Lewis Hamilton turned away from Wimbledon.

[beorhthelm]

Trevor McDonald is to all intents and purposes white.
He would be described by a black person as a coconut.
Brown on the outside.White on the inside.
He is part of the establishment and a very wealthy man.
He is also getting on a bit and hardly likely to rock the boat.
Hamilton is young,black and feisty.A different animal completely.

Hamilton is a racing car driver for Mercedes and previously Mclaren. this is hardly anti-establishment and certainly not short of a few bob. i would describe you way you are carrying on about this as being something with three letters short of coconut.

Guerrero would probably suggest this posting is racist too, although I'm guessing you mean coo and not cut? Faux racism. What a load of bollocks. Just when you think Hamilton's not such a dick after all he does this.

 

[desprateseagull]

Tie or no tie, that shirt is fecking AWFUL.

 

[Kosmonaut]

Just to be clear here - your theory here, is that Lewis Hamilton was extended an invitation to attend Wimbledon, in the Royal Box, just so they could deny him entry, because they don't want his kind in there?

Wouldnt it have been less trouble, to just not invite him?

The man works in mysterious ways, maan!

 

[burnee54]

No way could LH wear a tie!
How could you get one that goes with that shirt?

 

[mona]

Dave Spart is alive and well and living in Alicante and blissfully unaware of the history of matamoros y matajudios.
Right on!

 

[Megazone]

Why couldn't he have used his belt as a make shift tie?

The man's attitude stinks.

 

[Ex-Staffs Gull]

Brits are so good at being told what to do that most have turned into sheep.
Grow a backbone Britain.
Start going against the grain.
Stop marching blindly to the tune of the rich just because they throw you a bone now and again.
You are a laughing stock!

Dont they have dress rules in other countries. I have had to wear shirt and tie in China, USSR, Australia, Germany and the US. Thinking there is an agenda here.

 

[DavePage]

So he turned away bit did he indicate?

 

[Greyrun]

Was offered a shirt and tie but declined.

Wouldn't happen in Benidorm

 

[wellquickwoody]

Yep you are.
You'll be cheering him to beat the krauts in a couple of weeks.
He's earned the right to wear what he wants,when he wants.

Possibly the greatest performing British sportsperson at the present time.

Could it be because he is black?

Yeah, I will cheer him on when he is racing.

Most successful British sportsperson right now? Yeah.

But when he knowingly tries to break the rules he makes himself look stupid, bit like you with the racist comment.

You are very funny, in a sympathetic sort of way, can we keep you as an example to others?

 

[Icy Gull]

I'm am a big Hamilton fan, when he is in a car. This smacks of trying to be a rebel and the only loser is him. He'll grow up eventually

 

[el punal]

I bet if he was a female wearing a skirt halfway up her arse it would have been different.

I suggest that you write to the LTA, they might let you in wearing a thong for next year's tournament.

 

[el punal]

Why would anyone want to wear a suit to a sporting event!? Is it not really wierd people pay to do this?

Come again?

 

[Icy Gull]

Was his ticket for the Royal Box? No brainer that he has to wear a tie. He could have set with plebs if he didn't want to wear the tie.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Ask those in 1901.

 

[BensGrandad]

Wonder if he got his ticket on the public ballot applied for in December.

 

[Frutos]

Do they do Royal Box tickets in a public ballot, then?
