    SPOTY tonight and its good to see its not just the usual suspects up for the award, though I expect one of the 3 high profile 'personalities' to win. As for team of the year only 1 winner and this will be controversial but is not the Lionesses - it has to the England (mens) cricketers who have had an unbelievable year.

    News that George Cohen has died, that leaves Hurst and Bobby Charlton from the 66 team

    Not the end-of-year roundup I was expecting...

    I remember around 25 years ago the gutter press harrumphing that he was selling his World Cup winner's medal, and at least one (if in doubt, assume The Sun) started mouthing off that he was a passenger in the final

    Apparently looking to secure your wife's financial future after you've had multiple cancer scares is irrelevant if the red tops can sow fears of a 1966 winner's medal being bought by someone French

    I know Talk Sport can be pretty bad but I have gone there because the alternatives were running out and right now Dean Saunders is on. Love him, says it how it is and no bullshit.

    I like Danny Kelly, the two (ones a Chelsea fan and one is a spurs fan) who do an afternoon show and max Rushden with Barry Glendening on a Saturday and Sunday morning but find the rest a radio version of click bait designed to get people to phone in. Ain't listened for ages tbh...any radio station with Cundy, Simon Jordan, Agbonlahor and Ohara to name just a few has issues

    Other than the ones you listed, I find it impossible to listen to. It is an unending procession of stupidity...like ITV or The Sun.

    Void Week brain strikes again: I just had to email somebody to tell them to ignore my job application, what with Seattle being a bit of a commute from Croydon...

    Talksport ain’t that bad. The like was for your last sentence.
    I can cope with chat about sport - however inane. I can’t hack ITV or The Sun.
    I could listen to Atherton and Hussain talk about cricket for hours. It’s a shame football doesn’t have commentators of similar standing.

    Our 4th place is looking increasingly insecure. We need to find some proper form or 5th & 6th if not 7th is more likely.

    What’s behind this pattern of being lacklustre in the first half and handing opponents a one goal start at least?
    Happening too often to be just a meaningless statistic

    At least have the decency to give me a reason as to why my comment was deleted!

    3rd time I’ve had to ask now.

    It’s been increasingly insecure for weeks/ months to be honest. Conte’s been doing his best to make sure of that. We just need to thank Kane, Hojbjerg and Bentancur that they’re doing their best to prevent the decline.

    It should be obvious. Attack the argument not the poster. I stopped it before it escalated.
