To be jealous of the Beckhams?!

Right. I'm a huge Wimbledon fan. I've camped out, queued up, gone into the Ballot every year trying to get tickets (been successful twice in about 30 years) and yet I've just seen the Beckhams arrive for the Mens Final.

VB is all dolled up like she's on the catwalk, DB is suited and booted and they have one of the best seats in the house. Is this fair? Nope. Because real tennis fans can't get to see the sport they love. I'd think far more of them if just occasionally they donated their special seats to a Tennis Club so a real fan me could fulfil their dream of seeing the Mens Final.

I know 'money talks' but even if I had the money I still couldn't get to the Mens Finals because I'm not famous. Angry

Rant over.

I'm not AIBU am I....or am I?!

I adore Chris Hemsworth and want to know why his wife is apparently so ghastly??? Confused Hmm

I think smiling improves most people's faces. (Unless you're Nigel farage) . Now he should NEVER smile.

Feds lost it...

Roussette · 06/07/2014 16:49

yes agree water. If we all went round looking like VB unable to crack a smile, the world would be prettty miserable

I used to fancy Stefan Edberg rotten when he was playing. He's still got it.

Roussette · 06/07/2014 16:54

Oh god yes he has - he's a handsome man indeed drooling

I wish Fed would stop coming into the net. It's not working for him, and he won seven championships without having to do much of it previously.

Roussette · 06/07/2014 16:56

blimey, three break serve games in a row

Okay, that approach worked...

ForTheBants · 06/07/2014 17:01

I feel a it sorry for VB this afternoon. She could be at home getting excited over this fab match, as we all are. But instead, she's committed herself to an afternoon of not moving her face as she thinks that's her best look.

The animated Cambridges just make her po-faced nonsense look more ridiculous, imo.

Roussette · 06/07/2014 17:03

Yes Bants. I just wish she would just loosen up. The only time she does anything remotely like a relaxing look is when she takes a posed selfie of herself and posts it somewhere. Such a shame.

Matts Wilander was my favourite! I went to Wimbledon twice as a teenager and bought his postcards!

londonrach · 06/07/2014 17:06

Just see them get the cup out. It's not over yet.... Feds not beaten. Cup going back in...

XiX · 06/07/2014 17:11

Eek!

Roussette · 06/07/2014 17:12

3 hours of play. How it can even begin to compare to womens tennis I don't know. Especially as yesterdays Final was over in less than an hour.
