Cheek of him. That's Dan's title.

I've got some brownie points with MIL for reminding her Queens is on. She was not happy with RG not being on ITV this year.

Fizzy it's Queen's -shoe horning talk of players who aren't playing (bonus if they are Brits) is what they do. And I think they are contractually obliged to mention Andy every day Grin. It's not his fault , it's the media. But it gets on my nerves as much as them fawning over Djok.

Jane- of course it's Dan's title- he's the Brummie Borg- big on clay and grass. Grin
Casper is having a slow start.
Even John has never heard of seen Ryan Penistone play before.

Raahh · 14/06/2022 13:32

Iirc, Casper lost to Tache Man at Wimbledon last year- in a 5 set first round match. Grass is not really his thing. He has joked earlier it was 'for golfers'

Raahh · 14/06/2022 13:33

Andrew just mentioned the golf thing Grin

Raahh · 14/06/2022 13:35

Ryan makes a strange noise when he serves. I thought it was my ds shouting 'Hello' from upstairs- I have replied - twice Grin

JaneJeffer · 14/06/2022 13:35

Ryan was in the Battle of the Brits thing during Covid times. Tut tut John.

Unconvincing is a polite way of saying shite isn't it? Grin

Aww that was nice of Ryan.

Yesterday, at one point, Peter Fleming seemed to have no clue who Cilic was, how many times he had played Queen's, or the fact he had won it- twice.

I think all the commentators are taking it in turns to be Andrew Castle.

JaneJeffer · 14/06/2022 13:40

I think Peter doesn't know where he is or care less a lot of the time Grin

Raahh · 14/06/2022 13:40

Jane no, 'unconvincing' is not great is it ?

Raahh · 14/06/2022 13:44

Jane Peter really only came to rant about Wimbledon and ranking points. Oh- and Iraq, apparently. Grin

Ryan has stopped making the noise now.

Maybe it was DS??Confused

I might watch Doctors - I'm starting to hear things. Grin

Hbh17 · 14/06/2022 13:47

For anyone - like me - who can't bear the BBC commentators at Queen's, you can listen to Nick Lester & Tim Henman on Prime. They are so much better!

JaneJeffer · 14/06/2022 13:55

I don't mind these two @Hbh17 they have easy voices to listen to. Good to have the choice though.

OP posts:
Raahh · 14/06/2022 14:16

I'm back Grin

Hbh I actually really like Andrew Cotter (and his dogs)- but as soon as they wheel out Andrew Castle, I might swich to Prime Grin

JaneJeffer · 14/06/2022 15:37

Well done Ryan.

OP posts:
Raahh · 14/06/2022 17:21

I missed the end of the Ruud match, was at a school meeting. I'm not sure Casper was expecting too much this week really. A great result for Ryan - and will go someway to bumping up his ranking- from 180, to 150 something, so that's good.

Just catching the end (maybe) of the Matteo/Evans match.

JaneJeffer · 14/06/2022 17:32

Aww Dan

Does AC know anything about tennis at all? Confused

well done Matteo - still as handsome

Fizzywinegum · 14/06/2022 17:43

Oh I’d forgotten about Stan playing - I was going to put the tea on - never mind!
