TENNIS FANS! New thread -With bouncier balls and clean towels...

[Raahh]

New thread for tennis fans, with or without the ability to watch on tv. Or even live and in person



(When should we start pestering for our back?)

[MrsVamos]

Oi oi, saveloy !

Rafa belongs to meeee !

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Djok wins. :)

[Raahh]

yay!! Murray lost. No. i mean - yay! Djok won.

You know what I mean

Hello MrsV

[MrsVamos]

Ewwww.

Silky hands is something I imagine George Osbourne or Dickhead Cameron having.

I am shuddering and have a cats bum mouth at the very idea. Urgh.

Hello, my gawgus Raahh. Mwah.

on mobile so alopogies for crap writing.

[MrsVamos]

Sod this for a laugh.

Gimme 5 mins and I'll be back.

[HarveySchlumpfenburger]

thinking about Osbourne and Cameron and silky hands. And that is not an envy emoticon.

Yes, Raahh we know what you actually mean .

[MrsVamos]

Nooo, Rafa.

Is a BLEURGH emoticon. We need a sicky one.

I am on faithful ol laptop now, so I can type nonsense properly.

Did I see that Murray lost ? Didn't really expect him to win, did we ?

[Raahh]

I'm knew you would be thinking the same.

Now, the way is clear for world domination for Rafa. or at least the Miami title.

[HarveySchlumpfenburger]

Yes lost 7-5, 6-3. He was never going to win that match.

The brilliantly named Jack Sock has won in the doubles though.

[Raahh]

The Brilliantly Named Jack Sock- if i ever buy a show dog, or a race horse, that will be his name

[MrsVamos]

Shame.

What a fab name.

Not sure Rafa can do world ? But def. RG again. VAMOS

I luffs him to pieces, you know I do, and would love it if he would prove me wrong. Think RG and Wimby could be very tense this year.

He's my mate, so I'll always back him.

[MrsVamos]

Jack Sack would have been better. [grins]

[MrsVamos]

Shite, shows how long I've been away.

[HarveySchlumpfenburger]

[HarveySchlumpfenburger]

Worth a try. We will get it back. Or there will be trouble.

[MrsVamos]

BALLS.

Please.

Shall I do a thread in SS ?

[Raahh]

I really hope Rafa can defend all the stuff he needs to do this this year (which is obviously quite a lot). Another title at RG would be great. Another Wimbledon title would be fantastic- I do think it is in him, he just needs to believe . So long as I don't have to sit through a semi final like the RG semi- which was painful. I did feel sorry for Ferrer in the final though. I love Ferrer. he's like a little terrier after a bone.

And I have my new best friend Dogbollocks, to support too. Which is nice.

[Raahh]

You can try, MrsV- people got quite nasty when we got it back for The US open though.

But we have cake, and a bloody pom bear ffs. And we have talked tennis drivel on these threads for ages.

We have earned our balls, dammit.

[MrsVamos]

I think as long as he is well and feels, and believes like you say, my lovely, he can do it. All.

Ferrer never stood a chance. I felt sorry for him too, he's a brilliant player, come good 5 years too late really.

I am watching DB and Stan with interest. And a couple of the younger pups.

I do wonder who will fill Roger and Rafa's gap when the time comes.

We have been spoiled. Even though Rafa looks like a capybara facially, he is a dream to watch playing, same as Roger.

[magimedi]

YES - thread in SS asking for balls!

[Raahh]

And it is also quite useful, instead of typing 'bollocks' to have the balls back.

[MrsVamos]

People got nasty ? WTF ? Life is too short.

Was there a suitable emoticon for the Winter Plympics ?

I want BALLS

[MrsVamos]

OK. I'll do a thread. Give me a minute.

[Raahh]

I am backing Roger to have a good year. Because my husband Stefan is a good influence.

I think we are in for a good year- but possibly the last where the well know 'big four' will dominate.

[Raahh]

No-one bothered asking for an Olympics emoticon. Footy fans, golf fans and others said it wasn't fair. that we had a tennis one. Not that they had ever asked for a ball. We asked for YEARS . Of course, once Murray lost it in the US, it went pfft
