Fair enough the Bawss is a subpar poster but F1bob is pure unbiased quality!

Murrays route was actually quite tough. There have been many routes to a Wimbledon title that were far easier.

Sampras' route to the 2000 Wimbledon title:

Jiri Vanek (CZE) 80
Karol Kucera (SVK) 44
Justin Gimelstob (USA) 99
Jonas Bjorkman (SWE) 78
Jan-Michael Gambill (USA) 56
Vladimir Voltchkov (BLR) 237
Patrick Rafter (AUS) 21

Mate i'm sorry but you are not a victim. You thought Murray was god for 20 years and you never raised any questions, you thought the media was trying to discredit Whyte and your lot buried your head in the sand.

Your not the victims! the victims are the clubs who will have reduced tv money.

So my shareholding and bondholding that was worth a substantial amount (more than your Father in law is owed) counts for nothing then?

Don't you dare tell me what I did or didn't think about Mr Moonbeams and the Google eyed gimp. There were plenty of Rangers fans on minty's case for a long time - and I never bought Whyte's lies from day -1, I didn't want him to get the club in the first place; Stevie Wonder could see he was a wrong 'un. Plenty of others felt the same.

You've posted a load of stuff that I've already shown to be arsegravy. The hatred is feckin dripping out of you - on yer bike mate - I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

I blame the schools for your inability to spell or construct a grammatically correct sentence.

Now - moral crusader that you are, remind us again who sh@gged all the boys?

lol, we were talking about how nightmarish his draw was before the tournament. Yeah, Nadal lost, but Murray didn't have any gimmes starting from round one.

Davydenko, former top 5 (might have been 2 or 3, but I can't remember); Karlovic (on grass), Baghdatis (talented striker that can catch fire at any time, Wimbledon semi-finalist, slam finalist); Cilic (former slam semi-finalist, big, flat hitter); David Ferrer (no Nadal, but #5 in the world, big heart, etc, etc); Tsonga (Wimbledon semis last year, RG QF this year in which he almost beat Djokovic); Finals against the top 1 or 2 grass courter in the history of the sport.

Um, yeah, that's peanuts...

Really? Your fact-lite schtick is straight out of the Big Book of Rangers Lies. Oh well - my mistake.

I tell you what - in future you don't post a load of pysh in response to a conversation I'm having with someone else and I'll give you a big cyber kiss and we can forget all about it.

Good points, well made. Also worth highlighting that Jo is a slam finalist and 5 out the 6 guys he faced were slam semi-finalists.
