Bl**dy rich people, making themselves feel better by giving charitable donations, rather than paying their full whack in income tax and helping the working man.

Murray is a sporting great.
Ive no interest at all in Union
But if people want to enjoy it good luck to them


If the miserable introverted attitude of some on here is representative of us league fans no wonder we get bad press. Enjoy life people .

In my teens i played a lot of tennis, but hated Wimbledon for one reason. For 3 weeks of the year you could not get a court, the rest of the year, take your pick..

Last week, halfway through the Wimbledon fortnight, I was walking along Stockton Lane past the fantastic facility that is Grappenhall Sports and Tennis Club. It was 8.00pm and a lovely Summers evening.

The place was closed and there wasn't a sinlge player on the 8 (I believe) magnificent all weather floodlit courts.

A crying shame.

The place was closed, but there was this little lad, hitting a rolled up sock against the wall with a frying pan, and I thought to myself "Well at least in 77 years we might have ourselves another Wimbledon champion".

Lovely story.

. Didn't The Don practice as a child with a stump and a golf ball against a curved brick wall?

RE: The Lions. I gave up my bitterness towards Rugby Union a long time ago now. It was when I realised my resentment was born out of jealousy and some kind of perverse inverted snobbery / ego. Nowadays I'm more relaxed and take a live and let live attitude not just to RU but to all elements of my life. It makes me more content than having all that crap festering on my mind. I watched a bit of the Lions but switched it off as RU isn't really for me. I'm neutral to it now, just as I am to golf, kite flying and crown green bowls. Life really is too short to carry resentments.

Women's football (which - and i'm genuinely not being sexest - is utter crap) gets more coverage on BBC News than Super League does. Wire beat Leeds in a thriller on Friday yet on the sports section on BBC One Breakfast News on Saturday they were talking about The Lions (obviously), Wimbledon (obviously) and then who the injury worries were ahead of the Women's Euros; not a mention of Wire v Leeds.

Never seen an Ape playing tennis before, Maybe you should get a knighthood as well

Now I see David Cameron is calling for Murray to be knighted.

Knighted because he has won Wimbledon once? I presume Lleyton Hewitt will get a knighthood too then.

Where's the knighthood for Warren Gatland? Three Zurich Premiership titles, two Grand Slams with Wales and a Lions tour win.

Where's the knighthood for Martin Johnson for leading England to the World Cup in 2003?

Where's the knighthood for Andrew Strauss for leading England to Ashes series wins home and away?

Giving him a knighthood for winning Wimbledon is one thing, David Cameron stating he 'couldn't think of anyone who deserves one more' is a little far fetch considering some of the unsung work people in our country do, saving and changing lives!

Monkey tennis?
