As regards the others in my opinion it was going to be between Adlinton, Calzaghe, Hamilton and Hoy, all had a truly remarkable year.
One thing that does make me smile is the title sports "personality", then Andy Murray.  |
Ah - but he has spririt and passion; and we may become proud of him yet !
Calzaghe, I am reliably informed (not a fan of out-and-out contact sport), should have had a better appreciation, Hamilton has a few years to acclaim the title..... and - I just really liked Adlington.......
Hoy seems to me to be a quiet and committed stalwart and am glad he was recognised.
