Andy Murray and England...

[max_tranmere]

Remember a few years ago he apparently said he wanted anyone to win at football except England? Since then press articles have mentioned this and there are said to be some in England who don't support him because of his supposed anti-English views. He did his best to point out that he is not anti-English in this article 3 years ago:



When he first made the comment he received a lot of hate mail:



What do people think, are there some who will not support him south of the border because of what he has said? One thing I am sure about is that if he makes it to the semi-'s, the Daily Mail will dig the story up again. (I am not really bothered as I am not that into tennis).

I think he changed his mind and shut up about this when the pound signs were flashed in front of his eyes by his sponsors, he then became British for profit and not a Scottish English hater he once was. Money!

to be fair to Murray, the "I'll support whoever's playing England - ha, ha" quote came in response to an english journo asking him "if he would be supporting Scotland in the World Cup - ha, ha " (or was it Euros, I cant recall) when Scotland hadn't qualified, so was a jokey retort to a jokey anti-Scottish remark by a journo, so its a bit unfair its been held against him all these years...

Fine tennis player, personality still developing. If he lost that harridan of a mother he might lighten up a tad....

Looking like he won't be part of Sundays arrangements....very good player but miles away from being one of the greats and not a Slam winner in a month of Sundays..

You can be both, everyone is from one of the areas of Britain - and Britain too.
