To be fair to him he has had it tough. Federer only had to beat Philippoussis for his 1st slam, Nadal only had to beat Puerta (who?) and Djokovic only had to beat Tsonga. Murray has had to play either Federer or Djokovic in all five of his slam finals.

agree he is playing at a time when the competition is realy tough. At a different time he would maybe have won 2 or 3 of his other finals against lesser opponents.
I was a bit suprised federer won wimbledon i thought his time was over and that nadal and djokovic were goign to win everyting.
Quote: get the beer in wrote in post #19Nice to see fellow Brits Alex Ferguson and Sean Connery out there supporting him.
You can have the two of them T. Two Grade 1 hypocrites. Connery claims to be a Scotsman and always wheeled out by SNP claiming how Scotland is the best country in the world but lives in America and Bahamas.
Connery "And stop saying he's British, he's Scottish. I have to go now because the champion is waiting."
is a bellend, which Scottish team will he claim to 'support' next.?
Ferguson however is a good bloke who is campaigning to keep the Union together.
can't honestly say I ackowledge Scotland's existence , if ever I've worked there the people are very unfriendly , and the weather is shit .. I worked out of Aberdeen two years and hated every minute .. Scotland can hate all it likes , doesn't matter a fuck to me ..
Stopped up to watch him make history, even at 2 nil down djokovic was only a tad behind murray in terms of winning odds. Wish he'd fucking smile more now.
Quote: Rhys wrote in post #46I still can't get why people hate him. People say he's miserable but he just comes across as very driven and determined to win to me.
The ABE quote is a piss poor reason too. If he was English and said it about Germany or Argentina, he'd be loved.
I don't really give a fuck what Murray hates but if you hate England then why date an English girl, live in England and want the English support at Wimbledon? One of his Grandparents was half-English as well I think. And if it was an English bloke who said he hated Argentina but lived in Buenos Aires and dated an Argentinian bird he'd look stupid.
