OK I'll be the first.

Well done Andy Murray.
At last a Wimbledon Final. He certainly looked emotional and just like the cat that got the cream.

Well deserved too with some really great matches and playing some of his best tennis.

Just a hint of doubt crept into my head for a moment.
We had a power cut this afternoon just at the crucial point when I was thinking oh no a Murray moment.
When the power came back of course it was all over so I missed probably the best of the match.

But Andy made it though. That's enough for me.
I hope he can compose himself. He's very capable of beating Federer and has the advantage in terms of stats

Whoops there I go convincing myself he can do it.

Hopefully it will be a good match to watch one way or another.

A fine british player (only if he wins obviously)

Yes indeed. :xxgrinning--00xx3:
Andy Murray is the British No.1 and ranked No. 4 in the world.

Let's just think about that. No. 4 in the world.
I can't imagime what it must be like to have that much talent, that much determination and that much self-confidence and motivation to achieve that level.
It has nothing to do with money IMO

C'mon Andy

Oh, and I forgot say just look at the immense talent around at this time too.
I think he has progressed and matured so well recently.

I for one will be watching on Sunday hoping to see a fantastic game of Tennis won by a gentleman and a great champion aswell as a role model to all young sportsmen. Yes I will be cheering for Federer because I cannot stand Murray. I dont forget his anyone but England comments and the thought of him lifting the trophy will spoil my weekend. However the Gambler in me says that 13/8 on Murray is good odds so I will be having a small wager on him and hope he loses. I also think 5/1 on Williams opponent in the Ladies final is to good to miss.

Well, we have an English Champion in the Men's Doubles, anyway. First time in 74 years.

What with this and the yellow jersey for an undoubted Englishman in the Tour de France, today, things are shaping up nicely for the Olympics!

But if he loses the final - he's back to being Scottish again. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Can't stand Murray:censored: I too remember his anti English comments before he was no doubt told to tone it down due to lucrative sponsorship offers.
Bet he is for Scottish independence too :doh
He does not represent my country England so why on earth would i cheer for him:)

I really loathe the divison between the home nations, especially between the English and the Scots. The abstention by the Scots on the olympic football team really annoys me.

First set to Murray

Sounds like Murray got a well deserved spanking. All the OTT pre game hype sounded similar to that spouted when it was going to be a mere formality for England to walk over Italy in Euro 2012

The amount of licence payers money the BBC lavishes on blanket coverage of this minority interest sport has angered me for years

Victoria Beckham was sitting there looking like she'd been smacked round the face with a wet fish. :NoNo:

Meanwhile Mr.Niceguy David was waving and smiling politely to all.

That's about all I saw of real interest.

I also love the way 90% of the time, they never call the hill Murray's Mount. They still call it Henman Hill. Tim was a god! haha:icon_lol:
