Ach, damn. Set it up to record but it didn't kick in. Dang technology. Remind not to stay up 'til 4 again.

The Highlights are on after the premiership if that's any help.

No - you are wrong there.

An OBE or an MBE would not make him Sir Wilkinson.

They might as well Knight David Beckham. The country loves him..

Jonny Wilkinson is more deserved of Sports Personality, than David Beckham. He hasn't done anything that spectacular for England this year. (Maybe England fans could pick out something, but..)

I thought you only get Sir if you are knighted. Sure he can stick letters after his name. Apparantly I can't ignore rugby, won't be that long until the Six Nations. It'd be funny if Scotland went and beat England. Sure they did that afer 1966.

It is a one horse rase for Sports Personality of the year. Wilkinson deserves it because he scored the most points out of anyone in the world cup - and 15 in the final.

I wouldn't think he'd get an MBE or CBE or anything - but Clive Woodward will definitely be knighted. Deservedly aswell, as my new found knowledge of rugby tells me that he turned the england team from a bag of sh*te into world champions in 6 years.

we can give them every award but that doesn't mean I'll pay any attention to domestic rugby or any of that bollocks. My rugby viewing is over for a good few years and it's back to supporting our under-acheiving, overpaid england football team...

we qualified for the european championships undefeated and beckham captained us? roonaldo may have a chance too.. (you never know).

the european championships is a much bigger event than the rugby world cup and will be covered more. people are deluded if they think rugby will become anything more than a posh persons sport.

The award should really go to who has achieved the most in the last year, beckham may be the biggest celebrity or whatever, but he's achieved * all this year that people will remember him for

I'd love Johnson to get it actually, being from Leicester and all that.
