Surrey Phil Dec 2023 10:16pm, 12 Dec 2023 10,056 posts	0 Surrey Phil No disrespect whatsoever to the candidates but am I wrong to feel a bit disappointed with this year's shortlist? A few have had a good year but some I really don't get (I won't say which ones just yet). Stuart Broad (cricket), Frankie Dettori (horse racing), Mary Earps (football), Alfie Hewett (wheelchair tennis), Katarina Johnson-Thompson (athletics) and Rory McIlroy (golf).
Foxy Dec 2023 7:11pm, 19 Dec 2023 34,752 posts	0 Foxy A poor line up this year - obviously more about personality than success - Josh Kerr is a World Champion as is Tyson Fury. KJT is the most deserving of those nominated but Mary Earps is 1/10 to win it. An Italian Jockey, retiring cricketer & golfer that hasn’t won a major in 9 years, Alfie Hewitt won it all !
