... stubborn mispronunciation of Norrie?

It rhymes with sorry, not story!

I would partially excuse any non-British speakers.

But to unilaterally decide to pronounce someone's name incorrectly while surrounded by people saying it properly seems rude and arrogant.

I have tried to get a life, honestly!

He’ll be out of the tournament soon so you’ll no longer suffer irritation 😄

Isittimeformynapyet · 05/07/2022 17:07

Not a good start, admittedly, but long way to go yet.

But yes, I will have to let it go if Gaufin wins 😩

Agree Lloyd is an idiot for mispronouncing someone’s name. How would he like it us people called him Jonah Lloyd? Grrrr.

This Goffin (does it rhyme with Coffin?) fellow is a bit too good for my liking.

Oh, they've switched the fucking channel again 🤬

Update:

Lloyd just said Norrie correctly. I think he's on MN!

The channel switching is intense, if you wanted to record it you'd badge a lot of trouble!

Presume the news that Javid and Sunak have resigned trumps the last almost Brit in the tennis buy it is really irritating

I was watching too. The Tories and their sleaze is old news sadly

He always talks about Endy Murray too

John Lloyd is insufferable.

Still not as bad as Andrew Castle though!
