To think that Andy Murray looks like a dinosaur

When he's screaming/roaring.

Australian open. Hilarious reactions to missed shots, especially love the slow motion playbacks - including Djocovick (sp??) bemusement. Blatant "fuckkkkkkk"s screamed to the camera (BBC are going to need to be careful to not focus on him too much given it's daytime tv)

I'd be bored having to watch all that tennis, but otherwise it sounds pretty idyllic.

Confused Such funny defensive responses!

To reiterate: he looks like a roaring dinosaur WHEN HE SCREAMS. For all those who are sensitive about his actual looks! In my defence, I'd be cracking up at my dad if he was reacting in a similar way and compare him to some type of roaring animal too. Does not mean I hate him fgs! Would you feel better if I said lion instead? Wink

Hahaha Pictish - yes definitely a sad rwoar he lost Grin

Aw he's sweet. I think it's got a lot to do with the unreconstructed hair. He has totally got better looking as he's got older. Bless his little sponsored socks.

Andy Murray is one if the best sportsmen this country has produced in generations.

He works hard, is close to his family and isn't filling the tabloids with reprehensible behaviour like your average footballer

His home town, where people who actually know him and his family love him and are incredibly proud of him.

As for his Mum, she's a nice lady. She's quite involved in the local community. She even sponsored the fireworks for a local Dunblane event and the Christmas tree lights.

So there.

Does Nancy not just mean like a prett

FannyFifer · 01/02/2015 17:17

Posted to soon, does Nancy boy not just mean like a pretty boy, all the waxing, tans & high maintenance hairdos etc of the majority of footnkers?

TheyLearnedFromBrian · 01/02/2015 17:22

Those would also be my DH's crimes. Poor Andy! We're on your side hen.

TheyLearnedFromBrian · 01/02/2015 17:23

As in, 'Scottish and difficult to interview' as opposed to 'waxing, tans & high maintenance hairdos'.

Nancy boys? Nice
For the record he has won 2 grand slams not 3, this country didn't really produce him as a player he did most of his training abroad. His temper is his downfall & he would be a better player if he could get it under control

He's got to have a thing though. Djokovic does awesome after-match speeches, Fed's just uber cool Swiss, Nadal is smoking at all times.

So that leaves Andy going "hmm what's my thing going to be? Think, think Andy. lightbulb! I'll be a dinosaur! Coool!"

And we're all like "oh Andy Sad"

Only two grand slams? I'm so sorry to have got it wrong. That's two more than me. Have you won more nancy75?

nancy75 · 01/02/2015 18:53

Limited, me having won a grand slam or not has no bearing on how many Murray has won. He has won 2

nancy75 · 01/02/2015 18:56

At no point in my post did I say that this wasn't a great achievement so I'm not too sure why you felt the need to have a dig?

TheyLearnedFromBrian · 01/02/2015 18:56

Hmmmm, nancy75 refuses to confirm her grand slam total - very suspicious!

Is that you Andy? Boris - NOT AGAIN?!
