Was he trying to read Inverdale's mind?
If so, no wonder it went wrong. It is impossible to fathom what goes on in that twat's mind - he's not a thinker!

With this heat, the tennis balls will be flying through the air at great speed. Djoko has got a much better serve and is a more aggressive player who goes for winners more often, so I think it will be to his advantage.

I can't see Andy having a chance to be honest, unless Djoko suffers fromheat exhaustion.

College is out here also, has been for near 2 weeks now.

I can not trash Castle anymore Glaik I promised MNHQ that I had learned my lesson on the matter after I agreed with him on something he said the other day, they were really Smile with me - they said he was a nice man and now I am a believer Grin

claig Murray does have a chance. He's beaten Djok before now, they have met many times so they know each other's game well.
If the Number 2 in the world has no chance against the number 1 then, what's the point us watching Smile

I will jump into the camp as well if you take Castle out? Do not want to suffer the wrath of MNHQ.

Inverdale and Saatchi need locking up together.

Huge crisis in this house - have organised DS's party for this afternoon (only time we could do due to school dumping something on us). Feeling really guilty about the ten families who will have their viewing ruined at pick up time. What do I do - record it and hide from people/TV/internet/the world etc until I have a chance to watch it, or borrow DH's tablet and use i-pod to listen. It won't be as good not watching live, will it?

Is there anything I could do to delay the start do you think? - of the tennis, I mean. Does anyone know anyone influential at Wimbledon who could pull a few strings and delay for just an hour or two? Grin

Seize see above - could you have a word with Boris? He may be able to help.

sieze- they're practically grown up together since juniors- and at one time played doubles, so I'm hoping that their genuine admiration for each other will rub off on the crowd- and it's pot luck when you apply for tickets, as to who you will see (though if you go with seedings, this was the obvious final).

Murray might not have it all his own way therefore,(support wise) as he did against Jerzy. And we saw what happened when the chips were down against Verdasco.

And I agree that if he wins it, they will be able to shut up about this 70-odd years since a Brit won stuff, and just enjoy the game. Apart from the next goal- which will be the Aussie, I guess. he's no chance of ever winning the French

seize what McEnroe said was that it was good to see someone win who was a natural tennis player rather than a brilliant all-round athlete. Which if Inverdale hadn't also made his horrid comments would have been fine!

Well, thank God for that ali cause I have a slight crush on him and at the time, when I heard what he said (clearly heard wrongly!) I was a bit miffed. Now I can carry on crushing on him - don't tell Boris Smile
