Should david cameron fly the saltire in downing st tomorrow for andy murray,as he did for english football team in the world cup.My view is he should but doubt he will.

interesting one that ,but when a national football side play its a one of the four nations ,when a tennis player plays as with many other sports its as either GB or UK in their official description , perhaps that answers the question or gives a reason why your view may well be correct

edit unless you read the sun then he is english ffs

Would not worry if he gets gubbed tomorrow he will be reported as a scot again.

thats true Elf
just a pity the draw has thrown him and nadal together i think that would have been a good final ,im not over keen on mens tennis i prefer the womens ... no not just for that but think its more entertaining than the serve dominant based mens game
still will enjoy the last few days of wombling world series

No, because Tennis is a puff sport

Andy Murray and his brother are the only 2 men in Scotland that own tennis bats.

Saltire....over here sounds like something we'd probably spread cream cheese on and eat it...
