Re: Mary Earps

It's really not worth getting worked up about. Many men and women have won it over the years ahead of others who've probably achieved more. There's no more logic to the winner than who wins I'm a Celebrity or Love Island.

Re: Mary Earps

Wow I'd missed that, not Ben Stokes or Ronnie O'Sullivan, but someone called Beth Mead?

Yes I've never watched it never will!

It lost any credibility (if it had any) when Michael Owen once won it who has the personality of dishwater.

Ryan Giggs has won it too. Imagine that now! Hasn't Sullivan won it? Surprised if he hasn't?

Re: Mary Earps

What the freak is Barton doing calling a fellow sportsperson a sack of spuds ?

He's a bit of a sad act these days

Re: Mary Earps

The Beeb treats it a bit more seriously than its reality, it a bit of a Christmas panto of an award, and history shows the vote has been manipulated by the public to suit whatever is en vogue. C'mon Princess Anne then her daughter has won it, the horsey royal set must have been postcard crazy back in the day, or automated dialing machines 20 years ago

Re: Mary Earps

So if it's for mediocrity as Barton says then I assume Barton has won it loads cos when you look in the dictionary for the definition of mediocrity there's a picture of him the same as when you look up loser and Kent (sic)

I don't think any Premier league regular could be called "mediocrity". It's an elite league, strongest in the world.

Sad really, desperately trying to retain some kind of relevance

Re: Mary Earps

if it is sports 'personality' then I guess anyone with the 'best' personality that does a bit of sport can put themselves forward.
As opposed to sports champion of the year which would include anyone who has actually won a world title / Olympic gold etc. England were european champions I believe - but that was a few years back now - so not sure that still counts.

Good luck to her and she has been great for womens football and an inspiration to getting girls into the game.
