We asked you, our authors,  to write about your Sporting Predictions for 2008 and you did. Lots of you. And now we are in a position to announce the the winners.

We wanted to know your thoughts on what might happen in the coming year in your favourite sports - and you provided some fascinating contributions. The standard was exceptionally high and the winners were chosen by Sportingo's editors based on the quality of the content.
