Wimbledon chat: popcorn matches (and no salt)

[PrivateIsles]

Welcome one and all

Anderson not doing so well- we know he can come back from things like this (and has been injured lately), but I'm not sure he will get through this match.

Raonic is now my 'can he knock out Djok' hope in this half (if they meet in the semi).

Of course, I can still hope someone beats Djok in the meantime. Would be an outside bet- but you never know. Felix AA could have one of the best matches of his career so far, if they meet(happened for Tsitspias in Melbourne against Fed).

Love it.

Well done Benoit

Raahh

I hate the cameras on Geri halliwell and others who probably don't know an awful lot about tennis , but who get invites cos they are famous. So unfair to true ( non celeb ) fans.
Pella is storming through this match.
His quite nice looking ( shallow)
Must be boiling down there.

I lost count of how often they show Geri.

And mentioned the Spice Girls. John Lloyd, I have learnt, is not really a fan. (why would he be?!)

I really needed to know that

Poor Kev, I do like Kev. But he's had a run of back luck lately, and I think the fact he was seeded so highly did him no favours (opposite to Rafa) as everyone will question the validity of the Wimbledon formula.

But well done Pella (who is lovely looking , yes).

How could John Lloyd not like 'Stop! 'One of the best pop songs of the 90s and I'm not a fan of them either! Lol
I don't mind John commentating : anyone but Andrew ( can I crawl around you ) Castle
Pella through!

Pella can be our Delpo /Argentinian substitute in this half of the draw. Diego can be him in the other .

well, had 5 minutes sit down and saw the tie break - Pella and Anderson - what have I missed , those last two points were so good!
Need to go and read the thread back now ...

John is ok, until he starts going on about certain players being box office, when they aren't

He seems to have the requisite ' lovely willowy blond thin girlfriend '
( not jealous at all 😀)
He seems very nice.

Ahh, now I forgot he plays Raonic next .

Sorry Guido! You are lovely, but I have to go with Milos for that .
But the way both played today, it should be a great match.

Ooh I like Hubert. Come on Hubert!!! (Early days but let’s all wish him well).
(Playing the Cock)

I am watching Medvedev and Goffin. Beautifully calm match, no histrionics, no ranting at the umpire, no spitting, no underarm serves...

I'm afraid Murray (not that one, AC, don't panic) is out. I wonder how he feels about Andy getting further than him at Queens and now here? When doubles is his thing and always has been?

He's started well, Adelie.

Yes, let's hope the nice polish player ' polishes him off' ! Is he any good?

I have an irrational dislike of Djokovic ; not sure why really? He just winds me up.
Be nice to see others doing well this year.
It's Tim commentating? He seems better at it than he used to.

Just got in and Djok is on - not sure if I can be bothered to watch him. I think there’s something about him TheOnly that make him hard to warm to and the sad thing is that he’s so desperate to be loved by everyone.

I can’t bear to watch when he does the heart thing at the end of his matches - that’s one thing that me and Kyrgios are in agreement with (probably the only thing!)

Shame about Kevin going out but didn’t really expect much from him this year.

Both roger and Rafa on centre court tomorrow - would love to be there (I’m sure I like tennis more than Geri Halliwell!)

Come on Hubert whoever you are!

Sorry that should have been The80s - it’s been a long day

Tim stop banging on.

Mac is never on the fence Andrew.

Hubert will be destroyed no doubt. I'll be cheering him on.

I love Mac shutting Inverdale down.

Oh John not Andrew. I've got commentator fatigue.

Great shot!
