Tamesaint Posted 20 December, 2020 Share Posted 20 December, 2020 I live some way from the south coast but I can hear Ducky's snorts of derision about the programme from here. "2 birds presenting / one of them black / one of the nominees a bit of totty jockey / non white people doing a vox pop on Jordan Henderson" .... and that is in the first 30 minutes of the show. It would never have happened in the 1950's!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypochondriac Posted 20 December, 2020 Share Posted 20 December, 2020 surprised they didn't take the opportunity with no crowd to all take the knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 20 December, 2020 Share Posted 20 December, 2020 Really wish Hamilton would take a page out of Rashford’s book and learn some genuine humility, rather than continuously telling everyone how humble he is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 20 December, 2020 Share Posted 20 December, 2020 Assume the winner won't be based on personality again this year? (i.e. Ronnie won't win it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 20 December, 2020 Share Posted 20 December, 2020 I’d probably vote for Fury out of those 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just don’t scream ‘athletic prowess’ in the same way as any of the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamesaint Posted 20 December, 2020 Author Share Posted 20 December, 2020 Voted for Holly. She won't win but I want racing to get the higher profile. Think that the tax dodger will win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think snooker or darts have been the same since the players did a pint every frame. I’d like to see Ronny do a 147 10 pints in, much easier these days than in the Alex Higgins era Edited 20 December, 2020 by Turkish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get me wrong, I know jockeys have to be fit and light but I wouldn’t put them in that bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Controlling a couple of tons of horse power going at speeds of 30 plus mph several times a day is more onerous. 🙂 Tbh. I don't care who wins as long as it isn't Henderson!!
