I dislike Murray, hate is such a strong word...

[Wigsie]

....I only say this because I used to play with him

Again, I thought I was supposed to be the crafty one?

 

[MrGrumpy]

simply because he hates the english and all the english people will conveniently forget this because we're desperate. I'm desperate for a UK champion at wimbledon but not one who didn't want my support 3 yrs ago so can get stuffed now. Arrogant wnkr.

Talk about small minded and taking something out of complete context. If hes arrogant good !

tbh I reckon the person to watch in tennis is Jamie King..... being entered for the deaf Olympics (whether this is the paraolympics I am unsure).....

....I only say this because I used to play with him

Bit dispiriting when you shout "Let" and the ball still comes back at 130mph down the tramlines every time...

"I would support anybody but England"

And we know that was a reply to some pisstaking from Des Kelly.

You're missing an opportunity there - millions of them are disgusting people.

Bit like the Scotts actually....

Surname or forename?

 

[Renard]

Is that the Scott's from High Wycombe? Yes they are not very pleasant are they?

Or Terry Scott? He always seemed quite a nice fellow.

Oops Noodley got there before me

Surname or forename?

Err, I think we did that one a couple of pages ago. Do try to keep up 007...

One of us humans traits is to size up another (often completely unknown) person and love or hate him...based on what ???
FWIW (which is nothing to anyone else), i dont like Murray....i dont know him, or anything about him, i didnt know anything about the football team comment....i just didnt like him from the first time i saw him.
No idea specifically why...just seems a bit to miserable, uptight, moody...and i've never see him do anything to show me otherwise.
Am i right to feel that way ?...probably not...but thats what we humans do.

 

[Renard]

Anyway, more to the point, why is it that the phrase "Murray's Mound" makes me feel a bit vomity?

Its a fine upstanding place to see the action

You're going to make me do a chutney cough...

My scottish husband is presumed to be english all the time and his french is so crap 1/2 the time he can't correct them. Ha ha bloody ha.

Whatever!

Is this thread about Andy Murray or your husband?

Honest and true gbb, my wife is the same, she dislikes him for the same reasons, myself however think his lack of charisma and desperation to be in the spotlight and please the public will do him well!

Maybe it's one in the same. Would make sense of this thread

Does it matter? About the same chance of winning Wimbledon.

Both, true enough. but the husband provides 1st hand exp to scottish attitude. He (husband) will not support the english in sports so I will not support the scottish. Love him and family but Murray is clearly of the same attitude (until someone pointed out to him that he may be alienating 90% of his supporters).
