i think Lewis Hamilton looks the stand out bet as he came 2ND in an Olympic year and he is 15/8 to win f1 title so if you fancy him to win that you might as well take the 4/1 as there is no big sporting events taking place this year the ashes being the biggest one and i don't see that getting in Lewis Hamilton way if he takes down the title Andy Murray would have to take down a grand slam to win it and i don't think he is just ready to do that this season

If anyone even considers backing him, please seek immediate psychiatric help.

Titus Bramble is due a good year

[TightEnd]

Flintoff is a big price IMO, so is Pietersen. We have a chance of winning the Ashes, a decent chance and these two are the public faces in our rather hit and miss cricket team

this assumes Hamilton doesn't repeat. If he does I would expect him to win this as in most years winning the F1 Champ would have won him SPOTY with the Petrolhead bandwagon strong. Only an exceptional Olympic year stopped it this year.

[Nakor]

I like the 3 cricketers @66 and Haye @12's.

Haye could win and defend the heaveyweight title in the next year (could be main word), we can dream.

The Murray price looks very thin to me and I think he will win a grand slam, but if he wins Australia he will do enough in the rest of the year to annoy the public.

Stuart Broad to win the ashes as man of the series would be sweet.

AP to win the national and then SPOTY @100/1

AP to win the national and then SPOTY @100/1

The only way a national winning jockey could possibly win is if he carries the fkin horse and not the other way round.

Not if its AP - this is the only thing missing I am sure the GB public would love for him to win this and if he does he is SPOTY imo.  Obviously I am like shit at tipping so thic could perhaps be a great lay for someone with loads of dosh.

[Ironside]

murray will need toi win wimbledon this year to sin spoty and 5/2 is too skinny for him to win that

i cant see any compertition yet for hamilton apart from himself

Any grand slam wins it for him imo, short of a monumental effort by another person.

LOL bless you mugs ... this is SPOTY, it is voted on by middle class England ... thats why Princess Anne and her daughter have both won it ... never a chance of a Jockey winning apart from Frankie (as he is the only one with enough media exposure) or Bob Champion, but even he had to get cancer and ride a fkin horse that was one stop away from the glue factory around Aintree.

Save your money ... If you want to throw it down the drain, Back POULTER !

why is Kevin Pietersen in the betting he should come into the overseas section
there are not many sports that are not covered by the BBC that win the BBC spoty  but f1 is one them you just have to look at this year event a see how the show was put together to push the votes towards a BBC covered sport allways has been allways will and Hamilton still came 2ND and if he wins f1 they will have to put him on just when the lines are closing for him not to win or they would have to have Murray dressed as a clown playing tennis with Peter Kay on the show for 1hr

F1 is on the BBC next year.

[Maxriddles]

Just saw 9/4 on Bluesquare to win Australian Open and 2/1 for SPOTY 2009. If you fancied the 9/4 for the Aussie Open surely the SPOTY would be a better bet as winning any slam would surely secure this for him. He seems bang in form just now but if he doesn't get Aussie Open he'll probably give a decent showing in US Open too later in the year.
