Sports Personality? Sorry, I just don't get it. If they're good at their sport, they're good. End of. We don't vote for the best snooker playing comedian, or the top ventriloquist who's also good at maths, do we? Waste of money. etc etc

Giggs - shoe in. The BBC have been setting him up all year for it.

Strauss will be part of the 'Team of the Year' for the Ashes.

Button will be second. Murray third.

The rest are likely to suffer from the "Who?" factor.

The title of "Sports Personality" was somewhat devalued when Nigel Mansell won it.

I think Strauss should win. How they won the Ashes with all that saffa rabble in the team I'll never know.
