    It seems like these are dark times indeed for British sports. :

    Seems like slim pickings really, my vote would go to Darren Clarke or Ricky Hatton
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not sure.

    Not Ricky who is a great champion but Joe Calzaghi who is the most successful British fighter of all time with a record of 42 wins 0 losses with 32 by KO.

    I think Darren Clarke will get the nod however. Mainly due to the fact that he lost his wife to cancer earlier in the year before playing a major role in Europe's Ryder Cup triumph.
    TBH I wouldn't have a problem with that. He seems like a lovely guy and no mean Guinness guzzler either.
    Oh golly Oh gosh Had a lie on the couch with a nice bit o' posh from Burnham-On-Crouch:mad:

    Thumbs up

    Pity the WTCC is not on the BBC, then we would have a real world champion on the list. I bet they don`t even mention Andy Priaulx.
    real cars only power the rear wheels.
    Loeb for World Champion.(Again)
    Andy Priaulx for World Champion.(Again)

    Since when did Jenson Button have personality?
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    A lot of over-hyped but not exactly what you'd call successful sportsmen on that list.

    Jenson Button will get it, because he OMGOSH won 1 race.


    But it should go to Joe Calzaghe for sure.
