    He's made it clear on more than one occasion that he's no lover of the English.

    3-1 Federer seems to be the favourite score, I'd go along with that.

    Murray will scrap like hell of course but class will tell in the end.

    Always a popular prediction whenever he plays Nadal, Djokovic or Federer.

    Murray is a typical Scot - I doubt OT or ScottishToon would disagree or find that offensive.

    Living in Belfast, I get it a lot of...I went to wor lass's house for the England v Italy game - her Mam made 3 types of pasta for tea - one with pesto, a carbonara and a tomato based one, laid out in order of the Italian flag! (fair play, I thought it was funny like)

    Thing is about Murray and us English fans - he's British until he loses!

    I hope Murray goes 2 sets up and is ahead in the tie-break in the third - raising all hopes and getting all the Scots shouting "He's Scottish, not British!"

    Then he totally capitulates under the pressure and Federer goes on to win 3-2.

    And then we say back: "Yeah, he IS Scottish, you can have him!"

    A Brit called Marray won the men's doubles yesterday which got me thinking.... If you put a tenner on a month ago that Murray would win Wimbledon... Would they have paid out if you wrote scruffy enough?

    hmmm, almost everybody going for Feberer! In that case I might put a sneaky bet on Murray. At least that way I'll be happy whether he wins or loses.
