Did I mention that I have a ticket for Wimbledon this year? :)

Me too, my touch is about as subtle as a sock-full of snooker balls.

Here we go, I was wondering when this myth would rear its ugly head.
It was a joke make during an interview during banter between Murray, Tim Henman and a journalist. If you don't believe me, here's Tim Henman - an Englishman who was actually there - explaining it for you: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqQsHBwkDgQ" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqQsHBwkDgQ</a>
I've no problem with people disliking Murray for being a surly, petulant twat (which he can be at times), but please - don't make yourself look stupid by falling for the 'Ohmigod, Murray is anti-English' bullshit.
I did believe the person who told me this probably because i didn't like him anyway. So i stand corrected and take it back but im still not his biggest fan

Did you read that somewhere and just decide to believe it?
It is, apparently, the biggest load of bollocks going. There is proof ...out there somewhere... that he was merely responding, in kind, to jokey taunts regarding the Scotland team.
Something like that anyway.
Yep. People too readily believe everything they read in the press. This is the story...
Murray explained that his comments were said in jest during a light-hearted interview with sports columnist Des Kelly, who asked him if he would be supporting Scotland in the World Cup, in the knowledge that Scotland had failed to qualify for the tournament. Kelly stated another tabloid had later "lifted a couple of them [comments] into a 'story' that took on a life of its own and from there the truth was lost" and that he despaired over the "nonsensical criticism"

I really just don't like the bloke he comes across as a moody little bastard. I did find myself rooting for him in that comeback at Wimbledon last year though much to my disgust.

That drop shot was amazing wasn't it, the spin on that ball when it landed :-0
12 ATP tour wins now, more then Henman already and he's only 22. He is an awesome talent.
