I think it's more a question of pride Cashy. He was determined to win and not for himself. All those watching recognised that and were behind him as never before...he did us proud as far as I'm concerned. I wish him all the best in the final and a silver medal is nothing to sniff at if he doesn't make the final hurdle.

Am willing to wager another fiver with your good self in any case

No bets from me but if Murray can't win this final he's got little hope of ever winning Wimbledon..Federer played a five hour game today and must be kaked.

Just watched Murray/Robson go into the semi-finals of the mixed doubles -entertaining tennis.

Also caught young athlete Adam Gemili getting through the first heat of the 100Metres -amazing enthusiasm and a promising athlete.

Well I have to say this will be the first time I would love him to win because he's playing for GB not himself
As for last night, the other half wanted to watch the games, so I did have the odd glance at what was happeningwow some performances from GB
