WIMBLEDON 1988- Men's Singles Final- It's Edberg v Becker...

[Raahh]

in the coaches box...

So Federer V Djokovic, 2014.

Gutted it isn't Nadal, or Grigor. Glad it isn't Murray, we might get more balanced commentary.

I think Federer may have it- and will be able to play a better game than against the big serving Raonic.

But Djok is hurting from the number of GS losses
He has only played Fed on grass once. At Wimbledon. He lost.
If the roof goes on, Fed is better indoors too.

I want a 5 set thriller, because I don't care who wins really. I am refusing to move form the sofa. My children will go to school Monday wearing pyjamas, and with a bag of crisps for lunch.

I am sticking with Virgin Pimms (a.k.a Peppermint tea)

MrsV- Murray's no threat.

Hearts

What are you on, darling ?

Give me some !

Come on Roger!

Yay! (might change my flag until Tuesday)

Provencal, you were there! How awesome. What was it like? The closest I have come is the Queens tournament the week before...

Sue the bearer of good news for a change.

I know that, Raahh I was being polite !

Can someone take my dcs please.

They WILL NOT BE QUIET.

Novak just seems so fragile out there.

Oh classy !

MrsV

Great shot from Roger. And break point!

COME ON ROGER !

Fantastic shots by Roger.

Djok will be even more crushed, having had Championship point and lost it.

That line judge will never work again

I've been lucky enough to go a couple of times. I won tickets in the ballot this year for Court 2 on the first Thursday. So we saw Nick Kyrgios's awesome match vs Gasquet. We also watched some of Jack Sock in the doubles. It's a fab place. Even having a ground pass is enough to watch some great tennis.

I live v close to Wimbledon. I'm in the next town, a mile and a half away. Lots of my friends pick up their kids after school and go and queue for leavers' tickets. My DCs are still a bit young to do that but we will do in a couple of years.

But not that one.

Although he is still in it.

How many deuces have there been in this match eh.

I think djokovic could well still win....

I've locked them in the garden. I'm not letting them in until it's over. I've also told DH he will not be fed until then.

They need their tea now

The players I mean

I think Djok could too Miranda.

Raahh

Just had a thought, from the thread the other day when we weren't so 'objective'....

Novak has had to make it look like a match, hasn't he ?

Perfect weather for the Wimbledon final too.

DS has asked if he can play a noisy game now after every point for the last three games. Groan.
