Fitz Aug 2012 2:02pm, 13 Aug 2012 192 posts	0 Fitz Expect a flaming but... Usain Bolt. Mugging into every camera he sees. "Amusing" chatter / teasing with stewards and kit-box kids at track-side. Self-declarations of legendary status. Like a very very fast cross between Thierry Henry and Paul Gascoigne.

Running fast does not make you a "gangster rapper", so cut out the lame mugging to cameras and the gormless "signature poses" and leave that to thick Premiership footballers.

Regular listeners of FT will know about this one. What national 'treasure' do you feel would be better on a skip rather than on a pedestal?

Someone (an MK Dons supporter) proposed AFC Wimbledon, about whom everyone gets misty eyed but he hated.

Other nominations included Bruce Forsyth and Seb Coe.

We were discussing this on the Rugby Wire (whch unforgivably is *not* called "y wifren rygbi ") as Martin Johnson was nominated.

It was suggested that a wider audience might enjoy the challenge.
