    You've got to watch those of a certain age, they're dangerous.

    Unfortunately not as funny as you. Though to be fair you don't intend to be.

    Well that's me told.

    You win.

    I'm surprised you have the time to post on here as I imagine you must be busy writing comedy sketches for high brow and edgy BBC 2 panel shows, advising top government officials on how to run their countries and of course your pithy advice and banter with the top 50 CEOs.

    Surprising what you can do if you put your mind to it, Happy.

    Why does it irritate you? Folk who don't usually watch athletics, gymnastics, swimming, weightlifting and all of the other wonderful Olympic contests, suddenly become enthralled when the magic rings appear, and why not? Seems to me you are a tad too defensive of football when it doesn't need your defence, after all, it is a great game, supported by millions of great, sports loving folk, isn't it?

    I think you are probably right, but I had an inkling that the grass might just give Murray the edge and self-belief he needs in his game.

    Why can't we be more like our
    I've always found it makes people a bit too chilled out and relaxed for professional sport.

    Kyle Edmund just lost first set on a tie break (Is he the one from round these parts?)

    He is indeed.

    He started really well, but fell apart towards the end and lost five consecutive points.

    I'm hoping that there will be a bit of focus on the alleged coaching he has been getting from Becker during games, he definitely gets up to a few tricks Djokovic during a match to throw his opponents off having watched quite a few of his matches. I can't abide Williams and her drama at all, she only needs to turn up and play to about 75percent to win usually but god help the world if she has a minor injury or illness

    Bouchard is worth watching if she is in it.
    If Navarro is on I switch the telly off, unless she is playing a stunner of course.
    Anyone remember Betty Stove. Now there was a looker<cheers>

    Yeah him and Yannick Noah.

    Remember Yannick Noah. Don't mean to stereotype, but he looked like King Willie from Predator 2.
