Here we are wonderful Wednesday
ORDER OF PLAY

Of course I'm rooting for Ferrer- Vamos! But would love Del Potato to dowell too,so torn.
Kubot/Janowicz, bit difficult to call really.
Would love Berdych to triumph over Djoko- (then Ferrer can whup him in the semi'sGrin)
Am going for Verdasco- obs, as he's Spanish, and it would be wrong not tooGrin - I'm sure Murray is not without support!Grin

here's to a limited rain disruption!

His frame of mind is all over the shop, swearing, shouting.

Just like he used to be a couple of years ago. I thought he'd matured out of that actually.

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 17:13

Maybe just as well I have to go out. I can't bear this really. Grease monkey can not win.

FarleyD · 03/07/2013 17:13

Do you think his hip or back or something is troubling him? He seems to be moving well enough though.

FarleyD · 03/07/2013 17:14

Lendl will lock him in the cellar and give him bread and water rations if he doesn't get it together.

Stila · 03/07/2013 17:14

Oh no ............ I'll be gutted if this means no more Lendl !

Raahh love that pic .... reminds me of that Tsonga one Grin

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 17:14

Hopefully he has had a blip and has the maturity that was lacking in his earlier years to fight on through and back into it.

Startail · 03/07/2013 17:15

Oh come on Murry!

Raahh · 03/07/2013 17:15

Stila- think it's from the same charity shoot.

Lady- it's the very reason I've never enoyed watching him play. Very poor show when losing.

What's worse do you think? Having the weight of the crowd's expectation, or having no one in the crowd cheering you on?

FarleyD · 03/07/2013 17:16

Think I'd rather have no one cheering me on, less pressure.

JaquelineHyde · 03/07/2013 17:18

Come on Murray!!

Stila · 03/07/2013 17:18

Yes looks like Raahh ....... just looking at the sexiest men in tennis that that pic links through to Grin

LadyBryan · 03/07/2013 17:19

farley - I honestly don't know. I guess its probably 50/50 - some players prefer to have the noise and the support, others find it difficult.

Raahh - you're absolutely correct. Bad sportsman at times I think. Which is sad because a lot of the time he seems a nice guy!

HappyAsEyeAm · 03/07/2013 17:20

Leaving you ladies for a while. I am live pausing the bbc1 action, and recording the bbc2 programme which starts at 6pm. That way, I shouldn't miss anything. The DC are too small (5 and 1) for me to send to karate or a prom, unfortunately Smile

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 17:20

I would rather no crowd behind me also. I always thought it a huge burden for Henman and Murray to have such a weight on their shoulders each Wimbledon. Plus I am the belligerent sort - I would thrive on the crowd willing me to loose, it would make me want to win harder.

Guests have got snacks - I am hiding in kitchen behind a tea towel.

CatsAndTheirPizza · 03/07/2013 17:22

I think he might be back. Also think he needs the crowd. Am hoarse from yelling at the screen.

Raahh · 03/07/2013 17:23

Gahhhhhhhh! My family keep wanting to talkto me.

If you want no atmosphere- pity the poor sods on court one- it's barely full, and all they can hear is mutterings from Centre!

JaquelineHyde · 03/07/2013 17:25

Murray really needs to win this set convincingly and get some belief back!

NotAQueef · 03/07/2013 17:27

You can do it Andy!!

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 17:27

I have to go in 15 mins. Please will you keep this thread updated on score? I will be driving for a while and then okay to use phone.

Raahh · 03/07/2013 17:28

I think there needs to be at least 1 5 set match in the quarters. I don't think it's going to be the Kubot/janowicz one though.

JaquelineHyde · 03/07/2013 17:29

Will do sieze, although I do get rather absorbed in the action which is why I keep going quiet. With all the others chipping in I'm sure we can keep a good running commentary going.

Chubfuddler · 03/07/2013 17:30

MY MOBILE DIED AND I WAS AT WORK

OH MY GOD THE STRESS

I have caused this. White queen style I bargained for serena's demise with andys and it is coming true. Aaaaaarrrgghh

CatsAndTheirPizza · 03/07/2013 17:30

I think he'll do it now - his conviction is back and his eyes have changed
