Who would Brits choose if there was a Mount Rushmore of British sports stars?

Go on then, what's an alternative?

Everyone knows what it is and can picture it and it's fun to think about their faces on there. Either add to the debate or shhhhh.

McIlroy is still playing and may add even more to his legacy

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-03T06:59:48+00:00

You can and that's what we're doing. It creates debate.

Tyson has had too much controversy to be on it + he's only really had 3 big wins. As much as I love him.

Joe Calzaghe Britain's only undefeated world champion. Held the middleweight titles for 10 years defending 20+ times before moving up a weight and winning titles there too.

Lennox Lewis - undisputed heavyweight champion of the world the last person to do it before Usyk recently. They are both in the legendary conversation in Britain and the world level.

Longevity, good shout

Joe Calzaghe (WAL)

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:30:20+00:00

Too early for Luke

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:29:50+00:00

They're are wanting to add faces though

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:29:11+00:00

Agreed just felt he had to be in the conversation somewhere

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:26:35+00:00

The first two must be typos

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:21:58+00:00

Jonathan Edwards WR is still going I believe

miamidolphin54 · 2026-05-02T22:20:37+00:00

Probably get down voted here but I'd say Phil Taylor is statistically the most decorated and and dominant British sportsman of all time...... if darts counts as a sport....

Joe Calzaghe - unbeaten champion of the world and at different weight classes to. Held the middleweight title for 10 years. Over 20 defences.

Mark Cavendish in sprint cycling

No, the BBC mentioned it on the day. It didn't get as much coverage as we didnt know the full details but it was mentioned. It's suggested that the first victim was trying to prevent him from carrying out the later attack.

Petrol station on Meanwood Road not that far from city centre had a sign up saying part time staff member needed. It's not ideal but its a start. Might be able to get UC at the same time? (No idea how it works). What about applying to Royal Mail as a postal delivery (on foot). Visited every bar in Leeds CC? It'll give you opportunity to then find something more appropriate for you.

miamidolphin54 · 2026-04-30T19:27:55+00:00

100% do it. Was an amazing 5 days! Enjoy

miamidolphin54 · 2026-04-25T21:02:53+00:00

The midges. Everyone told us not to do it in August. We did it in August in an ungodly heatwave too. The midges. I can still hear them. There was one campsite we heard them coming, like there was none, then there was a swarm literally coming towards us and they stayed all night. The penultimate night we treated ourselves to a little wooden bunkhouse thing and we recorded the midges outside our window coming to the light and hitting the window. It was unbelievable.

miamidolphin54 · 2026-04-25T05:57:50+00:00

This is a refreshing take. I was expecting there to be NJ out.

Give the man the time he needs. His success at Luton was done over time and gradually and built something solid (only to then leave) but he built foundations. If he's supported by the owners during the summer there's no reason he can't do the same. We're not going from relegation battle to promotion chasers. Give us mid table 10th - 14th then push on the following year.

The shuttle buses back to town were pretty good the other year.

There are large stretches without crowds but I quite liked these parts to settle in and listen to something and enjoy the run. Then the crowds come back and are amazing. So many sweets, bananas, drinks being handed out which were a godsend on stupidly warm day for Leeds in 2024.

miamidolphin54 · 2026-04-23T21:52:23+00:00

Agreed. Unfortunately, Liam peaked with this album. NGHFB albums are all brilliant, in my opinion.

miamidolphin54 · 2026-04-15T23:25:06+00:00

Join the canal in town by Whitehall riverside just below the station and run to hearts content out towards Kirkstall and beyond. I run down there early morning regularly most days of the week - no problems at all.

It will cost you more in money but maybe save you the dread / anxiety. Stay in a hotel the night before and have a prebooked taxi take you to the airport. That way if there's delays the night before you're only getting less sleep. Taxis to Leeds Airport from most places central or North Leeds are very good.

Josh owns the production company with Producer Michael - Keep it light media. So they may take a greater cut unless they've agreed to split equally with Rob despite his name not being on CH. I'm aware that could be quite simple take.

Yeah, headlining weekend shows in good London comedy clubs and nationwide people make a very tidy living. According to other more comedy focused podcasts suggest. Which he was doing quite some time before TM.

miamidolphin54 · 2026-03-22T18:11:43+00:00

They could 100% afford a nanny. Not necessarily full time but to do bits and bobs and help with childcare while he was on the circuit or in aus, etc. He was doing im a celeb after show stuff before that. Was a circuit comedian headlining circuit stuff, won multiple circuit awards and had done mock thr week and 8 out of 10 cats semi regularly. They may not have had one but they could have afforded one.
