"The Mighty Hibees, Sue.."

[SKII]

Just heard Sue Barker interview Jamie Murray and his American doubles partner on the BBC.

They were talking pre Wimbledon and Ms Barker asked the Yank whether he had been introduced to "soccer" by the Murray Bros yet. He said that, as a young player he had come to the UK for tournaments and had previously adopted Chelsea and unwittingly had followed them until he linked up with Murray.

Seems Andy got him telt that following Chelski was the equivalent of supporting the NY Yankees - a team American the lad seemingly despises - and so he asked for pearls of wisdom from the Murray Brothers as to who he should support...

Asking Jamie Murray who he had recommended, the Dunblane lad said

"In Scotland it has to be Hibs". He continued that Andy had recommended Arsenal and Thierry Henry as the best to watch in England and Barcelona (no surprise there then).

So that's Andy and Jamie Murray proud to be Hibbies and doing their missionary work on the tennis tour by all accounts...
