,says it all about this Mickey Moose joke award.

Yes,well spotted but to be nominated for successfully navigating a ship??

Really??

You have never sailed, have you?

Personally I think a lifetime achievement award would be more appropriate; given he won medals at 5 successive Olympics including gold at the last 4.

Really??

You don't navigate in match racing; a good tactician is vital though. As he proved.

Actually I have and still can't see what the fuss is about,it's not like he was on his lonesome.

Not to worry though it really is a total Mickey Moose award of that there is no doubt.

Team award then eh? If he's going to get a joke award it should be that joke one surely.

No problem Dodger, I take it that's the last we will hear from you on this thread then?

Not at all, I'll continue to tell you that it's a Mickey Moose award.Even the title of it is just plain wrong.....Personality??

Now,over the years that has been a total joke.

I agree that the title is ridiculous.
