CoopsLaud 4,184 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Heart goes out to the guy, certainly the best sportsman scotland has produced. My pal knew his dad when he ran an rs mcolls.

RJMcGregor 741 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Such a shame to be going so early, I see some people giving him shit for crying on the radio, but I imagine if you had dedicated the amount of time effort and skill that he has into this profession to then have it all cut short, I imagine you too would be a mess. The guy lives and breathes tennis ffs, of course, he will be upset that you're removing a central pillar from his life. I feel he has been quite unfortunate with the time he came into tennis when there are two other incredible players, maybe in another age, Murray would have gone on to dominate. Who knows, hope you at least make it to Wimbledon. You have done Scotland proud Andy delparlane and siamthedanger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic 4,654 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Was brilliant seeing him win Wimbledon. We offered him a contract to play for us when he was 14. Turned it down to focus on tennis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
