Andy Murray Cursed (Again) Loses Open

Back in July last year Andy Murray was cursed by Jonah Brown.  Earlier this week when Gordon wished Murray well against Federer many co-conspirators winced and commented that this was the kiss of death again.  Murray had made it to the finals of a grand slam tournament, he was on form.  Surely, this time, he could be spared the curse.  After all he had already suffered its wrath.

So it has transpired.  Andy Murray has lost the Australian Open Final to Roger Federer in straight sets 6-3, 6-4, 7-6.

What will it take to stop Gordon cursing the nation’s sportsmen?

      Methinks that even worse was that Gordon became distraught and went into a half naked rage because Obama snubbed him. Alastair Campbell was correct, Gordon is psychologically flawed.

          • Phany Stroaker says:

            “Batter” as in what: to hit repeatedly or to coat with sticky gooey stuff. The former might be a goer due to size/weight advantages, though these could be negated with agility and visual limitations, and the general concensus indicates that the latter is completely out of the question.

        It therefore follows that he did not pull a secretary out of her chair. We are sure she fell out in a moment of passion.

      Gordon Brown, who comes across — as he usually does on these occasions — as a psychologically damaged, sulking bully without a policy to his name. And at one point even as “bonkers”.

      http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/books/non-fiction/article7004785.ece

      Watt relates the tale of a ghastly dinner party at No 10 that he attended with his wife. Before the guests were seated, Brown was called away to the phone. When he returned the guests had sat around the table and Brown said furiously: “I didn’t sit you all down!” Watt takes up the tale: “Then he swivelled in his chair, so that he almost had his back to everybody and leaned his head on his arm. For the rest of the meal he was mono­syllabic, sulking because he had lost control of the seating plan. The plates had not even been cleared when, quite suddenly, without saying anything, he just got up and left. As Sarah had also dis­appeared by then we all quite literally had to show ourselves out. ‘He’s bonkers,’ Vilma [Watt’s wife] whispered, as we trooped out.”

      The “Nation’s Sportsmen” ought to stop considering themselves as the property of the “nation”, such as they might have been in East Germany in the 1960s and 1970s, and ought to stop looking to the “Prime Minister” – whoever that droid might be at any time in the history of the world – and look to themselves and to their own skills as sportsmen and sportswomen.

      One or more of them, and preferably all of them, ought to stand up and say:-

      LISTEN GORDON BROWN! STAY AWAY from us – don’t come to our do’s – don’t praise us – especially don’t praise us! – and don’t even think about us.

      We DO NOT WANT you to even think about us, for you Are Death. You Are Become Death, The Destroyer Of Worlds.

        Let’s be fair, though. “In April 2005, Ms Berger claimed she had been spat on at a student conference for being Jewish and resigned from the executive of the National Union of Students in protest at lack of action over anti-semitism on university campuses.” A very deserving case, if I say so myself.

    Get rid of Labour says:

    Yes, but the depressing opinion polls out this morning demonstrate that the Conservatives have been doing a lousy job of pinning the blame for our current mess where it lies – with Gordon Brown.

    Gordon Brown is directly responsible for the current dire state of the public finances.
    It is Gordon Brown’s fault that we went into the Credit Crunch with public borrowing already far too high – meaning that this country was worst placed to deal with it.
    It is Gordon Brown’s fault that the financial services sector was not properly regulated, leading directly to Northern Crock, RBS, HBOS and the rest.

    It can all be laid directly at the door of the worst Chancellor and Prime Mentalist ever, but the Tories have failed to get that easy message across.

    The reason is that Labour, dispite their disunity, disarray, incompetence and lies, Labour is still the better propaganda outfit!

    I have discussed the situation with my wife – we are going to sell up and move overseas if the worst Government in history manages to srape a win or a hung Parliament. This country is finished in any case, but given the lack of our ability to pay our way in the world any longer, a Labour election victory would be the final nail in this country’s coffin!

          I don’t blame Cameron – he has done a good job of reaching out to swing voters. I blame the policy wonks in Central Office – the key to driving a message home is repetition, but they have been very bad at driving home that Brown is personally responsible for our parlous state as a nation.

          Looks like the BoE will extend QE in its next meeting. After the election, all the chickens will come home to roost. Higher inflation, higher taxes, spending cuts, ratings downgrade, IMF bail out – these are all on the cards and are nailed on if FWIT Brown were (horror of horrors) to remain as PM.

