Originally posted by MctaytoThe kid's is only 22, has enormous potential and should only get better. He got a little blinded in the pressure lights of a major against a a master. I thought his chances would have been even had he not choked in that critical third set. Had Murray won set three the pressure/momentum would most definitely have shifted to Murray. had he then pulled of set four I would have thought Federer would have wilted in the heat agsint a younger player! Scotland in particular and UK in general has everything to be proud of and no shame in this loss!
My money will be on Murray next time as he is improving daily

Originally posted by blade68Lol, you know i was once in Devon, Plymouth cause i was dating a girl there, beautiful English girl, Andrea Parsons, anyhow, there was this bakers and i went in and ordered cakes and rolls and stuff for there were many people in my friends home, i pulled out a Royal bank of Scotland twenty pound note, with the words sterling clearly written on it, and they refused to take it! i was livid, so i made them put all the stuff back and refused to pay for it. Robbie Carrobie 1, Plymouth bakers 0. but in reality i was really looking forward to those cakes 🙁
He wouldn't be able to buy one anyway...not with that Monopoly money you call a currency!

Isn't it odd how the title to this thread is about Murray and goes off on a tangent into a discussion about currency?😕
I hope Andy can take away the positives from this slam and build on it to make a good showing at Roland Garros.
Kudos to Fed for his consistently solid/excellent play when the chips are down.🙂
