I'm so sick of hearing about Andy Murray every bloody year, and its going to happen for the next 10 years every bloody wimbledon or major tournament he's in.
Blah blah blah Murray blah blah I'm so sick of the media hyping him I'd prefer anyone else won.
And you just know we're going to hear about it all the time if he does win anything and its not like he's even English he's blimmin Scottish and our Tennis players suck ( whats tim henman ever going to win ) and you just know the Scots will be crowing about  it for decades if he ever wins anything.

I don't know why Tennis and Athletics are still represented by 'Great Britain' instead of England, Scotland etc... The Olympics are being held in London, how many Scottish people will class the 2012 Olympics as their 'Home games'? None!

I Think Murray is going to be a superb tennis player (if he gets himself a decent coach).

And i think it can only be a good thing for british tennis.

enman gave us all some excitement over the years at wimbledon and he is now at the wrong end age wise.

So I hope he gets right up in the top 20 and keeps british tennis alive.

But why British Tennis?

I agree about Murray.  So far I am not a fan.   I have a fear that for the remainder of my natural life, he will be a large feature on Scottish TV.  When someone wins something in Scotland, that is a ticket for the rest of their lives to be interviewed and paraded in front of the cameras.  We worship people who do well at anything.   Just wait until  tank or another Scot wins the WSOP.  They will be on every news report from that point on. 

I hate that aspect of Scottish sport in general. 

I hope Murray wins loads.

He will have to do well to out-do Henman. People have a tendency to dismiss Henman because he has not won a Grand Slam event (and now never will) but he does have an enviable record.

4 Wimbledon Semi-finals
French Open and US Open Semi-finals in the same year
ATP Masters Title (Paris, where he defeated Federer and Roddick en-route)
Former World No. 4

Plenty of players would love to have that on their CV.

Very disrespectful. Dislike him because he's Scottish? He's a damn lot better than Tin Henman & will achieve more too. He's beating #3 seed Roddick as I speak, if that';s not world class I don't know what is.

 ;iagree;

2 sets to nil,go on tcheucter boy

Funding. Same as athletics.

I like Murray he has personality unlike Henman.

Nationality doesn't matter to me.

about 4 million scots will treat the 2012 olymipics as our home games seeing as you asked

as for the 1.5 million who wont consider the games in our NATION thats there proble

GREAT BRITAIN is my NATION SCOTLAND is my COUNTRY

Tremendous talent, going to get better physically too...still growing


couldn't care less if he was English, Welsh, N Irish or Scottish. He's a brit and he SHOULD win grand slam titles.

because there is a BRITISH tennis federation that is reckonised world wide

most team sports the british nation splits down country barriers which is a good thing as it allows the UNITED KINGDOM to field 4 teams where as most NATIONS only get to field 1

are you just upset because you know that england will never be good enough to hold the world elephant polo title without scotland

Great win against Roddick ... Good luck to him.

 insert Tim for Andy
 
 insert Henman for Murray
 
 insert Scottish for English

 insert English for Scottish

 insert ( we dont have ANY good players ) in brackets

 and insert English for Scots

 and thats how WEVE been feeling for the LAST 10 years.

I cannot believe anyone took my post seriously.
Read my posts in the ABE thread :/ jeez.

Basically it was "replace england football team with Murray and switch in ABE arguments..."

I've been cheering murray on throughout and hope he makes it to playing federer or the finals, whichever comes first.

reminds me of another situation!

If you read my above post you'd know why! :p

after i read one of your posts a while back i couldnt read anymore, or take you seriously ever again.

 what post was that dave?

One :)

Love the 'lympics

Had a celebratory piss-up when London got it.

Seeing as we own scotland he is one of us isn't he??

because we'd all be even worse separately!

 :D

Hypocrits! As a British subject, with a BRITISH passport and of British nationality, I want British sport to do well against the rest of the world.

As for the comments about scottish TV hype - I take it that its obviously not the same south of the border! Someone told me England won the world cup in 66. Bloody hell! They kept that quiet!

mikky, embarassed 2 b English after readin this post.

Ha ha ha ok then, just ask long shanks great great great great great great....great grandson what happened the last time some one tried to own us?

Remember a dude called Big Willy Wallace!

This is what I feel as well mikky.  These are almost the exact words that I would use, apart from the " Hypocrits" part.  Have you somehow managed to get inside my brain and steal my thoughts?   This happened with Tightend a month or so back, he said something I was just about to say.   :D

Isn't he the chap that was hung, drawn and quartered for not behaving himself? :)

After being subjected recently to his performance  in 'What Women Want'
I fell hung,drawn and quartered is far too good for him   ;)

 Td Th

if your english then yes thats what happened, cos thats what youve been taught to believe....

...if your scottish however, youll know differently

Willy Wallace WAS hung drawn and quartered ....Tikay told me ...and he should know, he was in the crowd ;)

cant wait till blonde bash 3 - we certainly wont be short of topics of conversation between us all

 ;goodvevil;

I will do my talking over the buffet table Laz... you are welcome to join me :)

remember your manners now kev, no talking with your mouth full...

 8)

I have impeccable manners, i never talk with my mouth full ... which probably explains why i dont talk much ;)

Typical scotland - world class centre forward in Wallace but the campaign eventually amounts to nothin and the team turn on him
