Re: Q & A- rocketassist
Which international football team do you support?
Who's your favourite Big Brother contestant of all time?
Who did you support before Murray?
Do you have any pets?
How many Grand Slam will Murray win in his career?

People slagged Henman off, I bet Andy Murray doesn't get as far as the semi-finals of Wimbeldon in his career, let alone four times. He won't come close to matching Tim's achievements

1 reluctantly for the most part, England. I tend to be ambivalent but then during tournament time I always get caught up in the jingoism, as do my mates (only one of my lad mates is fiercely patriotic England fan) and we all watch the games together. I find the football they play for the most part quite hideous though and often have little sadness when they lose playing that way. I have an affinity for the Venezuela national team from when they were bottom and have built their way up admirably
2 erm I only watched series 1-2 when it was actually a new concept. Probably Nasty Nick. Awesome heel.
3 Erm I liked all kinds of players around the 00-04 time before he arrived on the scene. He isn't the only player I root for either, just the most obvious.
4 No
5 I'm just delighted he got the one after supporting him for eight years it was pretty special the USO, though I think he could end his career with 2-3 and the #1 ranking. He's not THAT good to go on a tear, but he'll be a contender for every slam except RGs for three or four years most likely given the lack of competition emerging from the new generation beyond.

Re: Q & A- rocketassist
Nedved's my favorite too
I really miss him.
And Juninho was probably the best free-kick taker ever. He was out of this world.

There are ads here?  You could've used FF and Adblock+ for free, but it's good to support the forum I guess
Btw, I forgot the question: how do you feel about other native English speakers (Irish/Australians/Canadians/Americans), i.e. closer/more related or same as about any foreigners, just they happen to speak English.

1 2004 after US Open juniors, thought it might be an exciting ride but never envisaged at the time it would come to this.
2 No. I respect him though and can adknowledge his peak level was the best level I've ever seen from any player. Against Djokovic and certainly Nadal I would root for Fed though.

1 In the Ashes yeah, in other tests I'm not overly fussed to be honest although they've been very good against India the last couple of games.
2 Test, not close
3 Flintoff, Swann, Tendulkar, Gilchrist, Vettori, Leverock, Murali, Malinga, Afridi
4 Never worn one
5 Agassi or Guga
6 Both, I suppose
7 Amusing to a degree

I don't know- sure there's more in common and communication is easier but I wouldn't consider myself any closer to them than say, the French or Belgians which are the nearest countries geographically that don't have English as their language.
