i agree with you, for once. What a load of drivel. My best friend is a Scot form the tenements of Glasgow. I am so proud of her to have raised herself from the povery in which she was raised to her present situation.

I can imagine. You are rightly proud of your friend overcoming their scotch upbringing and and attaining success in the civilized world. Far to few scotch people make it that far.

Re: Andy Murray - Twat or not?
I met an Italian chap last wek and he said that he thought all Scotish people were tight and shopped at Value Village. Bit harsh tagging the whole of the Scotish race with that brush but he seemed to think that it was appropiate.
I just think that you should stick to your roots rather than change to suit what others want you to be so that you obtain better PR - if he hates English people (& I am not saying he does) fair play if he sticks to his guns and doesn't give two fecks what anyone thinks. I also find some (not all) Scotish people get very defensive about all things Scotish (I had a discussion with a strap who argued Braveheart was an accurate historical account; I pointed out that it was subject to some artist license so he accuss me of being anti-Scotish! Get a life!). Stop taking life so serious; you don't have to like something just because it hails from North of the Border! If it is so great there, why do so many up sticks and go down South or even emigrate to places like Canada. Take a chill pill. :thumbup: |

Why does he have to win their hearts and minds? All he has to do is win and be top of the heap. The British public will think the sun shines out of his arse even if he's the most miserable SOB in the game. Being a nice, sweet guy will not put food on his table. There are many major tournaments around the world other than Wimbledon that he has won/can win/do well in. The British public is no longer the hand that feeds him.

All of the above is quite obvious but then so was your post! |
Re: Andy Murray - Twat or not?
[QUOTE=Yelkcub;8679426] Also to get to the later stages you have to enter it.
And there was me thinking you just show up with your bat and ball, and hope for the best:eek: |
Re: Andy Murray - Twat or not?
I hate Wimbledon. It's supposed to be an "open" but when I turn up they never even let me watch let alone play. This year it was more dissapointing than previous as Anna Kournikova made her return.
Andy Murray will achieve more than Tim Henman in the game but whether he ever win's a grand slam??? Nadal and Federer seem to have him measured in any serious match. Very few tennis players or sports professionals have personalities at all these days. |