            Everything you say is correct, whichever party wins. If the Tories win the election, Labour will spend the rest of eternity repeating endlessly that the mess happened under a Conservative government and the bovine electorate of this country will come to believe it.

            The Tories probably secretly want Labour to win (which is why they’re sticking with unelectable Cameron) because in the medium to long term it will be better for them.

          No, the problem is that the Tories have no balls. If thery did then they would be presenting real Conservative policies, not these bluLabour policies.

          • Can’t argue with that, unless their keeping their balls with their powder until the election campaign proper.

            The lack of any real attack on Brown has to be deliberate, too soon and Labour could change him for a less hated figure.

            I expect they’ll land their best punches in the last weeks of April.

          • I have real policies, green taxes lots of them, global warming is a real danger, it’s proven science. I believe in a strong EU and that we should fund them properly.

BUT: can we please accept also that some financiers have been quite incredibly unprofessional and failed miserably yet seek to stuff the peopls’ bail-out money in their pockets unless they are stopped. In a few instances I have little doubt there have been crimes committed that have thus far gone unpunished.

        Get rid of Labour says:

        Of course financiers are to blame – but who created the regulatory environment in which they flourished? Gordon Brown – he set up the useless FSA, the so called tri-partite regulatory system.

        It was Gordon Brown who knighted Sir Fred Goodwin for “services to banking”.
        It was Gordon Brown who was deficit spending during the years of growth, leaving the country unable to deal effectively with the crash.
        It is Gordon Brown who has doubled the national debt, leaving us with inflationary QE and a looming funding crisis.

        It is all Brown’s personal responsibility, yet the Tories are letting him get away with it.

        It is akin to inviting a burglar into your house, asking him to have sex with your wife and walk away with all your valuables with a pat on the back and congratulations for a job well done!

It is a job search thing under supervision. But in such centres you will find the sort of charts and photos on walls which belong in a primary schools.
      When someone enters one of these schemes they COME OFF THE JOBLESS FIGURES. The questions we should ask are:
      How many people of working age in the UK are not in actual, bona fide, fully salaried employment.
      How many millions of jobs in the UK are part-time only, or on such poverty wage rates that taxpayers are unwittingly having to partly pay for their living costs and housing.

        I wouldn’t normally disagree with you on that, but my take on it isn’t that we’re under the influence of zionist lackeys, but that the US (and by extension Blair et al) are worried about the one rogue state in the region that does possess WMD, and will go to great lengths to stop that state using WMD (though disproportionate force against Lebanese and Palestinians is OK).

    To: The Awards Committee

    Comrades,

    I wish to draw your attention to the actions of Comrade Sopel o to-day’s Politics Show coming from Davos

    Comrade Sopel bravely questioned the arch-capitalist Cameron interrupting him at least 15 times regarding his party’s policies and sceptically asking if he expected the British people to trust the Conservatives to form the next government when they were talking about ruining the recovery with their proposed “savage” public expenditure cuts. In addition during the same programme he also interviewed the Great Panjandrum the Right Honourable the all high Lord Mandelson and was pleasingly subservient and barely interupted the “great man” in his party political broadcast for Labour allowing him to accuse Cameron of deliberately being disloyal to the United Kingdom.

    For such sterling work for the party I wish to recommend Comrade Sopel for the Order of the Red Banner Second Class and I trust that you will concur. Such endeavours should be held as the very highest attainment possible for our current affairs employees

And yet , and yet , despite this, despite all the stats, all the evidence, all the history of failure in international competitions every 4 years the English convince themselves that they are at the same top table as these Nations and make themselves favourites to win the thing.

        It beggars belief but there you have it.

        And by the way take out the foreign imports including Managers( Scots Included) and the Premiership would be a bog standard competition as well.

        So do not delude yourself, you aren’t as good as you think you are.

        And then there is John Terry…..

            Heh.. “pumped on your own doorstep” (i.e. scraping home by a single goal)? Should hate to see a beating by, say, a 4-goal margin. (Oh, we just have.)

            Reason Scotland has never got very far with World Cup / Euro’s / Champions League is that Scots evidently don’t understand basic concepts like rules:
            “Ock aye, 1967 is when we won the World Cup of ya..”
            “No, mate. That’s not how it works. First you have to Qualify (something you rarely accomplish), then you have to pass through the group stages (something you’ve NEVER accomplished), then through the knock-out stages (obviously, you can’t do this without the previous 2 stages), and then win the final (well, we’re just wasting our breath, talking about Scotland and Finals)..”

