    Wimbledon 2017

    Thread to talk about this year's Championships. With a polite request that people who do not like the sport **** off out of here and don't waste everyone's time by posting on here saying how they hate tennis/Andy Murray/grass/life/Robinson's fruit barley.

    Andy Murray becomes world number one

    Andy Murray becomes world number one after Raonic withdraws from Paris Masters. A quiet way to get there I suppose, but they all count. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/37882467

    Retires from athletics. So that's the first entrant of Strictly 2017 wrapped up then. :smile:

  5. Doping

    The Sunday Times are going front page with a doping scandal story that implicates PL stars, tennis players, boxers, crickers and cyclists. https://twitter.com/richard_conway/status/716371675286282241 It doesn't sound good, but also the Doctor involved doesn't have the cleanest of records himself.

    Davis Cup 2016

    Off to a good start this weekend. Well done the team. I couldn't watch the last two sets of the match yesterday because I took my son to his tennis lesson, and then had one myself straight after, but from what I could see (the match was on in the club house) Murray looked out of it in the fourth...

    ECL Wildcards

    So the president of Barcalona wants top clubs who fail to qualify for the Champions' League to be given wildcards like in tennis: BBC What an idiot. Apart from the obvious: that this is moving further and further away from a Champions' League, he seems to have completely missed the point of...

  8. Ref Watch ..... Millwall H JPT

    As we try to preserve our 100% record in all cup competitions against Millwall, the man in charge of tomorrow's match needs little introduction. It will be Simon Hooper from Swindon refereeing Southend for the seventh time in his 8th season as a League referee. On Swindon’s books as a junior he...

    Davis Cup Final

    Elements of GB's run have been covered in the Wimbledon thread but now Andy Murray is on the verge of almost single handedly winning the competition, I guess it deserves its own one. Apologies for those who won't read The Daily Mail, but Martin Samuel does a good job here of summing up why...

  10. Ref Watch ..... Peterborough (H)

    The man in charge of tomorrow's early kick off will be Simon Hooper from Swindon refereeing Southend for the sixth time in his 8th season as a League referee. On Swindon’s books as a junior he was released at the age of 16 and turned his attentions towards refereeing. He also represented...

  12. Braintree Friendly

    If anyone is going to this game best you arrive early as parking could be an issue. Apparently a group of gypsies have parked up in Braintree's overflow carpark as well as parking on the near by tennis club.

    Best Swearing.

    What is the best bit of swearing you have heard. For me it was when a mate, apoplectic with rage was ejected by the proprietor of the archery/sports shop near Priory park for having the nerve to touch a tennis racket. "That ****, he's a ****ing ****"
