Sports Personality of the Year 2006, Who'll win it. - TV Programmes

Simon Jackson · 31-07-2006, 18:24

My chioces after many high profile players have failed so far this year

Grahme Dott (2006 Snooker CHampion)

Phil Taylor (He is darts)

Brooks MIlson (Gretna owner for taking the club to the Scottish Cup final)

Scotland's Under 19's team from Saturday losing to Poland

David Walliams (fo swimming the English channel)

Javine Hylton (For being a record breaker in The Games)

Jade Jones (Men's winner in the games)

Pete and Chantelle (Big Brother winners)

Jennie Facloner (Winner of Only Fools on Horses)

Connor Travers (Youngest Countdown winner)

I don't suppose game shows and reality shows count?
But there's still the European athletics championship, The Ryder Cup and the US Open tennis to come.

stereoman · 31-07-2006, 19:01

If David Walliams wins for swimming the Channel then why not this guy, Ray Mouncey for running ten marathons in ten days!?

Most likely, it'll be Steven Gerrard for his FA Cup match-saving performance barring any recent or major British sportsperson achieving something significant in the next few months.

I don't think the BBC will allow David Walliams on the ballot.

If you are a gambler put your money on David Walliams

The very cute Steven Gerrard!!

Cent · 31-07-2006, 19:20

Why should Pete, Chantelle and the Countdown winner be nominated for SPORTS personality of the year?

I dont think Countdown is a sport to be honest.

batdude_uk1 · 31-07-2006, 19:35

How about Monty Pasner? He played really well in the last test match.

So well that you've already forgotten his surname?

I think David Walliams is a strong bet. Unconventional, but what he did really captured the public's imagination.

The rest of Britain's sporting acheivement in the past year amounts to basically nothing.

Chrisso · 31-07-2006, 21:48

Cristiano Ronaldo

paulspursman · 31-07-2006, 22:09

am i the only one who is thinking that this is the biggest pile of crap ever. how pathetic are your nominations

WillowFae · 31-07-2006, 22:26

Andy Murray?

ariusuk · 31-07-2006, 23:32

Colin Montgomery.

...and go to the bookies BEFORE the Ryder Cup.

Well, It's presented by a former sports presenter and a former Sports perosonality of the year show as well and sports are games and it's all about winning.

Here's a link to watch old shows from 1958-1990

Phil "the Power" Taylor ---come On..........................

Second Chance · 01-08-2006, 12:35

Phil won't win as he plays for the "other side" when it comes to DARTS". If he was a BDO player then he would have been nominated every year for the past decade. As he isn't the snobs who run the BBC ignore him.

He is the greatest dart thrower of all time yet has never had a sniff.........

I used to love the sports review but ever since the BBC lost the rights to all the big sports it has lost it's magic..........

Walliams done well but he is a camp comic not a sports star......

Winners will be:-

Personality of the year:-
Team of the year:-
Overseas personality:-

Oh yes they're all blank.............

It's because I no longer care..........

Addy2Hotty · 01-08-2006, 15:08

I don't particularly like him, but The Power should win for the years of being in the darkness where that TV channel is concerned. It's like stopping Premiership footballers being involved when they lost the rights to Match Of The Day. If i remember rightly, they paid over the odds for a few seconds of Rugby World Cup coverage a few years back.

If David Walliams wins it, it'll be politics nothing else. A BBC employee wins the award. What a disgrace it would be, he shouldn't even be at the awards ceremony. He is not a sportsman, he's an actor doing something for charity. It will truely prove how low the BBC's coverage has fallen.

I'm listing who I think should/sadly will win:-

Personality - Phil Taylor/David Walliams
Team - Wigan Athletic/Chelsea (or Europe if they win the Ryder Cup...as normal)
Overseas - Roger Federer/Jose bloody Moruinho

EDIT: and the person who suggested that Reality TV winners of fixed (and terrible) shows, has no idea about sport. Really no idea.

ianaug23 · 01-08-2006, 16:40

I think the point of the opening post was to demonstrate that if David Walliams was nominated, you may as well nominate reality TV stars and the Scottish U19's.

Hopefully the BBC and the public will see sense and nominate 'real' sportstars.

Even as a West Ham fan, I would think that Gerrard should win for his performance in the Cup Final. I can't think of any more outstanding performances this year in sport, unless someone else can think of one.

Simon Jackson · 01-08-2006, 18:00

Team of the Year: Scotland Under 19's, European Ryder Cup team, Gretna FC, Finnish Eurovision song contest winners

Overseas award: Roger Federer, Tiger Woods, Zidance Zidane, the dutch guy who won the BDO World Darts championship Jelle somebody was his name.

Coach of the Year: Scotland u19's manager, Jose Moruinho, Gordon Strachan, Gretna manager,

Helen Rollason Award: Pete from Big Brother as he has Tourette's Syndrome

Young Sports Perosonality of the Year: Connor Travers (Countdown winner)

and the main award

Pete, Nikki, Glyn, Preston, Michael Barrymore and Chantelle (Big Brother)

Bianca Gasgoine (Love Island)

Javine Hylton (The Games)

David Walliams

Phil Talyor

Graham Dott

David Carry (aberdeen swimmer)

It's true, Kirsty Howard won the 2004 Helen Rollason award

I cant work out if your having a laugh or not? Are you seriously suggesting BB winners are nominated for a sports award?

batdude_uk1 · 01-08-2006, 18:35

a "sport" is a physical activity.

"countdown" and "big brother" are not physical activities, they are game shows.
