Title: Can sky stop licking Murray's backside?

I am absolutely sick of how arrogant sky's commentators are with Murray matches, they are disrespectful to all of his opponents at the start and any decent winner by Murray is labelled as "extraordinary" by that useless excuse for a player they call Petchey!

I though Bjorkman would cause Murray a lot of problems yesterday and was proven right (predicted five-set win for Murray). He's the golden oldie of the tour and doing a fabulous job. But Sky just cast him aside right from the off!

Petchey in particular must be the worst tennis commentator I have ever heard =- where's his sense of perspective? SACK HIM!!! :angry: :angry: :angry:

I actually have to agree with you there sam, Annabel Croft seemed to think yesterday that Murray would reach the semis :rolleyes:


I mean his draw is favourable but let him beat Lee before worrying about Davydenko before worrying about Blake ;)

That doesn't mean I want sky to stop showing his matches though ;) ;)

Glad we agree SG :hug:

I just get annoyed how everything positive Murray does on a tennis court is blown out of proportion by the sky people. Yes I know they want to push him for the viewing figures etc., but... :rolleyes:

I think Murray will take Lee out, but after that will have to play well to take Davydenko. Considering his lack of recent matches though, I was 50-50 whether he was going to beat Bjorkman, whose very sensible game catches out nearly anybody who isn't at the best.

No i'd just like Eurosport/BBCi to get the matches too so I can have decent commentary roflmao

Or better still, maybe I should just press the mute button. But then I hear dad snoring instead roflmao
