Tennis Thread: the grass court season is here! Who will rule Birmingham? Be the King of Queen's? All your Wimbledon build-up chat this way!...

[PrivateIsles]

Best few weeks of the year starts here!

I'm still keeping the sound off.

Grrr.

Ups guy has the first set.

Oh dear, right, come on David. Win a set.

Looks like David has run out of steam.

Well so much for that!

I didn't have the commentary on, but I imagine much was made of it being the 10th title.

Which isn't 11.

And certainly not 12 .

Ooh restaurant talk. How... fascinating

I get scared when they slide on grass. Too many injuries these days.

Really, AC, you are meant to be commentating on the singles match? and not harping on about the doubles?

The important match?

Will you fuck off AC??

I'm beginning to dread Wimbledon to be honest, if this is how the commentary is going to go.

'Never mind this boring match everyone- Murray is playing doubles later'

oh dear- that was a shame. Very unlucky, Simon.

AC has also managed to mention Schwartzman’s size even though he’s not played for days - concentrate on the match that’s being played!

It's never about the A game, AC?

Just aswell, since you never had one.

Fizzy

I wrote a lengthy post about that- and deleted it, because my blood pressure is rising .
AC is just rude.

Kazza no, no A,B, or C game.

It's why he is reduced to annoying us with being disparaging about players who could wipe the floor with him with their Z game.

Absolutely Raahh

One of the many reasons I can't stand him I know this may surprise some of you, as I don't like to bang on about it

Hadn’t realised kazza

You've never said, kazza. Maybe you should tell us how you feel some time. .

I don't like to be too vocal

Fantastic rally!

I have to confess my thoughts and then run away and never speak to any of you again - the thought of Lopez making those noises for the whole of the afternoon (this match and then the important one ) is doing funny things to me.

Sue VOICE OF DOOM

what does she want?

TheOnly

Eh? They'll move tennis over to BBC 2 at 4pm? What will they do with the women's football then? I was so looking forward to watching it

If this goes on much longer, I will probably miss the end. I would like Gilles to get a set though, make a match of it.

Doubtless, that is not what everyone at the Beeb wants, as you know, the 'important match' is coming up, and Feli might be worn out by then.
