Englands Turn to Cheer

For all those who thought it was sick that the Scots wanted anyone except the English to win the world cup can now get revenge and cheer the fact that Murray is out of Wimbledon.

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

Funny I seem to remember Andy Murray playing in the BRITISH Davis Cup team. As such I'd think most BRITISH people would want him to do well.

If there were a BRITISH football team (say the 2012 Olympics) I'd support them. What I wouldn't support is an English, Welsh or Northern Irish team any more than any other country.

Are you clear enough the difference between BRITAIN and ENGLAND or would you like me to spell it out further for you? :rolleyes:

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

He has Scottish emblems daubed all over his sweat bands not British.

I have always supported the home teams of whatever nation but was disgusted at the street interviews on the national news channels who couldn't find a Scottish person supporting England. When asked the reason they could only say "because".

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

as far as i can see he's not out yet!

When he plays for the Scottish Davis Cup team you have a point. Until then he is a British player who is proud of being Scottish.

Do you think the Scots wanted Henman to lose his matches?

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

I think reading the bbc live report of the match is better than watching it!

Quote:

The two players walk out into the sunshine to cheers and applause. Murray, iPod headphones in, is carrying a bag of iced water and the usual enormous racquet bag. The other enormous thing is his hair - the curly mop is reminiscent of Bob Dylan's circa the Blonde On Blonde album.

Quote:

Baghdatis goes to 30-0 in rapid time, allows Murray back in briefly and then closes the game out with a good deep forehand. He is sporting a large white headband over his hair, which is pulled into a tight high ponytail. It's a very Sporty Spice 1997 look. Who does he think he is - some kind of superstar? (Note to Cypriot readers - that was not a serious comment).

Quote:

Murray is crumbing before our eyes. It's two breaks and four games on the bounce for Baghdatis, and Murray errors are doing half the job for him. Baghdatis might be just 21 years old, but he's making as much of his opportunity as an old veteran - forcing Murray back and then hitting him with the drop shot sucker punch. Forget 3am phone calls from Sean Connery - it's right now that Murray needs James Bond, or at the very least Q with some sort of cunning tennis-related gadget.

Quote:

His mother Judy watches on, wearing Terminator-like mirrored shades. How useful it would be if she could travel back in time like Arnie to the start of this match to warn her son of the tribulations ahead...

Quote:

After serving well for the game, he spends the entire changeover lecturing the official about chalk dust in a flat - yet angry - monotone. On reflection, Judy Murray's shades are more Matrix than Terminator. You could see Carrie-Ann Moss in them for sure.

Never mind Murray, there's alaways next year...and the year after.....and the year after.....and the year after. :D

Off you pop, back to jockland now. :D

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

I really dont give a toss about tennis either

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

OK, let's see if we can be as imaginative as the Engerlish for finding a scapegoat for an early exit from a competition.

Nah, on second thoughts Andy was very poor and the other guy goes deservedly through as a very good winner and the very best of luck to him.

Oh yeah, and lets hope Shrek (Wayne Looney) gets his "baws" damaged by Carvalho the next time they play. :angel:

Me neither, I hear it's a bit of a racket!

OK, i'll get me coat :disturbd:

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer

Glad he's out, he's way to up his own **** and way to cocky, he needs to be brought down a peg or Three.

And the Engerland goalkeeper would never have been guilty of doing this during a match to waste a time and slow down the pace.

No never, honestly, the Engerland players are such good sports they don't dive like a big Gerrard in a friendly to win a penalty when the defender never even touched him or the domestic teams/national team never surround the ref "advising" on what course of action should be taken.

Wake up and smell the coco!

:p:

Re: Englands Turn to Cheer
