And after all that

I started putting together and writing up this list a few months ago, and the sporting world does not stand still. Several fabulous things have happened since then, which merit changes to the order. Furthermore, while making the list, I've sometimes had cause to rethink and re-assess - they're too high, they're too low etc.
So, just for the record, if I was making this list today, this is how it would be. A few changes here and there, not many. I've actually pushed it up to 250, just so everyone who was on the list at any point gets a mention. I've highlighted any notable differences - big jumps, big drops, new entries etc
