The OFFICIAL Wimbledon 2008 Thread

[Mendoza]

May as well start one as the 2 weeks when Brits pretend they can play Tennis begins.

For once it is starting in sunshine, and may not include a shithouse Cliff Richard a capella remix of Summer Holiday.

Anyways the Mens and Womens favourits take Centre Court stage today.

though i have bet on 2 outsiders each way (semi final or better) in Djokovic and Kirilenko


looking forward to seeing Harkleroad taking on the only man in the womens draw too

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Is Murray out yet?

 

[Box of Frogs]

Is it raining yet?

Can you please tell me exactly what times Ms Ivanovic and Ms Kirilenko are playing, thank you.

I am great admirers of their games, and would hate to miss them.

Unfortunatly they could both be playing at the same time, the lovely Ana will be on TV though but lovely Maria is on a distant court 18 although they will have a hours start on the show courts

If they show Kirinlenko, probably best to catch her when we can - her Wimbledon record is one win in 4 years!

Ivanovic, we can watch later.

Surely Kirilenko will be on interactive? Court 18 is a show-court, and I'm pretty sure they televise all matches from the show courts on the BBCi service.

So what time is Kirilenko's match?

 

[Simster]

I'll be supporting our British HERO, Andy Murray, all the way through until next Monday, at which point he will lose easily, revert to being a curly SCOTCH muppet, the media will tell us over and over again about how he really is about to deliver and all the SCOTCH gimps on NSC will bang on about what a hero he is, when the reality is that he isn't fit to scratch Henman's arse.

So what time is Kirilenko's match?

It's second on Court 18, after Ferrero's match. So it could be any time early afternoon, really.

The schedule can be found here.

Much obliged. I shall pop home at lunch time and have a little look.

Is Murray out yet?

Nope but he has got his reason for quitting/defeat lined up...bad thumb this time

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Dont forget.

Murray is Brittish when he's winning.
+
Scottish when he's losing.

[Marshy]

Jamie Murray exchnges this

For this...what a tosser

 

[Trigger]

Can't wait til Andy Murray LOSES, on the other hand I hope Jamie Murray, you know, the one with a personality does REALLY well...

And may I also say CUM ON KIRILENKO!

I f***ing love Wimbledon fortnight....

Camping overnight for tickets, loads of Union Jack flags, Murray-Mania on Henman Hill, John Lloyd and Sue Barker expertly guiding us through all of the action. It's a great British sporting institution and I'll be glued to my box for the next fortnight.
