Pleased for Angie! She's great.

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:02

Did Sue Voice of Doom put Andy on the red button? Shock Grin

Cant get very excited about Murray v Isner

Well done Norrie - he seems v excited! They can take Andy off the red button now!

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:02

Wow they put Andy on quickly! I wanted to see Norrie’s interview!

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:04

Norris had a long match.

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:05

Carlos on RB now Andy's been reinstated

Raahh · 29/06/2022 18:07

Alcaraz has started, this might be more straightforward than Struff. I haven't seen Griekspoor play very often, to be honest.
Carlos is wearing one sleeve. I don't know if this is a fashion choice, or an injury.

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:07

I can’t seem to get tennis on the red button Jane - luckily I can get the iplayer although there is sometimes a bit of a delay

I think I’ll watch a bit of Alcaraz now

JuanPotatoTwo · 29/06/2022 18:08

Hello :) Missed all of yesterday and today so far :(. Settling in now though and, unless there’s an earthquake or something, I’m not shifting!

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:08

He's got tape underneath Raahh he took it off after the last match. He's no Serena Grin

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:08

I think Carlos did have an injury Raahh but maybe he likes the one sleeve look Grin

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:09

Nothing would surprise me at this stage Juan Grin

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:12

I saw something about Serena’s tape helping her sinuses so I’m still not sure what they were for - I’m sure one fell off in her match last night though!

I might stick some on DH’s face to stop him from snoring!

JuanPotatoTwo · 29/06/2022 18:14

I have subtitles on for some reason (no idea how I got them on nor how to get them off!) and some of the transcriptions are really funny :)

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:14

Fizzy** I have to go though a whole rigmarole of going into settings, putting in PIN number and going to other channels every time I want to watch it. I noticed today when I was trying to find the other RB channels that the one I have wasn't showing up so I'm lucky I had tuned it in ages ago because otherwise I wouldn't be able to find it now. Sky improvements seem to be in the same league as MN improvements.

Raahh · 29/06/2022 18:15

Grin Thanks, Jane Fizzy- well it's not your bog standard tubi grip is it, Carlos has a fancy nike logoed pressure sleeve doo-da.

Milos used to wear a sleeve- for no apparent reason, didn't he? And Kyrgios at one point.

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:15

I could do with some sinus tape. The pollen count is high today.

Raahh · 29/06/2022 18:19

Juan I watch nearly everything with subtitles ( barky dog, dc who insist on 'talking') and during live things some very random things show up. Grin

JuanPotatoTwo · 29/06/2022 18:19

Whoever is transcribing has just spelt “Kilo” as “Killough”. I’m so entertained by the words I’m missing the shots!

PlanetNormal · 29/06/2022 18:20

Fairly or unfairly, Emma will face criticism now, because losing to an unseeded player in the second round while wearing a load of expensive sponsored jewellery is inviting the tabloids to suggest she currently isn’t getting all her priorities right.

I can well believe it!

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 18:22

She can cry on her bank manager's shoulder @PlanetNormal.

She'll be grand.

I have foolishly taken on some prats on a BBC article on Facebook. Grin

Isner's developed a bit more game since last I watched him so he's a tad more interesting than he used to be.

JuanPotatoTwo · 29/06/2022 18:25

Andy and Isner are racing through the first set.

JuanPotatoTwo · 29/06/2022 18:27

I was just thinking that about Isner @GrouchyKiwi . I haven’t seen him play for a good couple of years now but he seems to have developed a more rounded game.

Fizzywinegum · 29/06/2022 18:30

The subtitles probably make more sense than the commentators Juan!
