| Not just me then...it really was a poorly presented programme. Seriously, some of the sports mentioned were so minority it is a joke, but i guess the Beeb pay for/show them, so it makes sense, right?  At least we got a mention  |

I would have thought by definition you would need a personality to win this award?
I guess it's the BBC pandering to Ferguson so that he'll agree to be interviewed by them again.

Abysmal.

What has Giggs achieved? Deciding he was Welsh was his first mistake. If he had ambition to play World Cup football he would have plumped for England, his country of birth. "personality"? I think not.
I use to really look forward to Sports Personality of the year so that I could watch all the best bits of sport from the year. But now BBC has so little live sport, it isn't worth watching

The award has got nothing to do with personality (although from people I know who have met Giggs, they have all said what a decent bloke he is), it's more of a Sportsperson of the year.
If the BBC were pandering to Ferguson surely they would have give him coach of the year. After all he only won the World Club Championship, Premier League, League Cup and got to the final of the European Cup. In fact he was only one game away from playing in every fixture that a club can possibly play in during the season. |

Oh dear. I guess you're right he's achieved nothing 
By the way he was born in Wales and isn't eligible to play for England. |

I thought Giggs winning it was quite imaginative. He has certainly contributed a lot to football and he surpassed Bobby Charlton's games for MUFC didn't he last year?

Yes despite playing for England as a schoolboy he has never been eligible to play for any England senior teams, be it under 17, under 21, B Team or full international as his parents and grandparents are all welsh.
He was eligible through one grandparent to play for either an African team or Carribean but I can't remember which.
Michael Owen had a similar problem he was raised and schooled in Wales but was born in Chester as it is the nearest hospital to where he lived. I think he also played for England schoolboys but that might have been because he went to Lilleshall.
They only changed the rules on this a couple of months ago.

So who did we all want to be Sports Personality that has achieved more than Giggs?
