> Bollocks! He is a miserable uncouth yob who lost to a true sportsman. 
 
What on earth is your rationale for that ? !! 
 
Murray is a charming and witty interviewee, equally gracious in defeat as in 
victory.
 
> The stupendous Djoko- Del potro SF should have been the Final.
 
The final was exactly what the seeding dictated it should have been - 1 v 2 in 
the world.
DP did play great and made it a quality semi.
 
> Must grudgingly admit that The Git did play well today, though.

Big of you.
 
 
> I wouldnt see this as a british victory if I was scottish, why would I? but
then again I wouldnt see it as a scottish victory when the english man won
tour de france.
 
If you'd written:
"I wouldnt see this as a british victory if I was scottish, why would I? but
then again I wouldnt see it as a british victory when the english man won
tour de france.'
then it would have made sense - even though I would 100% disagree with you.
 
You're not comparing like with like.
 
It's a Brit win when Wiggins wins the Tour, a Brit win when Murray wins 
Wimbledon and a Brit win when they both (while wearing Brit kit) win gold in 
London 2012.

> Let's hope all the Scots see this as a British victory - bet they will not.

Only the bitter ones will not - the others will see it a win for both Scotland 
& Britain.


> Exactly. I think the real miserable bastards are the ones who want him to 
> lose. 

Couldn't agree more.
 
> I couldn't believe it when Sue effing Barker referred to 'henman hill' when 
> she interviewed him after. 
 
Why ? It's been know as that ever sinbce the last century - the name doesn't 
change just cos Murray won the tournament.
 
> Now he WAS a loser.
 
Lost 4 Wimbledon semis - 3 to the world number 1s (Hewitt, Sampras) and one to 
an inspired Goran who was saved by the weather.
2 other Slam semis - ranked 4 in the world.
Gave us a decade of hope and excitement after previously having to pray that 
Bates would maybe get to round 3 one year.
 
Best Brit player for 60+ years - wish I was that sort of loser ...
 
Cheers,
 
Al
