To be fair Bernie wasn't so bad when he had that Big Blonde Bimbo alongside him, but when she ran off with a big pile of his dough, his smile seemed to fade away somewhat. |

It always amazes me how people can dislike a guy so much when they really know nothing about him. Almost everyone that I have seen quoted or seen on TV that knows him says he is a great guy with a good sense of humour. However, because we always only see him when he is interviewed (something he admits freely to hating), we decide we dont like him.
Same with Hamilton Same with Steve Davies to an extent An excellent result and I hope very much now that he goes on to win many more grand slams including Wimbledon next year. |
Re: Andy Murray
About the Scottish/English thing, does it really matter - it's mostly a joke on both sides, like the English/French thing, isn't it?
The French aren't cheese-eating-surrender-monkeys, the Scots aren't better fighters than the English, and the latter don't all fall on their knees when Prince Charles passes by. Andy Murray did us all proud, and it's his coach's fault that he doesn't smile more, it's a strategy to frighten his opponents. Imagine if he was allowed to serve in a kilt? |

Sebastian Vettel. keeping onside with the guy who owns much of F1 is useful for the driver and his team |
Re: Andy Murray
the biggest problem for any sportsman (or woman) is the armchair pundit.
they know so much about so little. they ridicule people because they aren't No1, even when they are consistantly in the top 5 of The World. from an armchair that counts as a failure. Murray dun good, as has Hamilton in a great weekend for the country at the end of a fantastic Olympics and Para Olympics. It is these people who are putting the Great into Britain :thumbsup::thumbsup: |

Steve boring Davis was world champion for many years and all the crap that was thrown at him didn't appear to affect his game. He was a great player in his day, but he was also a boring fart both on and off the table, .......still is come to that. The punters who directly or indirectly pay the wages of these superstars are as entitled to air their opinions as is anyone else. Just because a guy is number one at something, doesn't make him a God who should never be criticised in any way. |

The French were extremely valiant in both the First and Second World Wars, more so in the first, it's a shame that in the 2nd WW their Generals mis-judged the situation completley. De Gaulle was and should be remembered as a chancer and a coward. God knows how he had the nerve (or the opportunity) to ride into Paris ahead of the Allied liberators. |

I'm all for a bit of banter, the problem with Murrays delivery of the immortal line was that it was said without the hint of a smile and not with any sense of irony. That though as we have learnt is the lads on screen persona. Another Scot last night on the TV during an experiment with acid dipped a coin into a glass of acid and remarked about whether we should be dipping the Queens head into acid and said "well she's not the Queen of Scotland" so it's no wonder that some Brits are getting a bit fed up with the banter. |

I've just read this immediately after breakfast and nearly parted with it immediately - eeugh, what a thought! It's not nearly as difficult a decision as if it was Robert Redford involved, you know - the answer is NO! |

Who on this thread has critisciesd him? There is a huge difference between criticising someone and having an opinion on same which has obviously passed you by.
“Las opiniones son como los culos, todo el mundo tiene unoâ€. Britains best sportsman?? He's won his first major, I'd put many UK cyclist streets ahead of him, Rory McIlroy is the world's number 1, we've had world champions at various sports, I'd put them all ahead of him. |

We send them all back over the border for not having a valid passport. We treat them as II's and intern them The Labour Party will lose over 45% of its members And we won't have to worry about the West Lothian Question any more, they will have no say in the Mother of Parliaments, deciding on the laws of England. |
