Murray in the semi final - Wimbledon, Friday

[Adamm]

Laughing at all the disheartened English fans against Murray. By reaching the semis he's already done miles better than England did in the world cup... although you would argue that he has the advantage of Eagle Eye on his side haha. Unlucky England x
Hope he wins, it'll be a good match at least. Both seem to be on good form.

You don't even know what it's called so it's obvious you're just posting to have a dig. IT'S HAWK EYE

Obvious blunder aside, the point remains valid. Why be bitter towards him anyway? I wouldn't say he was arrogant.

I'm sorry but running doesn't necessarily mean anything. Footballers regularly don't run for periods of time, and have a break 45 minutes in, and play for 90 minutes. Tennis players have to constantly batter the balls, run, jump, dive etc for quite a while.. Much longer than football, considering each set can be an hour long, and some play to five sets. Without many breaks.

You can tell just by looking at the face anyway..

Running doesn't necessarily mean anything? You go run for 90+ minutes then and we'll see shall we? Footballers are constantly moving around the pitch, they never stop moving.
Yes they get a break for 15minutes at half time but Tennis get a break every few matches right?

Among the stats is how far tennis players run. During the five set match where Novak Djokovich beat Radek Stepanek at the U.S. Open in 2007, Stepanek ran approximately 5 miles while Djokovich put in a less strenuous 3.5 miles.

You say each set can last up to an hour, yet above mentioned, that would be 5hours. yet they only run 3.5 - 5miles. Footballers run on average say.. 9-10km in a match which is 6miles, they do this in 90minutes. Whereas Tennis players run less in 3-5hours?

And because The Scottish people weren't supporting England I won't be supporting Andy Murray.

Footballers, depending on position, do not always rub. Walking you can't count as straining exercise. For that I'm on about defenders and strikers. Midfielders do run more yes, but, then you have the fouls, the corners, the throw ins.

5 miles is about 8km, so not that much difference. And where did you get these figures from anyway? And as I said, there's a difference in play. Tennis you are constantly swinging your arm, forcing your body weight behind you.

They get a toilet break, thats it. They have like a 30 second sit down when they change ends to get a drink and ave a bite of food, normally bananas.

Still, footballers run 8-10km in 90minutes. http://www.fifa.com/live/competition...500/index.html Go on that for examples of how far players run in 90miunutes even the goal keepers run 4km. Because they run so far in so little time would mean more stress on the body = more tiring?

I dunno. I think it's probably one of those things to agree to disagree. It is like comparing two completely different things i guess

It's just great that lots of people who think all Britain should support England won't support Murray. Even the Mirror's claiming he's English. lol

[Adamm]

Murray said it himself, he's Scottish not British so why should we carry on this farce?

Come on Bogdanovic.
