Ireland won two competitive games and McClean scored one goal

Hard to understand except that so many are in thrall to the Premiership that they think even playing for a mediocre team merits being Sports Personality of Year

And he barely gets a game for them.

It's Sports Personality not Sports Ability. He definitely has personality. Not necessarily for the right reasons depending on your persuasion.

It's called sportsperson of the year no mention of personality.

He may have been top irish footballer but nowhere near being the top sportsperson in the country this year.

My mistake. Seen it referred to as Personality but must be mix up with BBC.

No way should he have got it.

SHEEDY

Mcclean was one of the stand out performers in a mediocre ireland team and wears his heart on his sleeve in every game. But sportsperson of the year?? No chance.

Thought Joe Canning would have shaded it but James is a great role model - courage of his conviction on and off the filed.
