"Mr Smith?s piece contains a number of symbols, including Murray Mints, plant seeds ? representing the seeding system at Wimbledon ? a Union flag and a picture of a kilt.


Mr Smith said he was not a particular Andy Murray supporter, but added: ?I do like watching it now and again."

LOL SJ...I can't stand the game let alone play it. Everyone knows that if a professional player plays enough tournaments they can get their ranking up. Henman never made the final of a grand slam (the only tournaments that matter really) let alone win one. He rarely beat players ranked higher than him. I feel the press treated him like a World Champion when he wasn't and was never going to be.

As others have said, Henman was consistently in the top 10 for years, made a few GS semis, won a masters event (yes masters tournaments do "matter"!), had possibly the best volley in the game at the time.


In what other sport would you call a top 10 player an "average jobbing player at best"? I'm not really into football, but I don't think it would be a stretch to draw an analogy with Gareth Bale or Steven Gerrard.


Plus you have to put it in the context of the previous top British players - guys like Andrew Castle and Jeremy Bates who never even broke the top 50...

I'm not actually Scottish, but being British, have supported him since day one.


Well done Andy.


He played brilliantly when it mattered & had the will to win.


We've waited over 70 years for this.

      The Bishop

      By Azalea · Posted

      Is the Bishop still owned by the guy who started Meat Liquor and who annoyed all his ED neighbours during his house renovation?

      Charter School ED - SEN / ADHD experience

      By PeckhamNicola · Posted

      In my experience, if your child's SEN leads to behavioural issues, do not send them to Charter North. It's just endless detentions and threats of exclusion. Too many people try to get in because it is Ofsted outstanding. Not a good sign for SEN, your child would likely be better off in an Ofsted Good school with a better understanding of and attitude towards SEN. The new SENCO might turn things around.

      The fifth?

      By vladi · Posted

      So far 4 US presidents have been assassinated in office. What chances that DJT is the fifth? Ladbrokes have it at 9/4 that he will not make it to the end of his term. 9/4 seems good odds considering his bizarre behaviour.
