BBC Sports Personality of the Year (SPOTY) 2015

Murray now gone and Joe Root flies in to replace him @ around 12's, same price Froome is averaging; who now becomes 4th fav.

I wouldn't fancy any individual from a team sport either Colbro unless it was a spectacular individual effort like Bothams.

Best price for Froome is now 6's.

Nice one Slick, that's looking a great bet. Best priced 1/7 to win TDF now. I've jumped on his SPOTY price just now @9 Betfair

GL too Punt.

Barring any accidents I'd say Froome has has the Tour De France sewn up, It'll just be my luck that he get's caught doping in the meantime between now and SPOTY.

Going through the other outsiders, I wouldn't be surprised to see Tyson Fury beat Klitchko, Not that Fury's much kop, just that Klitchko must be nearing the end of his career by now, that would rocket Fury up the SPOTY leader board I reckon.

You could be right about Fury shortening up but even then i dont think he'd be that popular. It'll be all about Antony Joshua next year.

I also took Justin Rose @ 51, just in case he wins the open.

I like Anthony Joshua, seems a decent chap unlike the lump of lard called Fury.
Joshua looks a great prospect albeit physically looking a bit like Frank Bruno, unlike our Frank though Joshua actually looks like a boxer in the ring and can box and move, whereas Frank was rather static.

Froome 2nd favourite now best price 5/1

Hamilton still favourite, on a head to head I'd be more worried about McCoy, considering Hamilton won it last year, plus he's a Nob.

You can say that again!! boom boom

Well that Froome's part of the bargain done and dusted, I just hope the great British public now appreciate his efforts rather than some cnut driving around in a tin can.

He should win it, he deserves to win it but with him being plastered with Team Sky logo's i wouldn't be surprised to see the beeb give him the worst pitch on the night.

I'm a tad late in posting this but I'm also on at 12's thanks to whoever mentioned Froome. Fingers crossed

Good luck Kegs.

He's still 7/2, i find that a bit worrying. After his achievement you'd of thought he'd be a shade odds on, no?

Maybe but I should imagine a feat like that would be considered for the SPOTY Team award, I still think Mcoy is the biggest danger.

It's all athletics drugs scandals at the minute. I can see it dragging on through til Xmas too.

Here's the top 16 in the betting at present, i wonder how many will end up in the final 10?




Frankie Dettori has been back to his very best this season, can he make the final 10?
He's had 17 big race wins so far this year, including the Derby, he's been in the form of his life. He's netted over £3.2M in prize money so far.
He's 100/1 at present, i wouldn't be surprised if his odds shorten from now until December. Once a few more have been knocked a side, he could end up under 20/1. He might be the late money.
