Remember to vote for fury

The thing with runners like Farah is they don't necessarily need to be doping because they have so many legal ways to manipulate their aerobic system if they have the team and money behind them, with altitude training, expensive high-tech 'oxygen tents' and all that stuff.
It's just as much 'cheating' as using drugs, in fact it's more so because it isn't as easily affordable and availabale, ... but it's not cheating because it's okay by the rules, go figure.

 

Murray got 5x as many votes as Fury.

 

No, Farah started to improve a lot a year or so before he got with Salazar, when he stopped being lazy like a typical UK runner and started training with some Kenyans.

Doping or not, he's the best runner we've ever had.
Yeah, I get it, you don't like refugees and immigrants or black people running for the UK, or even living here.

 

Farah should have won this award at least once anyway. It's kind of silly him being ignored so many times.

Fury shouldn't have apologised. Fury deserved to win this more than Murray. Best British heavyweight win since Lewis-Holyfield at least.

The award never had much credibility, imo. Some very strange results over the years.

 

That Farah never wins shows he's not accepted as British by Joe public. We're quite happy to vote in non natives as long as they were born here.

 

That might be true.

Joe Public = the same BBC-audience ****s that voted in Murray* and (in the past) Princess Anne and Zara Phillips.

Personally, my own method would be to vote for whoever is the best sports achiever of those nominated. It's not a Britishness award.

* Andy Murray, a Scottish separatist anyway.

 

The fact Farah is Muslim is a reason why the general public will never take to him, which is perfectly reasonable.
