SPOTY watchers ahoy

[PermanentTemporary]

I feel like there must be another thread!

Loving the Young Sports nominations - go Mia

Ooh netball. Possibly my least favourite sport ever

Big hearts to Desmond Smith. What a guy.

Amazing

Just read the other nominations online for the award.

Some incredible people!

Fatima!

Who do you want to win the award? I’ve voted for KJT.

I'm torn. Tempted by KJT, Stuart Broad and Mary Earps

I’ve voted for Mary.

I don’t care who wins, as long as he’s a 6’6 fast bowler who has taken more than 500 test wickets for the mighty 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, and more Aussie wickets than anyone else ever.

Harsh!! 😂
But then I play, and so does my DD.

Is this not usually on a Sunday night?

My netball antipathy is completely unfair. Let's just say my old netball scar still gives me gyp [stares meaningfully into distance]

Watched KJT, Mary and Stuart again. Crying more. Not really helpful.

Oh too late. Phew.

Yes, it has always been on a Sunday but the BBC have moved it to midweek this year. I don’t know why, but it may be because it has hardly been a vintage year for British sport, and sport on the BBC in particular. McIlroy has been nominated but hasn’t even bothered to show up.

MARY 🏆

Me too

Slight gasp at her dress but when I was fit long ago I wore very little either

A classic year, a fab top 3 and Fatima was an absolute hero

I voted for Stuart Broad.

Why is Mary Earps dressed in a cheap underwear outfit?

A good night for West Bridgford. Top two in SPOTY.

Disappointing that the woman who let a Spanish goal in to win the World Cup gets SPOTY.

That dress 😬😩

She saved a Spanish penalty, she won the Arnold Clark cup and the Finalissima on penalties 4-2. She is a role model, her shirt sold out in minutes and millions love her amongst other things. And your criticism about the dress has no impact on the award. You probably look like crap and would kill to be able wear a dress like that. Bore off

No love, I don’t look like crap. Role Model? Some sweary assed spitting chav, I am not. Thanks for the nasty insults cos I don’t like her 🙄

So many others deserved it over her, I don’t know too much about the rest of the candidates but as I said earlier I worked for KJT, her story of coming back from a massive injury as an underdog to reclaim her world title is much better than someone from a losing team in a huge match.

Love Mary Earps! She got my vote and I'm so glad she won.
