Neither did Andy Murray unless you listen to the gutter press mis-quoting him.

That was my point

I know I was just leaving no doubt about my view as well.

I did, because he is.

Oldham Rhino will be pleased.

So were you shouting for other nations to beat him as well then?

I didn't cheer for anyone in the Olympics except Jessica Ennis cos she's fit.

I'm English. I was born in England and I live in England. The only time I have EVER cheered for Great Britain is in rugby. I went to the Team GB football match at Old Trafford, but didn't care who won. I went to say I had seen an Olympic event.

Britain is on its arris. Half the Countries would rather not be in it and the majority detest one of their fellow British nations. Do you think the whole of Scotland got behind Tim Henman? Did they throw parties all over Wales to watch him in the few finals he made? Do you think they cheer for England or English competitors?

Most Scots will tell you they're Scottish and most Welsh will tell you they're Welsh. The fact that not one of them sung GSTQ in the football (including the Captain) proves said point.

No it proves all footballers are idiots nothing else.
I saw numerous none English carrying the GB flag with great pride, perhaps you would have too if you had bothered to look.
But hey if you want to keep your blinkered view go for it.
I on the other hand will see what my eyes show me and that is that none English can and are proud to be part of Britain when taking part as part of the British Olympic/Paralympic teams.

Some are yes. Some aren't. Each to their own. Mine is that I am English and not British.


This isn't an "I hate the Welsh or Scottish" thing either as my Grandad was Scottish.

Have you got a passport? Have a look at your nationality in that.

What has that got to do with the price of fish? It says "NEW ZEALAND" on Rangi Chase's passport and "SOUTH AFRICAN" on half of the England cricket teams. It more than likely says "SPANISH" on somebody's passport who was born in Barcelona but the majority will say they're Catalonian.

Who do you play for?

Good response.

What are those weird flags everyone was waving at his homecoming yesterday? Ah yes. SCOTTISH flags. Here was me thinking we were all British and together.

I'll stick to supporting England thank you.

Andy Murray - When he loses he's Scottish
Andy Murray - When he wins he's British.

And either way ... he's a ..........!
According to some.


Not me may I add.

In fairness we struggle to get our hands on Union Jack flags up here. They are all snapped up by Rangers fans with agendas.

Sadly thanks to those morons the waving of the flag on the UK has a different meaning north of the border.

True I guess.

He can finally be recognized as British after today



I thought he would win but in 5 sets not 3,much of the credit has to go to Lendl who has improved Murray's stamina and mental strength.Might aswell just give Murray the sports personality of the year award now as he will have won that today aswell.

Andy Murray just a jock Tim Henman was a thread i started 3 years ago.

Looks like i was wrong and have to eat humble pie.

Well done Murray

Well done to Murray.

Lets hope his victory isn't hijacked by others for their own agenda's.

Did you see Richard Lewis join in with Murray's lap of honour

Cameron says Murray should be knighted....ok when he retires but at 26



Get the feeling this statement is in response to the Salmond flag waving in the royal box.

His comment that he couldn't think of anyone more deserving was a joke. I can think of several people.

Go on then.
