I don't know if Raahh is around to start a new thread and I couldn't post on the last one because it's full! Hope you all find this!

May I join in, please? Smile

I've come in partway through del Potro-Paire and want del Potro to win so I don't know the story behind all the drama the commentators are talking about. Is that to do with the enormous bandages on Paire's leg?

Raahh · 07/07/2018 13:53

Pressure might be getting to Alex a little bit.

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 13:53

Yes 5000 DelPotro bashed his leg up Shock just joking!! Welcome.

5000 Paire has had knee surgeries, I think, I don't think he is injured as such at the moment. It's more for support. Might be wrong.

Hello, btw Grin

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 13:56

I will go over for a look when Rafa wraps up this set.

OP posts:
Raahh · 07/07/2018 13:57

I think Paire has had issues with a number of line calls, and has been getting a bit stroppy. He's been chewing the ear of the umpire. The commentary team think his own team should just walk off and leave him to get on with it. Delpo was getting fed up with himself too.

The heat is getting to people, and I think, someone in the crowd.

I am trying to keep taps on about 5 matches at once Grin
Vamos first set Rafa. Marvellous.

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 13:58

Raahh · 07/07/2018 13:59

Halep took her first set, so that's ok.

Raahh · 07/07/2018 14:00

I am not giving up my tv for an hour of waffle.

Evenif dh seems to think otherwise. Grin

kazzaD66 · 07/07/2018 14:03

Yes Raahh I was on Centre Court for that Edberg / Woodbridge match. Don't know what he looks like now, but Todd has always looked about 15 years oldGrin

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 14:04

I will vanish my boys to the kitchen.

Thanks for the replies! I'm definitely getting the vibe that Paire's something of a drama queen....

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 14:06

Oh Paire has hurt his hand now.

OP posts:
Raahh · 07/07/2018 14:06

Kazza he has darker hair- not the blonde 18 year old he was. Grin.

Oh, over in the Delpo match, Paire has hurt his hand. It's a bit like a footballer taking a dive- no-one seems to be taking him seriously Grin

Raahh · 07/07/2018 14:08

Delpo is through. And they have shaken hands, and all seems fine between everyone Grin

ferrier · 07/07/2018 14:11

Paire was cross that Carlos (Bernardes not Ramos) didn't overrule some dodgy line calls. Paire challenged them and they were indeed dodgy so he won the points. DelPotro as far as I can tell is just getting grumpy at Paire's antics. Paire was asking if the umpire can be changed or fined!

PrivateParkin · 07/07/2018 14:14

Hi all - somehow a "quick trip" to the library and for barbecue stuff turned into a two hour expedition Hmm so I haven't seen any tennis today. Unacceptable!!

Paire has had those bandages all tournament I think. He's like a mummy.

ferrier · 07/07/2018 14:16

I'm Stefan's no.1 fan Grin and also a big fan of McEnroe (playing style not on court behaviour). And obviously Federer and also Timmy. I like the artists of the game. The same with any sport really. Artistry and tactics over brawn.

DramaAlpaca · 07/07/2018 14:17

Found you!

I'm being pulled in all directions today. I was switching between Rafa & Delpo & there's football coming up, then I've got stage one of the Tour de France recorded... So I think I'll be glued to the telly all day Grin
