Sports Personality shortlist announced 3:35pm on 02 Dec 2008 Firstly, Just to point out 1 thing that a lot of people are missing here - The shortlist of 10 was decided by journalists from the major newspapers independant of the BBC.

Secondly - We should just realise that this year is phenomonal with respect to the level of sportsmen and sportswoman who have excelled at their respective sports. It is a shame that a lot of people have missed out but in general terms the list is about right.

I for one cannot see past Chris Hoy - Not just for his 3 Gold Medals but for his general dominance of sprint cycling over the last 4 years - people should remember that his favoured event was dropped from the 2008 Olympics and he had to readjust and then dominate again
Maradona lights up Scotland friendly 12:14pm on 12 Nov 2008 Oh Chick,

Some basic English comprehension please in your pseudo journalistic piece please.

1 sentence is not a paragraph.

It looks stupid.

Or are you shouting at the PC as you type.

And, for the content - banal and cliched as usual. Even to mention Kris Boyd in the same piece of writing as Maradonna, Pele, Best, Cruyff and Billy Mehmet is outrageous. He is not even fit to lace Billys boots.

Kris Boyd made a choice - he walked away, he was not pushed, he was not asked to go, he was just overlooked in favour of another player. Now we can debate for hours the decision of the manager, but that is not the point. Boyd had to make a choice, show the manager that he made a mistake and try harder (the stand up and be counted choice) or walk away and turn his back on his country and comrades (the big bairns choice)

Now history will record that decision but history will also do something else and that is forget about Kris Boyd.

He had his chance, he made his choice and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say this "For pitys sake Chick get over it"
Last stop before the Euros 2:50pm on 28 May 2008 Live just over the German Border and a lot of fans are booking hotels/camp sites in Southern Germany and then travelling into Switzerland for the games - cheaper to live.
