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

in the coaches box...Grin

So Federer V Djokovic, 2014.

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

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)BrewWine

Nooooooo! Come on Djokovic!

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 06/07/2014 15:04

Tim nearly said Djoke-avitch then. It must be catching.

BillnTedsMostFeministAdventure · 06/07/2014 15:05

Amazing. First set 3 mins shorter than yesterday's whole final!

MrsVamos · 06/07/2014 15:06

I think Roger is going to do this in 3 !

Would like it to last longer.

Novak will be feeling crap. My heart does go out to players on Finals day.

We have got to sort ourselves and our Wimbledon wishes/dreams out.

I would love a gaggle of us to go !

COME ON ROGER !

I have been relegated to watching on my bf's computer as his DS and friends got here first and have commandeered the television for F1 Grin. Bf has now fallen asleep on me :)

Went to see the start of the Tour de France in York thus morning so a nice sporty day for me :)

ElephantsNeverForgive · 06/07/2014 15:09

And Djok prays to the Good of tennis only to fetch up on the deck.

Provencalroseparadox · 06/07/2014 15:09

When the DCs are a bit older I'm going to take them to camp in the park.

Lots of friends go and queue after school but my DD needs to be a bit older before I'm prepared to do it with her.

It does help being walking distance away.

After my ballot success this time I'm definitely doing it again.

Raahh · 06/07/2014 15:13

The trainer?

Oh no Sad

You lucky thing, being walking distance !

I think I shall have to enter ballot again, and make a decision that if no luck, I'll take a chance and camp. I'd adore to see Rafa but think I might stand more chance at RG !

I might try to go to the Tour Finals in November.

Looks like Novak hurt his knee ?

Hate to see players losing through injury. Sad

MrsVamos · 06/07/2014 15:15

Raahh Grin

Right, dilettante that I am, I am only joining you now. Why are we sticking up for Roger again? I mean I want to, but I'm not sure I can get over the headband.

Wimbledon glory days for me were the eighties- I remember watching the final when Boris Becker was only 17 and looked like a Weasley brother.

Provencalroseparadox · 06/07/2014 15:17

Broken!

MrsVamos · 06/07/2014 15:17

Poor ball boy.

Having a dig at Tim...Grin

I think its Novaks ankle not knee ?

Needs new heeleys. Wink

More for old times sake than anything, BOFster. Smile

For me, anyway.

Raahh · 06/07/2014 15:18

Roger trying to keep attention on himself by changing his shirt.

But he's no RafaGrin

I've just come out of an 18 month stint at Barclays. Annoyed at myself that I never took opportunity to get pre- sale tix. Lots of friends still there so maybe I can get someone to get some for me. Not sure what the rules are

BBMs · 06/07/2014 15:19

Woohoo! Come on Novak! :D

MrsVamos · 06/07/2014 15:19

In my head the head band is a nod to Rafa. Grin

I know its not...

BOFster · 06/07/2014 15:19

Does anybody water that grass? It looks awful.
