    Murray is just "whining twatanese" I for one will not claim him as British, I'm the only Englishman in my immediate family, all my kids born here in Scotland or abroad, funny how they're so proud to be Scottish with no Scottish roots apasrt from geography of birth.

    Steady on AH <yikes> I am Scottish and very proud of the fact! I have not lived in Scotland since I joined the RAF over 32 years ago, I still consider myself as 'Scottish'

    I love the Scotts, especially my two Scottish kids but I always felt British. I despise Murray and his type who are thankfully a very small minority with prejudice akin to the extremists in Northern Ireland.

    My two kids have been born and bred in England (they live with my ex), my son supports Watford like myself but he follows the English national team and he even has an England top. I would have loved it if he had turned out to support Scotland but hey-ho I am not going to disown him because of this but I will always follow the Scotland team first and foremost.

    It's a good thing that the two teams are rarely in direct competition. <devil>

    Robson's probably going to lose this match, but she's done herself proud today. Close to winning the first set, and despite going 5-1 down she's battled back to 5-3 with break point at the time of writing. If this were a five set match you certainly wouldn't bet against a Robson comeback.

    Don't play enough racquet sports myself. Used to play a bit of tennis, also like table tennis but never really got into badminton after playing that a few times. Never tried squash, would like to but slightly concerned I may keel over!

    I used to like squash, but now I have arthritic knees, it is one more thing I can no longer do :( If I was 20 years older I would understand but I still feel a very young 48 well almost 49 year old:)
