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

I've temporarily been overcome with stupidity, Ali. I know that. I have no idea what that last post was about Blush.

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:26

No need to call him a turd Shock

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:28

We've managed to go through 4 threads if not more without resorting to calling players we don't like names... Don't start now...

HappyAsEyeAm · 03/07/2013 19:29

Did he bloody win?! Seriously? I put the DC to bed when he was a a break in the third. Bbc1 Live pause didn't work and Bbc2 weren't showing it. Did he win?

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:30

Yes happy he won - Happy!? Smile

ClayDavis · 03/07/2013 19:30

Yes, happy, 7-5 in the final set.

hugoagogo · 03/07/2013 19:31

Yep Murray won the last three sets.

CatsAndTheirPizza · 03/07/2013 19:31

Seize NO! Seriously? Eugh.

Compos what was graceless about that interview? He's just not smarmy/plastic like some sports people.

JaquelineHyde · 03/07/2013 19:31

Well said seize no name calling please.

HappyAsEyeAm · 03/07/2013 19:31

Bloody amazed, seize. Really shocked. He didn't seem to have got it together when I left it in the third, even though he was a break up. Good god. Wow.

Are you still on prom duties? Have missed everything!

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:32

cats yes, oh yes please Grin

Startail · 03/07/2013 19:32

Please can everyone who can tweet tell 5 live to stop waffling, commentate and clearly give the score.

Had to take DD somewhere and they were driving me nuts.

highlandcoo · 03/07/2013 19:33

Jeez what a nerve-shredding experience!

Compos he's not graceless and sourfaced. The man's exhausted and the implication from the interviewer that Lendl should be telling him off when he's fought back so doggedly and won through was ill-thought out to put it mildly IMO

HappyAsEyeAm · 03/07/2013 19:33

What an amazing turn around by Murray. He did brilliantly.

NotAQueef · 03/07/2013 19:33

Phew!

specialsubject · 03/07/2013 19:34

a nation puts the kettle on...

see you Friday!

NotAQueef · 03/07/2013 19:34

highland i agree

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:34

happy I missed fourth and fifth set because of prom duties and could not get internet at the house we were at so my mate called me up with news... was home for the last 3 games of final set.
Tomorrow, Friday and weekend - absolutely nothing going on - I am glued to house and barring sudden emergency that has to involve a birth or a death? Not moving!

highlandcoo · 03/07/2013 19:35

And I also thought the smiles and exchange of comments between the two players at the end were charming and genuine

I am a Murray fan, always have been Smile

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:36

special We will all be here tomorrow for ladies finals if you are about Smile

JaquelineHyde · 03/07/2013 19:36

What time does it kick off on Friday and do we know the order of play yet? I might need to juggle some school pick ups and after school clubs around.

CatsAndTheirPizza · 03/07/2013 19:36

seize no, please no. Why?

Exactly highland.

HappyAsEyeAm · 03/07/2013 19:38

Chuffed for you seize that you saw the end. It all came good in the end for you I have both DC asleep now, but too late. I ballsed up the bbc1 live pause, and despite saying that the tennis would be on bbc2 from 5:50, which was what i also recorded, they kept it on bbc1. So I missed it all. Happy that he is through though, despite missing it. I am watching the remaining QF now.

FreedomOfTheTess · 03/07/2013 19:38

I've met Andy Murray and he's a jolly nice chap.

I'd fail to show "grace" in an interview when (a) the interviewer is asking stupid questions and (b) I'd just played in an epic 3½ hour match.

siezethenight · 03/07/2013 19:40

I meant that I missed the third and fourth sets... I'm going to go check if we have any beer in, I think I need a calming drink!
