Sixty on the start sheet. I'm thinking a group stage with ten groups of 6 - the alternative (if my maths are right) is 28 round 1 games

It's a good one - it occurred to us we'd never done SPOTY. I was amazed to see Steve Redgrave only won it once.

Most names were at least familiar - but a few exceptions back in the early days:

Anita Lonsbrough (1962)
Dorothy Hyman (1963)
Sir Chris Chataway (1954)

I'm sure I should know the last name but don't.

There was only one name that made me roll my eyes :

Joe Calzaghe (2007)

Must have been a *really* crap year for sport.
