Lewis was banging on about it the minute she won it and saying that there should be a female catergory.Wiggins deserves it more than Ennis IMO and yes,i dont particularly like Ennis after she didnt compete in the last commonwealth games...she cited the security crap but all other competitors competed.Wiggind won the tour de france,then went out and tried to help Cavendish win then went out and did his time-trial and got his gold...Ennis does her stuff then pulls out of the 110mtrs hurdles....sorry but Wiggins has achieved more and put his own chances aside to help another.


All the other top athletes competed in Delhi? The 100m was won by Lerome Clarke of Jamaica with Mark Lewis-Francis second. Must have missed them on the podium in London. Farrah was nowhere to be seen, despite winning the Europeans earlier in the season, Shelley-Ann Fraser-Pryce wasn't there, despite being World and Olympic champion. Also, she never cited security for not competing, it simply didn't fit in with her schedule, which she states in her book. Given they were in October, outside of the normal European season that sound feasible to me.

You are right she pulled out of the hurdles, saying she was done in after the heptathlon. In doing so she cost nobody a place, as there was only one other British athlete who had done the qualifying time and was eligible to enter.

As for this year's winner I'd agree with you and give it to Wiggins, followed by Farah and then Ennis.

got 9 out of 12. surprised at kath grainger and nicola adams on there - would have gone for laura trott as a double gold winner and probably brownlee but poulter played a huge role in the ryder cup. ben ainslie - forgot about him at the time i made my predictions, probably would have included him.

ok top 3 time, i'm going for an entirely predictable
1. wiggo
2. murray
3. ennis
