Unfortunately, Murray's match was on too late for me, so I missed it.

I'll be staying up for the SFs though...should be 2 great
tennis matches.

If Muzzah can win this thing from here, I'll tip my hat to him. If I were a
betting man, I'd have my money on the winner of the Nadal v Thiem match to
take the title. Personally, my order of preference is
Stan.Thiem.Nadal.the Scottish Curmudgeon.

Well, well, well you Murray haters and moaners. Hope this latest result spoils 
your day and ruins your 
week. My favourite “living" sportsman is through to the semi's. It took Andy a 
set to warm up but when 
he did he was in control, really, throughout the remainder of the match IMHHO, 
what a player we have

2017-06-07 Thread Graham Thirkill
It was always treat to see Guy’s stuff on here and his latest is just as 
good…he said:-
Well I'm glad Murray's doing well and I enjoy watching him. He's got better and 
improved, and I don't just mean winning grand slams and getting to world number 
one but he's matured and controls his emotions more than he used to. True he 
can still lose it and a Federer he's not, someone else I enjoy watching and 
still has style, elegance and class even though he's arguably past his best. 
That though isn't everything. Tim Henman just didn't have it thought I wished 
him well. Going back I used to like Jimmy Conners and Bjorn Borg, two quite 
different personalities. McEnroe I didn't like at first but grew to, the 
opposite to Nastase who I used to like but has now blown it. 

Murray has had a dip after getting to No 1 last year but seems to be finding 
his form again and has definitely got better each round in the French Open. 
He's got a good chance this afternoon and I shall watch. Things are going his 
way, Djokovic has just lost in straight sets (though is through with his 
opponent retiring). Could be a Nadal v Murray final.

As for this list sure it's changed but then things are always changing. It's 
part of life, if things didn't change there'd be no development, if the world 
didn't change it's be the end of everything. Footie has changed, maybe not 
beyond recognition but it's not the same game I grew up with, at least at the 
higher levels and the wall to wall footie 24/7 on tv. It's football Jim but not 
as we know it. We change as well. I know longer see things in the black and 
white I used to. I've even given up on an irrational hated from that team for 
Salford as well as various others. Still it's good to have Thirkers back on the 
list. There's a few other oldies still about, just not quite as vocal as in the 
past, and maybe some others will return as well.

For anyone who hasn't been to Whitby the do so. There's much to be recommended. 
Not just Thirkers and some of the best fish and chips you can find but a 
magnificent Abbey (ruins of),  shades of Bram Stoker and Dracula, whaling, a 
magnificent town and glorious surroundings with the North Yorkshire Moors.

Ey-Up, Guy, the man who Christened me “Thirkers”, it must have been around 18 
years ago, a long time ago eh! Guy. I was an old man then, so you can imagine 
what I’m like now
Great to see your post and may I say you write as good as ever. I know you 
haven been 100% health-wise, but I sincerely hope you are returning to be 
healthy as you were. Another 
sad end, to what seemed to be, maybe, the turning point in Leeds promotion 
hopes, but alas another disappointment……folks as old as us are used to it eh! 
Guy…….Remember,
the year we were up for the treble and got nothing. No wonder Billy titled his 
book as he did.
Take care, I will always remember the time you and I had a grand night in "The 
Hole in The Wall", Scarborough, and my missus came to pick us up after closing 
time. Happy days, Guy..eh!

Maybe if your statement is true to yourself, then that´s why you are a Leeds 
United supporter. Did you 
know Billy Bremner wrote a book, 'You get nowt for being second´...or 
seventh...He wouldn´t have 
agreed with you, perhaps. Winning is very important as everyone knows and 
winning surely is why 
professional people do sport. I am not saying winning is everything but the old 
Olympic aying, "The 
most important thing is not winning but taking part, was when the Games were 
played and competed 
bateurs¦¦Before cash rule sports¦.Me personally would prefer winning and saying 
hard luck to the 
losers.
Anyhow Rob, we all have our opinions, but I go along more with Billy Bremner, 
than your good self.
Have a good afternoon and evening.
