to be cheering for Andy Murray to loose..

[HappyJoyful]

a set down and I'm beaming...

VW golf? Is that no a bit fancy? Mare like a Saxo or Punto :)

@ "haw bawbag, gies a baw and a racket?"

Surely it would have been "geez a ba' an' a bat"?

Oh it was some sort of joke.

Love that sketch too, offal and deep fried heroin.

Hee hee, we must have classy boy racers round here, they all drive golfs.

(and MrReiver drives a punto.)

Forgetting he's from Dunblane right enough!

Frontpaw us Stirlingshire fowk like a good round w so I like to think it would be a bawwww an' a bat :)

Heck just realised Dunblane is technically Perthshire so you might be right FrontPaw :)

I am trilingual - glaswegian, stirlingish (dunblane dialect) and posh english.

Redlac Dunblane is Perthshire for postal purposes but Stirlingshire for council tax so it could go either way!

Yes, and in Perthshire, we would definitely say Bawwwwww

Reading the OP's post from 12.06 Thursday.

How exactly is Andy Murray unsporting.

Seriously, if you are going to make stupid accusations, you really need to back it up with evidence.

ClaireBunting, they are hardly stupid accusations, it's completely well known and as someone else stated this is often commented on by a great number of tennis commentators and fellow sportsmen and women that he can behave like an unsporting child at times - he's well known for throwing his racket around, and has been fined for swearing oh and then moan that he gets 'picked on' because he swears in English.. I'm sorry but if that isn't a tad pathetic and unsporting what is ?

Queenofsiburbia.. indeed it's all been taken far too seriously and I couldn't agree more with all your comments!

Being unsporting is putting down your opponent, which Murray never does. He is always highly respectful of his opponents and very gracious about them.

Being frustrated with his own play is not unsporting. It usually helps the opponent.

I would say the definition of unsporting is wider than that and no, he's not always gracious and respectful. He's said things previously that he'll try and make his opponent lose their temper and what can he do legally on court to annoy someone. Nice!

He may well in your eyes be highly respectful but personally I'm with Federer's who has called him unsporting for pulling out of a tournament that he requested a wild card for.

So he should play in a minor tournament with an injury?

Do you think this should apply to all players or do you reserve it for just Murray?

I am watching Murray and Tsonga, I really hope they both win. way to scared of angry MN'ers to say who I actually want to win

HappyJoyful, again I'd like to say

In. Your. Face

Am well chuffed, excellent match and both players were fantastic.

Boris

couldn't help myself...

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!?!!!!!!!

Boris

Come on Happy! Join us in cheering for Murray on Sunday and we can all be happy and joyful together!!!

That was a great match, I love Tsonga's wild play. It should be a great final and I don't mind who wins.

I think it could go either way.

Ya dancer!

Better than that wet blanket Tim nice but dim ever done!

Get it up ye!

Come on Andy, ya long streak of (grumpy) wet piss ya. Get in there! Those years of rocking up, saying 'haw bawbag giesa ball an a bat' have paid off

But paradisechick, don't you realise that Timbo may not have been as good a player, or had as much success. He smiled at people and was a wee bit pleasant and had nice hair!! Apparently that's the most important thing when you're a professional sportsman. Oh and Timmy's parents were awfully refined, doncha know, none of this pushy parent malarkey.

< Still at Boris >

Wonder if the OP is still "beaming".
