Andy Murray

[bridge too far]

Andy Murray has broken Rafael Nadal's serve TWICE in the opening set!!!!!

[bridge too far]

He's taken the first set!

[Deppo]

Good stuff. Used to be against him but I've got over it now.

[bridge too far]

Now two sets up!!!!!!!

[saint lard]

Murray,two sets up.Blimey.

[tombletomble]

He is playing amazingly!

[bridge too far]

He is playing amazingly!

He's 'in the zone', so they say :)

[tombletomble]

Just been broken though

[saint lard]

Nadal,broken Murrays serve in the third set.

[Bath Saint]

Murray will lose this match 3-2 and then I can go back to calling him a has-been.

[Dark Sotonic Mills]

If he wins it's a great performance from a fantastic British player. If he loses it's because he is a useless Scots w*nker.

[Saintandy666]

I think the rain break could be better for nadal, unless he comes outs and starts like he did today again.

[saintwarwick]

Murray will lose this match 3-2 and then I can go back to calling him a has-been.

As he's number 4 in the world that makes a lot of has beens in tennis.

[saint lard]

He's that, either way.

[dubai_phil]

Ah the old rain break trick, always a good one to use when playing a Brit in an important tennis match.
We all know what happens next don't we
:-)

[Dark Sotonic Mills]

He's that, either way.

Yeah, fair enough...

[saintwarwick]

Play will resume 9.00pm BST tomorrow.

cheating ****..............




















what was the question?

[Rattlehead]

Even the Jocks hate this c*nt, he isn't disliked because he's Scottish. He's a miserable c*nt. It doesn't matter where he is from, he is a miserable c*nt. Nobody likes him because he's a miserable c*nt.

I challenge anyone to find a picture of the miserable c*nt smiling.

Tbf he kinda looks like an early 80s McEnroe and it seems we can't get enough of the Super Brat on telly commentary at Wombledon these days. I wanna see Murray throw a few mega fits like McEnroe did for a bit of real tennis entertainment.

Seems as if he isn't the only one. Btw, any chance of using expletives just a little less. You've made your point. But even with the word filter we can work them out.

[saintkiptanui]

Jock ****MMMM have to agree, why the in allahs name our we getting behind a sweaty sock marlon dingle lookalike,I 've had it with you guys/

[saint_stevo]

I quite like him, and for one cheer him on in all the major tournaments, he is British, good enough. Didnt see anyone complaining Chris Hoy was Scottish at the Olympics.....

And now we know why he doesn't smile.

[AndyNorthernSaints]

Murray has proved that he will win a major soon, maybe even this one. I thought he played outstanding tennis yesterday.
As usual us Brits love to hate anyone who is successfull in sport, preferring brave but unlucky losers most of the time. Who cares if he doesn't smile FFS. Don't remember Borg or McEnroe smiling during matches? well not until they were lifting the trophy.

I'm in the pro-Murray camp. He's a winner and he does not give a sh*t about anyone else, he's doing it for himself, not Scotland not England or Great Britain. I find him honest and refreshing, though admitadly he is a miserable so and so. He's kinda like a British Johnny Mac (Minus any charm). :)

He is doing it for himself and I am fully supportive of him - Go Murray!!!

Thanks to the Yanks for putting the final on at 22.00pm BST tomorrow night though - helpful.

Tim Henman would kick his ar5e in a street fight.

[Saintandy666]

I like Andy Murray, he can be abit miserable, but not all the time, an dI think it's mainly his accent. And as for has-been, he's on the up, first grand slam semi, won his first masters the other week. Maybe in about 10 years you'll be able to call him a has been after he has achieved many great things.

I've never understood the Murray hate, but I just can't take anyone who routinely wears black trainers seriously. Never seen a pair of black trainers that didn't look absolutely bloody awful.

Bit of waste of your three posts to say things that have already been said. :D

[jawillwill]

Murray has matured a lot over the last couple of years. I genuinely feel sorry for people if they still don't like him for spurring on a historic rivalry between the english and the Scots.

He's also a cracking player.

C'mon Andy Murray! :D

[saintwarwick]

Greg Rusedski all over again. Let's see if he can beat Mr Inconsistent.

I'll disregard the Rusedski remark as there is no comparison but I'm trying to work out how you can call Roger Federer inconsistant. 15 majors (Wimbledon 2003/04/05/06/07, US Open 2004/05/06/07, French open 2006/07/08 and Australian open 2004/06/07), a total of 55 tour wins plus 237 consecutive weeks at number one in the rankings and all this at the grand old age of 27, if that's inconsistant I'd hate to see his consistant record.

[St Landrew]

Well done Andy Murray. He may not be blessed with the ideal personality, to keep everybody entertained, but he can obviously play tennis bloody well. Players don't fluke wins over people like Nadal.

[saintwarwick]

Absolutely agree, he is now number four in the world and has just soundly beaten the number one in the world, something you don't fluke, well done Andy and hopefully you can go one better tonight. It won't be easy but only two players can get to the final and to do that you have to be a bit special.

[OttawaSaint]

Well done Andy Murray. He may not be blessed with the ideal personality, to keep everybody entertained, but he can obviously play tennis bloody well. Players don't fluke wins over people like Nadal.

Exactly, there weren't too many Americans complaining about Sampras' personality when he was winning.

I can see that it sticks in the throats of a few on here that he is Scottish.

[skintsaint]

I can see that it sticks in the throats of a few on here that he is Scottish.

Murray, of course, has gone on record as saying he would support, "anyone but England" and therefore lost any support I would have given him.

Fair enough, but it doesn't mean that people should be racist or abusive towards him.

You have taken your stance and that is fine, but it is those who are hypocritical about it that I am calling out.

I do hope he wins tonight, but it doesn't change the fact that he is a **** and a miserable sod

^^^^^What he said^^^^^^

[Ponty]

I can see that it sticks in the throats of a few on here that he is Scottish.
I don't think his nationality is a problem, it's his attitude about "anyone but the English," that gets up people's noses tbh. Contrast that with quadruple Olympic champion Chris Hoy, a Scot, who when asked if he'd like to represent Scotland rather than GB in the Olympics said, "No, I'm proud to be a Scot but I'm proud to be a Brit too!"

[Colinjb]

To echo a few comments already posted. He may be a mardy f**ker, but fair play to him. He has a lot of talent is is finally starting to use it fully.

[Saint Martini]

[bridge too far]

I think that those 'in the know' know that he was being sarcastic with those comments about England.

According to those who know him, he's not a dour Scot at all, just a young lad who's still maturing.

In any event, he's a world class tennis player - not a comedian or a winner of a beauty contest. We should judge him on that talent and nothing else.

I thought that game last night was one of the most exciting tennis matches I've ever watched (and I've watched a few). Murray's play was sensational.

[Appy]

I hope he wins to be honest. About time a brit tennis player showed some killer instinct.

[equalizer]

If he wins I guess that in twenty years time all the chavs will be wearing, Andy Murray polo shirts! :D

[Hacienda]

It was during the last World Cup when being interviewed at Wimbledon.

[Jillyanne]

It was during the last World Cup when being interviewed at Wimbledon.

Wasn't he being asked if he was supporting Trinidad & Tobago because of Jason Scotland and he said he would support any of the teams apart from England.

However, go Murray, hope he wins tonight.

[Bath Saint]

Thought this might interest some of you who berate Murray for being 'anti-English'.

From Wiki, but if you go to the website, you'll find the references


National identity
Murray identifies himself as "Scottish, but also British".[4][5] Prior to Wimbledon 2006, Murray caused some public debate[54] when he stated that he would like to see "anyone except England" win the 2006 World Cup. He received large amounts of hate mail on his website as a result.[55] Murray subsequently explained that his comments were said in jest in response to provocation from an English reporter who had asked if Murray would be supporting Scotland in the World Cup.[56] The reporter had asked the question in the knowledge that Scotland had not qualified for the tournament. Murray protested that he is "not anti-English and never was"[4] and he expressed disappointment over England's elimination from the 2006 World Cup by Portugal.[57]

In an interview with Gabby Logan for the BBC's Inside Sport programme, Andy said that he was both Scottish and British and was comfortable and happy with his British identity.[58] He said he saw no conflict between the two and was equally proud of them. He has also pointed out that he is 1/4 English with some of his family originating from Newcastle, his coach is English and that his girlfriend, Kim Sears, is English.[59]

And of course, Wiki is completely neutral with no input allowed from 3rd party individuals. It is inevitable he would want to backtrack on his statement. After all, he is a sportsman in the "entertainment" business, and the last thing you want to do is alienate punters, isn't it? Too late for me and a lot of others I'm afraid. He also looks patently ridiculous when he opens his gob.

Why is that relevant? The first and only thing he wants to do is to win major trophies.

I don't suppose he gives a flying f**k what 'punters' think TBH.

But as Bath Saint says, and as has been widely reported by sensible journalists, it was a tongue in cheek comment. However, irresponsible sections of the media chose to make it into something it wasn't.

Aren't some people on here forgetting that English is not the same as British? Wouldn't it be entirely possible to support anyone but England in one type of competition (like football) and support GB in lets say the Olympics? Wouldn't it even be logical since England are one of the main rivals of Scotland in some sports when at the same time they are part of the same team in others?

[Durleyfos]

I hate Andy Murray.

There, I said it.

A good way of using my third post of the day.

