Tennis thread: Wimbledon chat this way!

[PrivateIsles]

Happy Wimbledon Eve* everyone!

With thanks to magi*

I see Thompson has won the second set

Ooh, come on Jordan- get into his head!

And now Dick has the trainer on court for a leg injury

Pfft. That's just messing again. Annabel would not be pleased. (unless she is one of the many fanclub members the Beeb employ).

And I hate how he carries his towel in his mouth, like a dog.

Poor Chicken

Come on Thompson - wow that is quite a moustache!

It is definitely a statement, the moustache.

Thiem /Querrey has started. I don't know how this will go. In theory , Sam is far more experienced on grass. Might be a long match.

He's only a year older than Nick, Jordan. He seems a lot older. That could just be the tache- or the fact Kyrgios just acts like a child.

Stop going on about the moustache!!
I want to see it and can't. Every time the BBC do an update around the courts, they only show Dick

Not sure if this will work.

it's not the best picture of him. His tache today seems bushier.

He used to have a beard, made the tache less obvious.

So, what was the injury thing about then? I've just turned over, and Dick doesn't seem injured.

Wow- there is a man in the crowd, with a fabulous beard! He looks like a rotund Aussie ZZ top member.

His tache is a bit Village People

He’s also wearing dark pants - they must have changed the rules as I remember some players having to change their pants as they were visible through their shorts.

Have you got a blue button on your red button kazza? That can give you a choice of matches but doesn’t always work.

Thanks Raahh (I think )
If he's not careful, it's verging on Seventies porn star meets serial killer

Will see if I can find the blue button fizzy

Although, at the moment Dan Evans is serving for the match. C'mon Dan!

kazza that might be the very look he is going for .

Well done Dan!

Kept his cool

Just think Ned Flanders kazza

And well done Harriet Dart!

Ned Flanders

Damn. Looks like Nick is serving for the 3rd set.

Keith is through fairly easily.

Poor Chicken.

I've managed to tune in my red buttons. Sky Ireland don't have them any more so it has to be done manually. Thank goodness for the lovely people who put the frequencies on line.

Found the blue button

The options are.......
Kerber (already on BBC2)
Barty (already on red button)

So, what is the point of the blue button?

Thiem narrowly won his first set, it was close and took a while though.

It's one of the only things I like about Virgin tivo, is the fact most of the red button is available as proper channels- so no messing about. I hate the red button. It just never seems to work.

I’m on the BBC red button and it then has a blue menu where you can watch most of the courts.

Come on Ned Flanders

Yes fizzy I was on the red button, then did the blue button option and only got the two matches already being shown. Maybe I well, DH this evening need to retune?
