Taxi Driver Online

I remember when England got knock out of the world cup by Portugal and Andy Murray thought it would be a good idea to wear a Portuguese football shirt for a few weeks.
Well I thought I would start a fashion trend in London cab drivers and wear a Swiss football shirt after Murray was taken to pieces as Roger Federer powered to a fifth successive US Open title.
I'm sure that had Murray won not a single person in Scotland would be calling him the Greatest British player since Perry. He would be referred to as Scottish and rightly so.
I think its about time to dismantle this idea of a false union between the four countries.
Team GB, not who I bat for.
I'm Welsh and proud of it.

So if your Welsh, why would Andy Murray wearing a Portugese top bother you?

Well gusmac although I was born in Newport we left when I was I child. As I live and work in London and as the English have accepted me I feel I have dual nationality. So not only do I support Wales I also support England. I would never cheer for a foreign team to beat Scotland and would always cheer for Ireland in a foreign match.

Now Murray kicked up a fuss about the fans at Wimbledon because he thought, quite wrongly, that they would not accept him as British when he lost. He seems to have a large chip on his shoulder.
So her made a pre-emptive strike at the fans by wearing the shirt of the team that knocked us out of the world cup.
Which I personally think was a wrong move.
Now he deserves all the flack that comes his way.
I may find it in my heart to forgive him one day, but not at this present time.

The guy was mis-quoted.

Andy Murray has been cleared today of being anti-English, a misconception that has tainted his career based on a controversial comment made in 2006 about the England football team.

Des Kelly, from the Daily Mail, has admitted to provoking the Scot into saying the "anyone but England" comment but says Murray was just being sarcastic in response to his teasing over Scotland failing to qualify for the World Cup that year.


So, for the hard of thinking, let me state here that: I did the interview with Andy Murray and Tim Henman a couple of years back where Murray talked about 'supporting whoever England were playing against'.

It was a clearly a sarcastic remark. He was responding to teasing from your columnist about Scotland's absence from the 2006 World Cup and derisive laughter from the mischievous Henman.

It was reported in that context in this newspaper at the time and the exchange was run as a transcript.

A couple of days later a red-top got excited about the comments, lifted a couple of them into a 'story' that took on a life of its own and from there the truth was lost.

The shameful "red-top" who spread the lies about the Scot is thought to be Tony Parsons, and the story that "took on a life of its own" is probably much like this recent fabrication.
