Precisely right. I've heard it through Murray's mouth via an interview on Talksport, the journo asked him "will you be supporting Scotland in the world cup", to which he replied "no i'll be supporting whoever England play harharhar"... Well we all know it doesn't take much for the Engerlund fans to get offended

England fans (and I am one) should be more worried about how poor their team are at the moment, rather than getting upset about what someone else has supposedly said.
As for Murray, I thought, with the exception of the 3rd and 4th set mini slump, when Djokovic was actually playing awesome tennis, it was as good a performance I've seen from him ever. It was a cracking match all the way through and Murray fully deserved the win.

Aye but you know what a large section of them will be like. I don't have a problem with Scotland, well, apart from the Rangers/Celtic bigotry. I quite enjoy the banter etc, one of my foster dads was Scottish, we used to give each other the pelters, but it was hilarious.

I didn't cheer for anyone in the Olympics except Jessica Ennis cos she's fit.
I'm English. I was born in England and I live in England. The only time I have EVER cheered for Great Britain is in rugby. I went to the Team GB football match at Old Trafford, but didn't care who won. I went to say I had seen an Olympic event.
Britain is on its arris. Half the Countries would rather not be in it and the majority detest one of their fellow British nations. Do you think the whole of Scotland got behind Tim Henman? Did they throw parties all over Wales to watch him in the few finals he made? Do you think they cheer for England or English competitors?
Most Scots will tell you they're Scottish and most Welsh will tell you they're Welsh. The fact that not one of them sung GSTQ in the football (including the Captain) proves said point.

I saw numerous none English carrying the GB flag with great pride, perhaps you would have too if you had bothered to look.
But hey if you want to keep your blinkered view go for it.
I on the other hand will see what my eyes show me and that is that none English can and are proud to be part of Britain when taking part as part of the British Olympic/Paralympic teams.

Some are yes. Some aren't. Each to their own. Mine is that I am English and not British.
This isn't an "I hate the Welsh or Scottish" thing either as my Grandad was Scottish.

| Have you got a passport? Have a look at your nationality in that.

What has that got to do with the price of fish? It says "NEW ZEALAND" on Rangi Chase's passport and "SOUTH AFRICAN" on half of the England cricket teams. It more than likely says "SPANISH" on somebody's passport who was born in Barcelona but the majority will say they're Catalonian.
