And be bribed a shit load of money to do it.

Can't see that happening

I didn't see it due to bring the Australian open, but Murray beating berrettini is pretty impressive

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Wed Jan 18, 2023 6:05 pm

Nadal has finally snapped himself completely, I suspect. If this means Djokovic ends up with the most slams there will be absolute hell to pay.

Post by **dng** » Thu Jan 19, 2023 4:56 pm

Murray still playing at four in the morning. What the hell is wrong with the Australian open?

Post by **vom** » Thu Jan 19, 2023 5:02 pm

that's pretty ridiculous

Post by **dng** » Thu Jan 19, 2023 5:45 pm

I assume they're both actually dead now

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Sun Jun 11, 2023 9:32 pm

PISSSSSSSS

That is all.

Well, I bet this goes well for everyone involved

I wonder what Saudi Arabia's plan is once they own all of sport entirely

Every single event held in front of crowds of seventeen people in the middle of the night for vaguely enthusiastic pay per view audiences numbering in their thousands (worldwide)

everyone, dead in the sun

I once had the pleasure of meeting Saudi Arabia at a charity event, and the country was surprisingly down to earth and VERY funny.

the bbc's tennis coverage seems to have decided to show about half the points from a pointlessly low camera at the back of the court so you can't even see past the net this year. utter shite

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Fri Jul 07, 2023 5:15 pm

It is the Revenge of Boris camera.

wimbledon on a sunday? shite

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 15, 2023 2:49 pm

well that was a slightly saddening final

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 15, 2023 2:49 pm

poor jabeur

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 15, 2023 3:20 pm

I've barely seen any wimbledon this year for some reason but I watched most of the second set, Vondroušová was very good

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 15, 2023 3:52 pm

She was. It was just a bit sad that both sets Jabeur went utterly to pieces half way through

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 15, 2023 4:09 pm

ves

if I was her coach I would have strongly advised against that

That's a double backhand-ed compliment!!!!1111

Post by **dng** » Sun Jul 16, 2023 2:29 pm

Why is Djokovic such a relentless prick anyway

Post by **dng** » Sun Jul 16, 2023 2:30 pm

And what will it take for andrew bloody castle to notice

Post by **dng** » Sun Jul 16, 2023 4:03 pm

I know Djokovic has always been slow between points but today its like he’s finally achieved his ultimate form and evolved into EBDON

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Jul 16, 2023 7:22 pm

Oh bugger. :'(

Not Alcaraz's victory, but that I didn't see it, because I couldn't bear to watch Djokovic win. Congrats to Alcaraz and all those who are made of the right stuff, and saw it through to the end! Hurray!

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Sun Jul 16, 2023 8:40 pm

Hooray, piss on Djokovic forever.

That was unexpectedly one-sided

Lovely alcaraz

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Sun Jul 14, 2024 6:23 pm

Djokovic's lateral movement looked off - not clearly injured, but he was just slow. His only hope was to dictate play from the baseline, and work his way into the match, and he simply couldn't, because Alcaraz totally dominated from the beginning.

Post by **dng** » Sun Jul 14, 2024 6:36 pm

He looked like nadal did at Wimbledon in his later years, where he can't turn anymore cause his knees are fucked

Post by **blombluss** » Mon Jul 29, 2024 8:43 pm

I watched the highlights of the Murray/Evans doubles win - wowzers!

Post by **Pual** » Thu Aug 01, 2024 8:13 pm

Poor dead Andy Murray.

Post by **dng** » Thu Aug 01, 2024 11:22 pm

wimbledon will now be cancelled

I liked his comment on TwitterX

"Never even liked tennis anyway."

Post by **dng** » Fri Aug 02, 2024 3:56 pm

He just really liked shouting at his coaches

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Aug 02, 2024 6:35 pm

I like shouting at coaches and accusing them of crimes. Especially the double decker ones.

My brothers lent me his sky login so I can watch the tennis. It might be the most attritional match I’ve ever seen, everyone knackered and sweating and ill, drapers been throwing up all the time all over the court, now sinners broken his wrist or something

Post by **dng** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 9:24 pm

It’s making me feel a bit nauseous and very very tired
