You know that the year has just flown bye when you suddenly realise it's nearly time for this annual event.

Question is what weightings do you put on the following and who would your Personality of the Year be.

Achievement in their particular sport

Personality

Nigel Mansell won this one year so I would estimate the weightings of achievement v personality to be somewhere in the region of 100%/0%.

I can't answer the second part, it's difficult to think of anyone in sport today quite as dull and boring as Nigel Mansell. Possibly Neil Lennon.

You haven't heard him interviewed on Sportscene on BBC Scotland obviously - if you missed the match it is impossible to tell whether they won 9-0 or lost 9-0.

Phew kevmclean2001 ! I thought for a terrible moment that we were going to have another Lennon post ;D.

I take it from your choice of number 1 that you place a high weighting on achievement.

I think it should be John Terry, he knows how to play the game on and off the pitch.  ;)  :)
