I wish Robbie was on commentary

Raahh · 13/09/2026 19:32

BALL BOUNCING!

Me too.

IceandIndigo · 13/09/2026 19:33

I’ve got Robbie!

Brad’s looking cool

IceandIndigo · 13/09/2026 19:38

It’s Robbie, Jim and Mary.

That is not fair.

I don’t think I’d be able to sit up in those high seats

Had the same thought

JaneJeffer · 13/09/2026 19:56

Is Sascha’s shoulder bothering him a bit?

IceandIndigo · 13/09/2026 19:57

I’ve already had at least 4 mentions of Sasha’s height

Would you be able to see anything properly. ? I don't think I would.

It feels like being at a gig and having to watch the artist on a screen.

I think Arthur Ashe stadium is just too big. Tennis should feel more intimate.

Raahh · 13/09/2026 20:05

I am trying to care about this final, but my interest is waning

At least my screams would be drowned out by all the noise

I agree- Centre Court and PC are actually pretty big- but they feel different.

Or maybe I'm just biased against the US Open Grin.

We’ve got bad bingo commentators but they did mention the bouncing

I am watching the tennis on silent as DH is watching something else on TV.

Sounds like I’m not missing much!

As I don't have Sky, I'm watching Simple Minds in Stirling on iplayer. I luffs Simple Minds and have seen them a few times live, so I'm a happy bunny Grin
