Bloody Andy Murray. I mean, he's good, but he's good at a sport that NOBODY aspires to be good at. You never talk to an 8 year old who says "when I grow up I want to wear a little white PE kit and hit a ball back and forth over a net until another camp looking bloke can't hit it back". I blame the Scots as a whole, rather than Andy Murray. I mean, he didn't even win a grand slam last year. Alright he won the Davis cup, but that's a team event and they won the SPOTY team prize. But as the only Scot on the list all 5m (probably) voted for him. Wimbledon + Olympics + potentially Davis cup again... I think we're both pissing in the wind with our predictions the more I think about it.

They should say "yeah, you've done sh*t loads this year, but you've won it before when we were scraping the barrel so we're going to offer it out to someone else now". Or we should just give Scotland independence and let him with Scottish Sports Dull b****** of the Year as often as he wants. Edited by Part Time James (22 Aug 2016 4.32pm)

Edited by Part Time James (22 Aug 2016 4.32pm) Yeah, for once we should be finding spurious reasons to not include them. Normally we end up with "well she scored a goal at the WC, so she's in". I wouldn't be at all surprised if they do have their own one. The Welsh do and gave it to Michael Owen once IIRC.
