Yes, I'm sure he wouldnt, but at least he would know about it.

Murray has retired only twice in his career, how awful
 |
|
By:
SoA what is your twitter tag ?
|
|
By:
There's a difference between bullying other Betfair customers and professional tennis players. Tennis players do not use Betfair, and if they do, I am sure they do not use the forum. I would not go onto Twitter and bully a tennis player though, just tell them what I think.

By:
is sending abusive messages not bullying
 |
|
By:
"Retiring and screwing everybody over just because you and your rat infested perm wanted a birthday party" is not exactly the nicest message ever either.
|
|
By:
Did I post that to him on Twitter, edy?
|
|
By:
When, as everyone sensible has noted, Murray would NEVER EVER do something like that
|
|
By:
How would you know? Do you know him personally?
|
|
By:
No you didn't. Just what I would imagine your message to look like. Surely you'd use the birthday nonsense, right?
|
|
By:
If I went onto Twitter and said to him 'I think it is very unprofessional to retire.. I suspect you just wanted to have a party this evening', then he'd be able to contradict it with an argument if he wanted to.
|
|
By:
As for that last question, there's more than enough statistical evidence that Murray does never retire without a proper reason. That should count big time for someone like you.
|
|
By:
Why exactly is it so unprofessional retire btw? I think it's very professional and best for the remainder of his season
|
|
By:
because he's costing us all money!!!111
|
|
By:
You evidently did not watch the match.
|
|
By:
Being a professional athlete after all means that you earn your bagels (no pun intended) by playing matches. Worsening an injury could very well make you lose the very ability to play those matches that make up your profession.
|
|
By:
yeah, Murray was showing no signs of injury all match
|
|
By:
Of course, I am glad he retired because had he played the third set he was likely to win the match, and I would have lost money, so I think my position on this is quite balanced.

By:
You don't understand tennis at all! He was playing this tournament for a bit of practice, he retired because he wanted to celebrate this evening, and he faked an injury so that he had an excuse. That is what I think, and so I will say it, whether it offends you or not.
|
|
By:
And you ignore the fact that other people in the sport have criticised him for faking injuries too. Do they not know what they are talking about either?
|

you should be winning money on every match SorA with your deep psychological insight into these players

SoA only likes good looking tennis pros.
|
|
By:
mainly because of those accursed cat pictures which were getting in the way of the discussions on here.
|
|
By:
I like Bartoli, and she is not good looking.
|
|
By:
SorA still waiting for the next Mansour Bahrami to come along
|
|
By:
Im not sure there are many good looking tennis players anyway.
|
|
By:
You like Bartoli, and yet you constantly write nasty things about her.
|
|
By:
 |
|
By:
Yes, I dont know her personally, but I like her attitude. I don't like her fitness attitude however.
|
|
By:
so it's okay to make jokes about her weight then
|
|
By:
Murray does not fake injuries per se. People think he tends to overdramatise niggles, that is right. But who is to say that you're not allowed to touch your back if feel a niggle there? I know if I do sports and I twist something or feel something, I'm all over checking it out.
He very rarely takes medical timeouts for those niggles, so I don't quite know why people like you are arrogant enough to suggest he outright fakes injuries. They're not in his body, are they? If he, for a change, takes a medical timeout, or retires it is his choice and he doesn't do either lightly. He has more than proven himself in that department ever since he made his debut on the tour. |

By:
who cares whether wta player is particulary good looking or not I would **** nearly every single one of them, you;d be hard pushed to find one which i wouldn't, maybe shiavonne and venus apart, but bartoli definitely, as for her fitness it's obvious she wants to have her cake and eat it, still sweats like a pig in a butchers shop though trying to win a match,
|
|
By:
He doesnt take injury timeouts when he is winning does he? What does that tell you?
|
|
By:
It's incredible that a statsman like you completely refuses to acknowledge the significance of Murray's injury and retirement history just because you like to believe in your own lil conspiracy theory.
