Goldie03 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 So this year will be interesting. Apparently current odds: B Wiggins 5/4 M Farah 9/4 A Murray 5/2 J Ennis 8/1 D Weir 20/1 E Simmonds 35/1 R McIlroy 100/1 C Hoy 100/1 S Storey 100/1 I'd go: Murray, Wiggins, Farah, McIlroy, Ennis, Hoy That order maybe I think I agree but take out McIlroy and probably move Hoy before Ennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick sheep Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Wiggins, Murray, Farrah, Ennis, Hoy Diddy competition anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CtS Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Given the enormity of both men's achievements, the award should be shared between Murray and Wiggins this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kowalski Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Given the enormity of both men's achievements, the award should be shared between Murray and Wiggins this year. But Tour de France has an element of it being a team sport surely? Murray's achievement is the greater in my opinion. Farah and Weir's achievements are also brilliant.

bloo_toon_red Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 But Tour de France has an element of it being a team sport surely? Murray's achievement is the greater in my opinion. Farah and Weir's achievements are also brilliant. I don't think the team aspect is strong enough to take away the individual achievement, the TdF is among the most gruelling sporting events around and no UK sportsman has ever won it. Wiggins also won the Olympic Road Race on top of all the other championships and medals he has won over the years. I would love Murray to win it (and I think that he will) but at this moment in time my vote would go for Wiggins. That might change if Murray goes on to with the World Tour Finals in November.

Tyrant Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Wiggins's achievement is amazing but I hope Murray wins it. I just can't see it happening because a lot of the guffy knobs dislike him. He deserves it. He's a fucking hero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I don't suppose there were any real surprises in the short list. The bookies seem to be going with Wiggo as favourite, then Farah, Murray, Ennis and Weir. Personally hoping for Farah, Murray or Weir.

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Could be any of them but Wiggins does seem to be where the smart money is going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CtS Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I'll be amazed if Murray gets in the top 3, even if I do think he deserves it. I predict Wiggins, Farrah, Ennis in that order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Are you suggesting somebody could win it posthumously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
