I'll be voting for Kev Sinfield.

Wouldn't mind if Mo Farah won, but what's the betting the home counties vote for Andy Murray, a man with zero personality.

The winner doesn't have to be funny or articulate. Murray helped Britain to their first Davis Cup in 79 years. He'd be a worthy winner (although I hope Sinfield wins, obviously).

Maybe they should rename it "Sports Achiever Of The Year' instead of 'Sports Personality Of The Year'.

Currently Jessica Ennis-Hill is favourite, and I can only see her, Murray, Fury or Hamilton winning it. Still its great to have some form of recognition.

What I don't understand is this seasons best player Hardaker isn't the one nominated. I mean everyone else on the shortlist seems to have been the number 1 perfomer in their event/sport this year. Come across to me as a token gesture.

Hamilton for me, a proper personality.....

Personality? Nobody comes close to the gypsy warrior, 2fast, 2Furyious

Oh god no, he's got that phoney American personality thing down to a tee. As well as basically only having to beat Nico Rosberg as the car they have is so far ahead of the field.

And a tax exile

Im going to vote Sinfield for what he has achieved this year, but don't talk e

I'd love Sinfield to win it but he obviously won't. Just having him profiled on the show is good for RL. It would also be an award based on his career rather than for having a particularly good year.

As for the ones who actually have a chance of winning, Fury would be my choice. Yes he's essentially only won one fight, but being the heavyweight championship is a huge thing, and love him or hate him he is entertaining. I have huge respect for Murray, but Davis cup aside he's had a pretty mediocre season by his standards. I wouldn't begrudge either Farrah or Ennis winning it. Just please anyone but Hamilton.

I'm not sure that homophobia is really the personality trait that SPOTY is after.


He'd surely be up there with the greatest wouldn't he?
