#ANDYMURRAY
Sir Andy Murray showed his funny side once again as the Scottish tennis hero mocked US President Donald Trump on social media. @jennybencardino posted: “This is PROBABLY the best joke played on Trump this year. I said Time Magazine should PROBABLY print it on its cover.” @coffee_nutt tweeted: “Andy Murray 1 - Donald Trump 0” Not everyone was a fan – @Aladewoye said: “This is Andy Murray dissing President Trump & everybody is cheering him on. When Trump decides to reason his matter now, they will start shouting he’s a bully. Stay away from politics Andy.”
POLICESCOTLAND
Under-fire Justice Secretary Michael Matheson has admitted Police Scotland is facing a “challenging time” after a string of its most senior officers were relieved of active duty over complaints. MSP @Jameskellylab tweeted: “Just caught up with the Michael Matheson interview on BBC Sunday Politics on the Police Scotland suspensions. I am not sure why he went on. His line was I am not answering any questions and this is nothing to do with me.” @Howisonjim wrote: “Michael Matheson hopelessly trying to defend Police Scotland on Sunday politics Scotland. Then merging the BTP with them. Chaos after chaos!” @irnbrudreaming added: “Michael Matheson is far from convincing or reassuring on Police Scotland. Rabbit in headlights springs to mind. UK govt should step in.” @muteswann tweeted: “I have zero confidence in Michael Matheson’s ability to hold Police Scotland to account. Zero. Nil. Nada. 2.”
#ASONE
Last-minute call-up Byron Mcguigan scored a try double as Scotland ran up a record 53-24 win over 14-man Australia at Murrayfield. Scottish fans were suitably ecstatic. @Macdonaldwits posted: “What a day at Murrayfield yesterday. @Scotlandteam all over Australia – huge victory. What a time to be a Scotland rugby fan.#asone” @El_burko wrote: “5 years ago I feared for the future of Scottish #rugby but now #Scotland surge under Gregor Townsend with their most exciting side since 1999.”
