Even silly wee things like this just adds to the misery of realising how far behind the times we are.
Total joke of a set up.
-
We are now the lowest of the home nations.
The whole Scotland set up is bordering the poorest it's ever been.
It is not a good time to be a Scotland fan.
Someone please explain why the above is wrong. I'm struggling and I am far from a half empty pint way of thinking.

Slasher. Is this possible o do this from Budapest as well ? Have you got contact details as we are coming from there and I think there may be plenty others. I could look into it and do one from Budapest,
I'd be up for that

Yup, Henman and Murray are definitely friends.
Andrew Castle (the commentator on BBC yesterday) also said, as Murray walk to collect the trophy, "Scotland's Andy Murray".
Aye, then Sue Ryder said something along the lines of him raising Britains sporting profile this summer.
I get ripped everyday about our lack of sporting ability and success so a wee bit of friendly tongue in cheek back was enjoyable.
I was watching the final with a couple of my English mates who openly laugh about Murray being Scottish if he loses and British if he wins

Based on how he's played this year (and particularly the last 3 months) there's the potential for Murray to kick on and become an equal rival (possibly even surpass) Djokvovic.
He's now moving better than ever, hitting the ball harder than ever and making so many less errors than he ever has before. The way he is playing right now, he's as good as Djokovic. Below them, there's a bit of a drop off and i'd say Raonic is probably best of the rest; making Murray's performance yesterday all the more impressive.
I can't see anything other than Murray winning another 2 or 3 'Slams, which, given who he's had to compete against for most of his career, would certainly put him amongst the legends of tennis.
A truly wonderful player and, by all accounts, a thoroughly nice man to go with it..
Agree.
I would like to see him win the Aussie as he has lost it 5 times now I believe.
Another Wimbledon would be great. His success considering the current standard of players is superb.
Surely one of the favourites for SPOTY ?

He'll be gutted he never got to the final or won Wimbledon, of course. He'll also be totally thrilled for Andy, someone who he mentored to an extent and is friends with.
Never knew this but he didn't look thrilled to me.
Fair play if that's correct, my comment was tongue in cheek at Murrays success.
I just laugh at the usual British superstar when he wins and Scotland when he loses attitude by some.
No doubt Henman is a nice enough chap. I'll buy him a pint in Malta if he is there.

Every year this sort of pish comes up. Being Scottish we can never just enjoy winning without a GIRFUY to England eh
As you know, I live down in the Shire and I embrace my English friends with love and affection.
There is nothing wrong with a friendly GIRUY when we as a nation enjoy a small bit of success.
I can assure you that they thoroughly enjoy a good friendly GIRUY to us at any given opportunity

The commentator said well done to Scotland's Andy Murray and Sue Ruder then said he has raised the British sporting profile.
Had a laugh a Henmans face, he clearly is gutted he never reached the final.
Well done Andy, you've made Scotland proud of your achievements......again

Happy for Ronaldo.
Really happy the tournament is over.

I think we'll end up with 14 points & I don't think that'll be enough to win the group or a play off spot
Out of interest, how are the 14 points achieved results wise ?
-
Is it just me or is anywan else even more dis-interested for the final match ?

Ah well, France v Portugal final.
mon the French
-
2-0
Griezmann again

I think the home games are more vital than ever.
We have to make Hampden a fortress again.
Win all if possible and some points away, then playoffs are possible.
England at home is the most important game.

Mmmmm...
Think that was a very soft penalty.
Totally agree ma blue noses pal.
I thought the rule was deliberate handball but what do I know
-
Harsh penalty in my opinion.
Germany dominated but France one up.

France not getting any possession and sat back too far.
Germany beginning to dominate with possession, look totally in control.
France are dangerous when they attack but not getting the chance just now.
Bastian having a stormer.

Bale looks wrecked.
canna be more jealous of Wales if I wanted to

Want Wales to win for my mates but can't see it.
Saying that, didn't expect them to beat Russia and especially Belgium so who knows.
