Let Us All Now Offer Up Praise To Andy Murray

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

Still British!

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Yes! Good show. By no means an easy test and he came through it well.

Now get some rest Andy. Djokovic has had an extra day on you.

Should be fine - was only 4 sets, one of those was 6-1, and he is now one of the fittest men on tour.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Fucksticks.

"Another five set interview with Jim Courier"

Oh dear and now its Sue Barker and Tiger Tim in the studio

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Delighted - hope the guy wins the final.

 

[Marshy]

What are his odds on Sports Personality of the year I wonder

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Fucksticks.

Be afraid CHAPPERS, be very afraid...

 

[Tricky Dicky]

What are his odds on Sports Personality of the year I wonder

Bit early in the year, but if he wins, not to count chooks before hatching, but would have to be a good shout.

I'm just hoping he is a massive bottler. I do fear for my 1er though, it's clearly a case of when, not if, he'll win a grand slam. I'm hoping as soon as he loses his legs then that's him done.

I think Sunday is Murray's big chance. I fear for your ton mate.....

He's up 3-2 in head-to-head with Djok on hard courts, 2-0 down on clay. It's anyones game.

 

[Life After Bobby]

He's up 3-2 in head-to-head with Djok on hard courts, 2-0 down on clay. It's anyones game.

The truth. They're also never played each other in a Grand Slam (ie over 5 sets).

Less pressure on Djokovic - he's already been there and done it. Too close to call.

 

[Durlston]

Delighted - hope the guy wins the final.

I don't.

Backed Novak Djokovic before the tournament at 7/1 (posted on another thread). Murray is the nightmare opponent to play in the final for a number of reasons - media going mad and being completely biased, bookies shortening Murray's odds more than his real chance so making it more difficult to cover my bet etc.

And where will I be when it's on the BBC on Sunday morning? Travelling on a ruddy rail replacement bus service to watch the Arsenal match against 'uddersfield for a midday kick-off.

what were you expecting?

murray has a good record in their latest meetings and it's going to be a lot warmer sunday

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Sounds like another five-setter. Murray's best chance so far to bag a Grand Slam. Go Andy!
