Tyrant

Lopez played a 5 setter on Monday and then played in the doubles. So Surely Andy's got to be fresher. Hope he gets the job done efficiently. Not sure that Nadal is tired to be honest. He's one of the fittest players on the tour. A 4 setter is nothing for him after only really winning games in straight sets before his match against Del Potro. His injury might be a factor but I doubt it. I think Nadal's tennis will once again be far too aggressive for Murray to cope with provided he gets through. I say all this because the opposite always happens whenever I predict anything.

Thank fuck.

Absolute nonsense min. I've always rated Clark. Often caused opposition defences problems on the wing as I remember. Pussy? I would have maybe agreed with that up until the day he binned Alan Hutton.

I heard that for Gonzalez.

So is it aff or just on hold?

Goalkeeper! It's went a bit quiet on the De Gea front. Is that because he's playing the U21 Euros?

if Andy Carroll is worth £35m then Fraser Fyvie is worth a few mill.

Aye I don't think he's better than what Man Utd currently have.

As long as he helps us smuggles some points out of Ibrox.

Ace min.

Aye it ended up being much easier than it looked like it was going to be. Having said that I think it'll be over by the semi final unfortunately.

That long ago eh? Mental. What a bounce though!

I'd be really depressed if we bit Fulham's hand off at a million for Fyvie. If they really want him show us the fucking money or fuck off. I hope this is in fact made up shite from a shite journo.

No I wouldn't but McLeish has been at Birmingham for just a few years and nae his whole career like McCoist has been at Hungers. Remember how McLeish left Birmingham. He left in apparently a fairly disrespectful way and joined their close rivals. Villa fans should look at it in a different light.

Not sure why everyone's got such a hard on. It will be a complete snore-fest like maist other friendlies. Man Utd game anyone? Utter shite. I'll still be gan though.

Surely we're allowed to discuss them? It's not as if we're posting a list? Can we not have our weekly "Dons V some other shite" threads anymore since that has the fixture in the name? Agree about the world going mad. Utterly ridiculous state of afairs.

Can we nae even discuss fixtures like?

That's because they're a bunch of stupid twats. I think McLeish will be their best appointment since MoN.

That's plenty. Anyone seen him looking for flats in Torry yet?

Shite player no club! Shite player no club!

He's a free agent now isn't he? Nae even our problem anymore!

Agree about avoiding Soderling. Tsonga and Wawrinka are tough but Murray's beaten them both at Wimbledon recently. Tsonga last year in three and I think Wawrinka was either last year or the year before? Anyway. While there aren't likely to be any easy matches Murray should be ok all the way to the semis. There's no good or bad draw. There are too many top class players for any draw to be much better than the other. Murray proved to me (in the way he beat Andy Roddick and Jo-Wilfred Tsonga) that he's got the game to beat the best. I know there are better players than Roddick and Tsonga but he made them both looks like mugs. Roddick more so. I know it's cliche but I think he has to manage to genuinely believe in himself. After this week at Queens I don't believe the gap between Murray and the top 3 is as big as I previously thought but he now needs to display some serious mental toughness.

If he plays like he did against Roddick he can go all the way. That was outstanding.

BBIG.

You're right. It's less than a rumour! Even Charlie Allan hasn't read it on here and ran with it on the back pages!
