I was Pab, over all the years, I loved 3 players in particular;

1) Ken Rosewall, the best return of serve I've ever seen (and Murrays getting pretty good too).

2) The Iceborg

3) SuperMac - The fuming genius, just waiting for the incredible tantrums to erupt was magic. Followed normally by an incredible stroke to beat a kerfuffled opponent. Didn't work however with my number 4 Jimmy Connors, or, of course number 2 above!

Ouch!!

Wasn't is recently discovered that Doncaster is actually technically owned by Scotland?

Oh and there are some Scottish papers also owned by that certain Australian!

As Andy Murray is known not to like the English (I am English) I don't really feel inclined to support him. That doesn't mean I don't support Scottish and hence British sportsmen - I fully support Scots like Paul di Resta and Dario Franchitti (related to each other, with Italian heritage, just co-incidence though, I would support 100% Scottish Scots too!!).
