The Provost of Stirling has been sent hundreds of letters and emails asking when Andy Murray will be receiving the Freedom of the City, amid doubts it will happen before Christmas given the sportsman's schedule.
Provost Mike Robbins confirmed he had been in discussions over a date for the ceremony but said "the ball is in Andy's court" as to when he wants to receive the accolade.
The plan to give Murray the freedom of Stirling, which is close to his home town of Dunblane, was called for when the tennis ace won a gold medal at this year's Olympic Games.
