Team of the year , odd I don't know one single name in the team , didn't even know they had won the World Cup.
Give the Beeb some credit , they are very tenacious with their agendas & propaganda. Thought Hamilton would get the most improved award as he has improved past Vettel having struggled in recent years to beat him. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

WTF is this thread about? Yes, there clearly is an agenda but it is not the one the anti-PC police has detected.
Here are the winners this millennium:
Notice the bias? It's not to women's sport at all. The BBC has clearly been overrun by the egg-chasing lobby. Take out the Olympic years, and rugby has won 5 out of 11. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

There seems to be a bias towards winning teams according to that list.

And a bias against Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish teams, but clearly the rugger buggers have got the game by the balls.

The whole event was a disaster. I'm all for promoting women's sport but this award was a joke, albeit in a weak year.

So it wasn't really a historical win another coxless team won in 2004

I'm not sure what's worse the England Women's Rugby Union team (who no one would be able to name a member of their team) winning it or giving it to the Ryder cup team ?
Golf is not even a team sport and in the Ryder cup they are already in the final and only have one other team to beat and a lot of the team aren't British It should actually be a club team and it not a country - does the team have to be British ? Give it to Real Madrid ? Give it to St Helens ? Don't be surprised if England's women's cricket team win it next year - the amount of money the ECB are pumping into the women's game they should be able to beat everyone and the BBC I'm sure would love to give it to them | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The scotch played a part in the triumph... some of the team wear jock straps.
