True they will JR, but will they vote ? His achievements, while amazing, from a voting POV are a bit samey
Evens is a fair enough price for me Darlo made a fine point that the anti Murray brigade is likely to just give up |

How very dare you! It won't start properly until late October…I'll get Balders (co-inventor of the Mobot™) on board and there'll be no stopping this train.
Just need to find some wheels first. ![]() |

I'd theoretically join your campaign. Mo Farah is deemed the greatest athlete the UK has ever produced. He has just achieved something only one other man in history has done. What has Andy Murray done this year? He won one tournament that someone has to win anyway. On paper, he's done nothing special, especially if he wins nothing else all year, especially the US Open or End of Year championships. But I concede, Andy Murray will win it hands down.

That's my thinking...now just to convince the nation!

We're on to a losing cause.

Keep picking up blocks of Murray here - won't make me rich but it's absolutely 99.9% assured.

this sort of article could put doubt in voters minds as well:

I think froome more at threat from doping stories than farah
![]() I'm a layer of froome, but not a backer of farah really I think someone can sneak through and push them both down one What if Brad wins the TT at the world champs? ![]() |

Froch confirmed as fighting in november, will be big news

Lots more negative stuff for Froome of late
Sean Yates biog - wiggins threatened to quit after froome betrayed him I hope he doesn't win the wc road race, else I suspect he's going nowhere in spoty A wiggins win in the WC TT would make things very interesting, he'd surely have to get a nom |

Potential for Brownlee recognition this year?
they are very votable blokes |
|
By:
It's the fastest growing sport in the country but it doesn't get lots of air time - I'm not sure any other races other than today have been on BBC1 or 2 though I might be wrong, and it's still a very niche sport. Both brothers have also had better years than this year.

JB just edged out, doh

None of which matters Darlo, all about public profile which has risen dramatically
Don't matter now OC |

By:
there seemed a much bigger crowd for the great north run than for the triathlon, i suspect mo picked up a fair few votes today
for running through the rain. it would be interesting to see froome, wiggins and cavendish all nominated and have a market for which of the three got least votes ! |
|
By:
That would be most fun, yes. No chance for cav surely, but every chance Wiggins gets nommed - TOB win or WC tt win
|
|
By:
any chance we can get collingwood nominated ?
might get a few north east votes ! |

Bad luck wiggo, sadly that's probably it for him beating Froome in the vote

Ben Ainslie worth adding

Oh, already there

Could they get a film out by December
Daniel Craig as Ainslie? |

Female sports bod on Breakfast News said if America won Ainslie would challenge Murray for SPOTY...hope she bets on here. "The American SPOTY you mean" she was told which is about right.
