> 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 ...
