Watching the programme and wondering why on Earth he has so many haters. He's a thoroughly decent chap.
He's a scot who got to the second best in his profession in the world. He's a national hero and should be an inspiration to any school kid and Scot young and old. He's proven that talent only achieves when you work hard along with it.
Exactly my thoughts , very genuine guy aswell . Oh and Hibs class of course :not worthQuote:

Was very difficult to watch him talk about what happened in Dunblane. Can't believe some people still say he has no emotion.
That was a really really good watch
Very, very good programme.
A top lad, a genuinely world class athlete and an extremely talented player.
All Scots should be proud of him.
All Hibby's should be extra proud of him.
:agree: He obviously trusts Sue Barker (who is very good) as he was very open. His Girlfriend who I have never heard speak came across very well and seems groundedQuote:

Daily Mail readers : a law unto themselves.Quote:

The feature on the Dunblane massacre was really difficult to watch and Murray is clearly still harbouring a lot of emotions from that day, which is understandable considering the magnitude of the day's events and also his young age at the time.
There were a lot of people on that programme who said a lot of very nice things about him as a person. Of course you would expect his mum and his brother to give him a glowing tribute but others such as Rafael Nadal clearly have a lot of time for him as well and most people who know Andy Murray in a personal capacity have always said the same things over and over again.
He seems to be a very loyal and humble guy who is dedicated to his profession and determined to be the best that he can possibly be.
I wish him all the best and he seems to have a really solid relationship with Kim Sears as well.
Really good programme. Will be watching tomorrow. Great excuse for a few beers on a monday night as well :agree:
Great Pic!!Quote:

Fantastic tennis player as well as a man of dignity and class. He said anyone but England in reference to who he wanted to win a tournament and some Englsh folk cannae tolerate that.
The ABE remark lacked dignity and class though. Imagine the reaction from some Scots if an English sports star made an Anybody but Scotland comment. He did learn from it though.Quote:

Doubt he worries about it anymore and better to see the haters having their days ruined/made by his results.Quote:

I wish people would stop putting this story about, without its context. Andy was jokingly replying to Tim Henman, who was ribbing him about Scotland's failure to qualify for the World Cup (again).Quote:

I agree that some Scots would be outraged.Quote:

Exactly, a young guy just having a bit of banter like everybody else. Completely blown up out of proportion.Quote:
