I don't know the first thing about gambling but wonder if there's a wee hint one way or another for you with the lyrics. 'You got to know when to hold'em, know when to fold them' etc.etc. I love that song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted July 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Well, 2 weeks ago I tipped Murray, backed by a small wager and todays the day for Murray to repay my support by winning Wimbledon. The small band of vultures will be watching and hoping he loses to support their small minded views while the majority will be watching and hoping he wins. I think we are in for a top class match no matter who wins as Djokovic is a magnificent tennis player. With a view to hoping Murray wins I see the home support, as mentioned in an earlier post, could be an advantage, the fact Djokovic will still be feeling some effects of that mammoth match on Friday and Murray seen him off in the Olympics, albeit only over 3 sets. C'mon Andy, do it for Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Come on Andy .................. Do it for yirself, Dunblane, Scotland , Britain & Dunderheid's wallet. In my opinion this has been the best Wimbledon for years. Real shock results, brilliant tennis from both the men and women and Andy's progress even if he did frighten the crap out of us. The womens' final was not great tennisI but still watchable. To round off a great fortnight I'd like to see Andy win in great style but I'll even be happy if he wins a crappy match. Well done The Lions and good luck to Lewis Hamilton. Great time for sport. Keeps me going until The Ashes start and then we'll have St.Mirren beginning what will be a classic season. Can't wait. PS Good luck too, to Graham McDowell in the French Open. (How can daft Irishmen pronounce it Mc Dough ell!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small band of vultures will be watching and hoping he loses to support their small minded views while the majority will be watching and hoping he wins. Probably the majority will be outside enjoying the day, getting on with the business of living and not stuck in front of a screen trying to extract displaced pleasure from some utter stranger's achievements in a minority sport, played mainly by people from the monied classes.Fwiw, I'll be on a train, sweating probably.

Fwiw, I'll be on a train, sweating probably. I'd agree the majority, but I'd also mention there will probably be about 15million viewers watching and enjoying. Thank goodness we're not all the same, what a dull world that would be, eh? PS Hope the toilet on the trains out of order and you're in need, ya grumpy auld sausage.
