Murray wins a great match

[andy222]

Well I thought the Scotsman had blown it when he was 2 sets down. Then the British player came back and won.:laugher:

[Ako Si Jamie]

2 sets up in the final now. Looking good. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[Ako Si Jamie]

He's won in 3 sets.

Proud to be an Englishman

:Kilt::icon_lol:

First Brit to win the Wimbledon Finals in 77 years ... and a "Jock" :Kilt: to boot! :Hellooo:

So we have a new William Wallace on our hands then??

[Arthur Little]

Well ... :anerikke: ... I suppose if you consider the close associations of BOTH men with the Royal Burgh of Stirling as being the "common denominator", then yes :icon_rolleyes: ... in the sense that the Murray family home lies (I believe) within its local authority boundaries whereas, Wallace's connection with the town itself was, of course, primarily an historic one.

Well done Andy certainly makes me proud to be a Brit also as Scotland is one of my favourite places to visit as my great grandfather was from Paisley a true Scot, I am proud of my links:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[Ako Si Jamie]

I've got Scottish blood in me too.
My great-grandfather was from Aberdeen.

Never mind eh? Worse things happen at sea. :icon_lol::wink:

:Erm: He doesn't look anything like Mel Gibson :cwm25: .... or as Rooney would say, Gibinson :biggrin:

[andy222]

Yep great match. Well done that man.:xxgrinning--00xx3:

I'm just supporting Andy, honest! Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond raises giant Saltire behind David Cameron's head in Royal Box on Centre Court


Scottish First Minister smuggled flag into Centre Court in wife's handbag
Accused of photo-bombing David Cameron with political stunt
Mr Salmond insists no-one sticks to rule banning large flags
Asks for leniency after 117 wait for a Scot to win Wimbledon
Hails Murray as the 'King of Scotland' who can have whatever he likes

Memo to Security - Strip search this pig and his wife when attending future events and functions

... whereas, Wallace's connection with the town itself was, of course, primarily an historic one ...

... whilst Alex Salmond's *tenuos (*partial pun) connection with the 'future of Scotland' COULD be considered to be more of an hysterical :laughitupsmilie: one!

As usual, a leading politician sets a good example that we can all follow :action-smiley-081:
