Title: U.S Open Final Post by: STFC4LIFE on Monday, September 10, 2012, 21:51:45 Anyone watching?
Murray 1 set up and 2.0 in the second set, looking good. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: joteddyred on Monday, September 10, 2012, 21:54:05 Anyone watching? Murray 1 set up and 2.0 in the second set, looking good. Was just going to turn over. Might not bother, I'm usually the kiss of death! Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Paolo69 on Monday, September 10, 2012, 21:56:08 Yeah that first set was mental. Needs to wrap this set up whole Novak's head is down.
Not sure I'll make the duration. Gotta work tomorrow morning early as have the afternoon off for the England game. (wonder how long it will take for someone to ask why and say they don't care) Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Notts red on Monday, September 10, 2012, 21:57:33 Going to have a look now, forgot it was on. Could turn out to be the best few weeks of his career.

(wonder how long it will take for someone to ask why and say they don't care) Why would you want to waste holiday to watch an England game :D There, was that was quick enough? Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Paolo69 on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:04:12 Why would you want to waste holiday to watch an England game :D There, was that was quick enough? Haha. Impressive. Now turn that tennis off woman. :-) Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: joteddyred on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:06:49 Haha. Impressive. Now turn that tennis off woman. :-) I haven't turned over yet. I've got caught up watching a documentary about Hillsborough. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Batch on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:20:25 He's letting him off the hook. 1 set up and 2 breaks up and now we are back on serve.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: DMR on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:20:42 Here comes the blow up. Spineless jock.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Paolo69 on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:37:09 Boom!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: joteddyred on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:37:49 Just taken the second set. If he doesn't go onto win now, I have my doubts he'll ever win a grand slam.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: STFC4LIFE on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:38:30 He made hard work of that.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: wiggy on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:39:56 He made hard work of that. The bloke he is playing is a bit good, and may have had something to do with that! Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Coca Fola on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:49:39 He made hard work of that. Serbs are very hard work.Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, September 10, 2012, 22:55:10 Serbs are very hard work. Have you watched A Serbian Film yet? Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Coca Fola on Monday, September 10, 2012, 23:00:16 I've watched some of Kusturica's stuff. He's not really Serbian though, he's just convinced himself that he is...

Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:53:03 service game to love at 3-2 in final set. if anyone even says the word bottle either way they're a fucking moron
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:55:06 What-a-match. Worth being knackered at work tomorrow for.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:56:18 1 service game away from being champion!!!!!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:56:21 What's the opposite of a bottler. That's what Murray has been tonight. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:57:30 absolutely batch, really dug deep to get to where he is now. make it count, get it done, be a hero
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 00:59:18 i don't even really like tennis but all that tennis fans have said over the years - come the fuck on!!!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:01:30 it's ruddy in!!!!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:02:34 ONE POINT!!!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:04:11 SHIT YEAH, BRITAIN'S SUMMER!!!!!!!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:04:16 Championship point. Noooo. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!
Andy Murray, grand slam winner Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:07:05 Night all. Work is going to be coffee induced tomorrow!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:08:10 well played batch, you played your part
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: SirWinston on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 01:09:00 Fabulous stuff. I popped back into work to do a few hours. Put the radio on at the beginning of the match as I booted my PC up and couldn't leave!! Must be time to go now. Back in at 8am.
Well done Andy. Amazing match. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: wiggy on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 06:49:37 SPOTY is going to be interesting now. Any other year and Murray would be a shoe in for it. This year, with so many sporting heroes, who knows.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: nochee on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 08:46:32 So, Andy Murray is a Brutish champion today rather than a Scottish cunt.
I'm sure he'll be very proud Well done Andy Murray Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Flashheart on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 08:55:49 I'm part Scot's so I get the best of both worlds.
Murray iz da man. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Posh Red on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 09:27:14 Fair play to him, I thought he had blown his chance after being two sets up so to come back & win in five was excellent.
Hopefully after getting the Grand Slam monkey off his back he can win a few more, but even if he doesn't he has won one. He may be Scottish, but that's much better than being a scummer like Henman ;) Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Notts red on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 10:23:28 Well done Andy Murray. Hopefully now go on to win more finals. I bet he will be grinning from ear to ear this morning. :no:
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: mrverve on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 10:26:06 What a match, had everything, Murray showed what he is capable of and I won't be surprised if he goes on and wins a few more Grand Slams next year. Brilliant performance from Djokovic aswell!
I've got tickets to go and see a few matches at the ATP Tour Finals at the 02 in November.. seriously cannot wait! Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Chubbs on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 10:52:28 the amount of times i've seen Djok 2 sets down and then wins 3 on the bouce, i did not expect Andy to win the 5. But fair play.
Shows Olympic gold was not a fluke and is up there with Nadal/Fed and/Djok Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: DRS on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:16:47 Seen elsewhere that rudeski won the spoty awards after getting beat in the usa final.Mad to think Murray has won gold and now this and probably wont even make the shortlist. Was pleased for him tbh he gets alot of unfair stick imo
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:21:35 I'd have thought he'll make the shortlist. Probably won't win it though
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: ghanimah on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:22:39 Seen elsewhere that rudeski won the spoty awards after getting beat in the usa final.Mad to think Murray has won gold and now this and probably wont even make the shortlist. Was pleased for him tbh he gets alot of unfair stick imo I reckon Murray will make the short list given that he's a Wimbledon finalist, Olympic medal winner and grand slam winner all in one year. Whether he wins is another matter, my money would be on Bradley Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:27:35 It'll be a hell of a shortlist this year, Ennis, Farah, Wiggins, Murray, Weir, Rutherford, Nicola Adams, Hoy & a whole bunch of others much more deserving than the last few winners have been (I'm looking at you, Giggs and Philips)
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: DRS on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:28:14 Sorry i meant the top 3
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: nevillew on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 12:58:00 I have a feeling that the shortlist will include one, if not two, Paralympians. They could avoid this by nominating the Paralympians as 'Team of the Year', but the BBC Equality department might have some say in the matter.
Wiggins, Farah and Murray would be my top 3, based on achievements, and not necessarily in that order. Amazing that we've also got Hoy,Ennis,(Laura)Trott,(Rory)McIlroy. There are probably half a dozen others as well who could win in a 'normal' year. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: wiggy on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 13:03:47 Between Wiggins and Murray for me, but there are so many to choose from this year it is anyones guess, really. Wiggins has done something that no Brit has ever done before, and Murray has done something no Brit has managed for a long time. Olympic gold medals are ten a penny (this year at least).
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 13:06:13 I have a feeling that the shortlist will include one, if not two, Paralympians. They could avoid this by nominating the Paralympians as 'Team of the Year', but the BBC Equality department might have some say in the matter. As the BBC were at pains to point out during last year's sausage fest, the BBC don't pick the short list- every newspaper's sports departments send in ten names and then they pick the most common ten. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 13:20:07 A great win and finally Murray has won a grand slam. He played some outstanding tennis and fair play to Djorkovic for his sportsmanship. Hopefully he can now go on to win a few more and maybe even Wimbledon now the 'monkey is off his back' so to speak.
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Bob's Orange on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 13:46:22 Wonder what STFC Gazza thought of it all!
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 13:53:21 Wonder what STFC Gazza thought of it all! Not sure. He's too busy ignoring 9/11, in response to American shunning of our 7/7 tribute. Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 14:51:15 fantastic match was that. The rallies were immense. Fucking well done to Murray I say. My top 3 are Murray-mo-wiggins
Title: Re: U.S Open Final Post by: adje on Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 16:20:42 Apparently its his first Grand Slam win in 76 years