            You see, 0-2 (Hamden) & 0-1 (Wembley) = ENGLAND WIN (and yet you hold this up as a triumph?!)

            Had some great players in your time, but Scottish Football is sh1te.

            To the level accusation of, “There are only 2 teams in Scotland”, we always used to hear, “Well there’s only 1 team in England – Manchester United!” Really? I thought it was “Top4″?

            Bring Celtic and Rangers down to the ‘EPL’ and watch them basejump freefall through the divisions, down to Doctor Martin’s Sunday-Pub-Side League where they belong.

    That is a good enough reason in itself to be a sceptic

Skepticism is an approach to accepting, rejecting, or suspending judgment on new information that requires the new information to be well supported by argument or evidence.[3] Individuals who proclaim to have a skeptical outlook are frequently called skeptics, often without regard to whether it is philosophical skepticism or empirical skepticism that they profess.[4]

    I read on a previous post that Andy Murray was racist towards England. Hmmm! Can a Scot be racist towards England?

    I heard the newscaster earlier today on BBC News say Andy Murray had FAILED today. I was sure he had managed to get to the final of the Australian open. Some failure that was then. I guess all the other players trying to get to the final, and didn’t manage it, were failures too.

    Did Laura Robson fail too? Poor little mite, just 16 and already called a failure by her own country. How many winning tennis players in the UK do we have? When did the UK last win a grand slam? It’s funny really this country does not support it’s athletes financially, most have to go abroad to train at a very early age, and yet they expect their sportsmen to win everything. It’s never enough to get to the finals, Oh! no, you have to win.

    The Government are happy to be photographed with successful sportsmen/women but they won’t lift a finger to help them financially.

    Andy and Laura may not have won but they have done more than any of those idiots who have done nothing more than sit and read an auto cue – without it they are useless just ask Fiona Bruce. What have they done to be able to call Andy and Laura FAILURES?

      Well said – our sportsmen/women do well for us despite the poor support they get from government and especially compared to the support that us sportspeople get.

      But your comment ‘can the scots be racist towards England’?

      Politically they have proved that they are! C’mon look what gordon and his scots labour pals have done to us!!

      What have they got in cotland , that gordon et al has allowed? Free Prescription. Free care for the elederly, generous cancer care and treatment and on and on…..

      All of which we don’t have in England!!!!

    When Brown was chairing the NI political talks in Belfast last week, they almost collapsed

    Then he left and there was suddenly a remarkable in the atmosphere. Indeed, we now seem near agreement – but, desperate for some positive news and for someone to talk to, Jonah’s threatening to come back.

    Please please please Gordon , stay away. Give us a chance!

    Handbags at dawn at the BBC’s creative department.

    Take a look at the picture of the squit of a producer further down the page, and tell me he’s not one of the mafia of gay producers who drive the agendas at the BBC. I hold no brief for Poliakoff who sounds like a pompous oaf who’s just been given a dose of reality, but this reminds me of an episode of ‘Extras’ where Ricky Gervais’ character falls foul of one of these gay bitches, and ends up having to apologise to the little shit to save the show he’s trying to pitch.

    Fuck me. Is everyone at the BBC on drugs? They said (about Murray) that he mounted a come back. So let’s remind us of the score again Federer won by 3 sets to 0. I call that a thrashing.

    Nell,

    We don’t have free prescriptions in Scotland. I think that is the plan for the future but with the enormous cut in the budget this year from Whitehall I suspect this is a pipe dream. I think the Welsh may get free prescriptions. I believe our prescriptions have been reduced in price. I wonder how many people pay for their prescriptions. I am afraid I can’t remember the last time I needed a prescription, thankfully, so I don’t even know how much they cost.

    As for free care for the elderly. A nice mantra I have to say but I wonder just how many people actually get that free care. Once again I am not sure since my family care for their own and haven’t needed to have that level of care. If the Scottish Government are spending money on their young students, elderly and sick in our society it means that money is not being spent or wasted elsewhere. I can’t argue with that.







Parliamentary Standards Commissioner John Lyon said of LibDem MPs…

“The effect of members not making over these payments to the House was to put their private interest above their public interest, contrary to the Code of Conduct for Members of Parliament.”
