Wimbledon Thread 2 More pimms anyone ?

[MrsVamos]

Thread 2 on Day 4.

Loving it !

Think you're right about Mac raahh. And I also agree with you re Sue - I want to shout "just leave us where we are for gods sake, we can find out later".

This has gone from an interesting match to a one sided match.

Or maybe Djok is going to give away the 3rd set as he seems to have developed a habit of doing lately.

No umpires is just ridiculous. I think 'senior moments' is appropriate !

Ah, yes, Raahh but I prefer Sue to them bloomin' 'Bet blah blah blah' ads we had on ITV 4.

I did wonder if Simon would be able to match Novak. Seems not.

And just as I type that he breaks him !

Rafa drop the first sets, Djok drops the 3rd. it's all in their game plan

Its easy for Roger to say he only needs 10 secs when you are romping away with a match.

I shall be complaining when/if he progresses and faces a tougher opponent, and takes longer.

He shouldn't have said it, really.

It must be, Raahh.

Rafa uses the 1st to gauge his opponent, Novak clearly needs a breather in the 3rd !

And as for Rosol complaining, look where it got him !

Clearly the umpire felt differently, rightly or wrongly.

Bit like Monfils, he likes to throw a set every now and then, just to take in the scenery

I think Rosol complained more to try to wind Rafa up.

Think it takes a bit more than that !

Oh, but Monfils is fun to watch !

I don't like Rosol. He is a one match wonder. OK, maybe he's a bit better than that- but he really is going along, living off the memoriesof his one win over Rafa. it's a bit sad really.

Where is Darcis this year, btw?

I agree Monfils is a great showman.

I really don't like him. Got the impression that he isn't popular with other players either, which is very telling.

Darcis ? Didn't even qualify.

Shame.

Tsonga is making sure he isn't back tomorrow, or playing til the lights go off , for once

Its all going Pete Tong for Simon.

Grrrr. Novaks 'stare'.

He does it to open his eyes cos he wears lenses. Ffs.

My thing with the time between points is that it's actually less in grand slams. I realise they're often longer matches, being the best of 5, so time is an issue, but I figure the players could do with the full 25 second for that very reason - ie, that the matches are longer.

Oh, good, I did hear Jo is playing well.

He faces Novak next, I think ? Poor lad.

Completely concur, Juan as do most of the tennis world.

Crazy, huh ?!

No!!

Get up, Novak!

WHY does Novak keep slipping ?

Needs to sort out some better shoes, me thinks.

The grass, (sorry DIRT) will be better suited to Rafa next week.

Goodo.

Ouch. Hope Novak is OK.

Wonder if he has ripped a muscle ?

That's horrible.

I absolutely do not want him to go out due to injury. He may not be my favourite player, but without him, it will be a far less competitive tournament. And the Murray fans will get over excited.

I sympathise re shoulder pain. Poor Djok.

Looks like he's moving it OK.

I hate it when players have to withdraw through injury. Feel so sorry for them.

Where's three- she'd know what to do!
