“Raheem Sterling, he’s Sport Personality of the Year” doesn’t have an especially good ring to it tbh.

Raheem Sterling's S..P..O..T..Y
caseball's anthem it trips off the tongue

Surely Henderson is a shoe in for this one..

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

He will have no chance, all the bitter dippers will use at least a months worth of dole to vote for all the other nominees.

That's what I thought when I read the thread title. The RDAHMeedya will be appropriately puffed up if he gets a nomination only, and then comes in with the also-rans!

Of all the meaningless subjective awards that get handed out SPOTY is by far the most ridiculous.

Dina Asher-Smith is going to get this one as she ticks 2 boxes; ethnic minority and a woman.

Raheem will have to console himself with all the medals he won last year.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Stokes will win it by a mile.

Because of a couple of games of cricket?

 

[denislawsbackheel]

SPOTY should be just about sports achievement and nothing to do about racism.

no it shouldn’t.

it’s called PERSONALITY of the year not performer.

Yawn

Think if he did win it VAR would want to check it and take it off him.

Ha ha It's not based on a sports persons personality. Here's a few previous winners.
Andy Murray
Ryan Giggs
Zara Phillips
Paula Radcliffe
