      I think nailed on. It's not going to be Tyson Fury, taking into account his threats of legal action against the BBC if he was even included in the nominee list.

        Raheem Sterling?
        Can't help but think they were going to put Lewis Hamilton on the list if he'd won, but stuck Raheem on there at the last minute instead.

          A joke again, no Cavendish, Jason Kenny, Josh Taylor, Joe Root & others

          Yet half of a pair and a random footballer!

            Still don't get why we are limited to the six candidates the BBC choose - it was far better when it was a free for all. Raducanu's got to be the favourite to win, but she's got Covid, so, given Fury's attitude towards the whole thing, there has to be a good chance that the winner won't be there to receive the award.

                They've already said there won't be an audience so I can't really see how they can have anyone else there either?

                      Sterling had a good Euros but a very quiet Premier League season. It's like they couldn't bring themselves not to have a footballer on the list.
                      Cavendish should be there surely.

                        footballers rarely win.

                          Why do you want to use it?

                            Raducanu, definitely. Don't see why it would be Sterling.

                              It's a silly competition and probably just a vehicle for the media to fill airspace. Would the best sportsman or sportswoman win if they have minimal 'personality'?
