Sports Personality of the Year 2012

If Mo doesn't win the vote on this forum, he's not got much chance overall! Murray splits the housewives vote as he's not nice enough- I think it has to be Wiggo.

Isn't there a coach of the year too? Dave Brailsford should walk (/ride) that one.

Isn't it sports PERSONALITY, rather than sports ACHIEVER?

Where does personality come into the selection?

But how can you say that one person who has won loads is more deserving than another person who has won loads?

They should all take part in a sport that none of them currently do, and see who wins 

 What like dancing we could see who does best and set it to a public vote?

I'm with FB the shortlist seems very balanced there are names that I think all of us would like on there but who would you take off to do it? The field this year compared to the last few years is massively different.

As for Pendleton afraid one of the team ladies events has probably taken her off the list. It's not that they where disqualified more the interview after in which she said it was all down to a error on the other rider. A cheekiness that hasn't really been seen since the Iraqi information ministry gave press conferences in the last gulf war. It's a shame but it's a very strong list.

and now we have the list for the welsh sports personality of the year.................I didn't  realise that Leanda cave was welsh 

Seren she's a tri type surely someone else will beat her.

I thought there where welsh and scot personality of the year awards? Might have dream't it.

Usain Bolt for overseas "Personality" without doubt. Good question re Team GB or Para Team GB or Cyclists/rowers/horsey type team
