Team of the year might go to Liverpool...
What about Andy Murray for young sports personality? I'm afraid I don't know who Theo Walcott is...

What a load of nonsense. Much as I hope Andy Murray is going to do great things for British tennis he should not be in this.

I dont think that individuals that are in a team should win the individual award, it was a team effort to win the ashes and the european cup, not flintoff or gerard.
Anyhoo, waste of time, and how on earth does theo walcott win young person's, he's done next to nowt at southampton, yes soutampton in the championship, yes big thigs are expected, he hasn't done them. Why Murray was not in your person's I'll never know, he has achieved far more at his sport than theo has so far. There must be more deserving youngsters in their fields?