I heard the quote and it sounded like what it quite clearly was; a tongue in cheek remark designed to wind up the hard of thinking and take the p1ss out of knee-jerk nationalism. It seems to have worked very well.

He's got a boring voice, but he's a superb tennis player and last night's closing sets were great to watch. Here's hoping for another great match tonight.

dont mean to be rude...but that is one of the most patronising posts I have read in a long time..


Peoples dislike for murray is nothing more than the chip on the old shoulder the scots have had for years which came to light in quite a big way before the 2006 world cup....and some have had enough..

scotland is one of the most openly racist countries I have been to...and I have been all over the world.



me, personally...I hope he wins as I think he is alright and a bloody good player...However, I can fully understand why many english folk dont like him...

Being allegedly 'anti English' is not the same as being openly racist, and having lived in Scotland for 25 years, fail to see where you come up with that comment from?

NOT being allowed to cheer when watging an england game as they "did not want that kind in their pubs"...

being ignored at fast food outlets and jokingly told by another customer, "you should at least try and put on a scottish accent and you might get served"..

um, that disabled kids being abused during the world cup and got blue paint thrown on him whilst he was in a wheel chair...

I could go on, the racism against the english is so bloody blatent and allowed it was alarming..

I am Scottish but have an English accent (went to school in England) but have never suffered any abuse like this, maybe it was your attitude that they didn't like.

On the other side of the coin is that I have received abuse in England whilst wearing my Scotland shirt, but I just ignored it as being dimwits who will pick up on anything different about people to get a rise out of them and have an excuse to beat them up. There are people like that in every country.

As I said being anti English and racist can be 2 completely different things, depending on your acceptance of the definition of the word race. From the English Oxford Dictionary it can mean either a "group of persons connected by common descent", or in it's primary definition, a race is "one of the major divisions of humankind, having distinct physical characteristics"

I am sorry you had bad experiences in the places you mentioned but to be fair they are all ****e anyway...

Back to the tennis, hope Murray wins for Britain and Scotland, as he himself says, as would I.

I agree that Wiki can be unreliable but this particular article is supported by a host of references. Now, individually these too might be suspect, but together I think they provide a convincing case.

Of course, it might all be spin on the part of Murray, but as you rightly say, he is a sportsman and most sportsmen of his profile would have some sort of publicity engine. Ultimately, however, he will be judged by his results, imo.

Incidentally, if you don't believe the wiki article, here are the relevant references. Some are broadsheets, others tabloids....

Racist.

He peaked to soon in beating Nadal.

Well done to him thou.

No disgrace in losing to a brilliant performance from Federer. Always thought it would be difficult for Murray to maintain the level of performance he played in beating Nadal. But well done anyway, he's ranked 4 in the world aged 21 and i'm sure he will win a major soon if he continues improving.

[Weston Super Saint]

That bloke who beat him looked quite useful, I reckon he could go a long way in his tennis career.
You heard it here first.


Another Amir Khan :shock:


Yes, apart from the fact he is ranked in the top 6 in the world, he is very similar to the over hyped boxer.......

To be fair, I think Federer is ranked in the top 2 in the world ;)

Just like the other Scottish fellow Colin Mrs Doubtfire Montgomery.

He was ranked number 1 in Europe for how many years???

Oh, and how many major titles did he get :shock:

Priced at 6/4 to win a major next year... now, who in their right mind would take that bet?? I'm not saying that he wont win a major next year but the price is ridiculous.

Think you will find that Murray is ranked 4 in Europe.

As for Monty I'm sure most of the nation loved him for his performances in the Ryder Cup.

So not even number 1 then :shock:

No chance of winning a major...

Er - No. 4 in the world, in fact.

He-hey! I hadn't thought of that!

I'll disregard the Rusedski remark as there is no comparison but I'm trying to work out how you can call Roger Federer inconsistant. 15 majors (Wimbledon 2003/04/05/06/07, US Open 2004/05/06/07, French open 2006/07/08 and Australian open 2004/06/07), a total of 55 tour wins plus 237 consecutive weeks at number one in the rankings and all this at the grand old age of 27, if that's inconsistant I'd hate to see his consistant record.

That was his 13th last night. I believe Nadal won those 3 French opens and he was runner up. In any case, I think he is the greatest player ever to play tennis. I know Sampras had 14 majors, but I think Federer is better than Sampras was at his peak.

Monty was not no1 in Europe aged 21. Anyway don't see what has to do with a different sport?
There are alot of sad bitter individuals on here who seem to hate any British sportsman having some success :-(

You are correct, my bad. Federer was in fact runners up in those French opens, glad to see someone paying attention and pointing out my deliberate mistakes ;) Also Federer is still only 27 so still has a few years to overtake Sampras which I think he will do next year.

I'm sure he would of loved a major but five times runners up in a major, forty tour wins and the £20million+ he has earned from the game will soften the blow.
