Sports Personality of the Year 2013

Will be a whole lot easier, next year, with England returning victorious from Brazil...
Wayne will be a guaranteed shoe in for SPOTY ...

The only way England have a chance next year is if all the other stadiums collapse and it goes to drawing straws

Sorry, but I can't agree with your logic there. On the contrary, he has at last beaten one of the all time greats - in a Wimbledon Final, it doesn't get any better than that.

By the way, did you actually watch the final?

I did, and Murray showed sheer guts and determination throughout the match - and to win in 3 straight sets shows how much an accomplishment it was.

I hope he does win - it will be richly deserved. :thup:

Head to head record between Murray and Djokovic over the last 5 years:

Total: Novak 7, Andy 6
Grand Slams: Novak 3, Andy 2

One of Murray's wins was at the Olympics. A pretty even record overall.

Aye - too many of us fail (by choice?) to appreciate and celebrate greatness or genius in our midst until it's not there.

Thanks for that ger, I didn't realise it was that close.

And even closer now with Andy winning Wimbledon - the "Holy Grail" of tennis. :cheers:
