Ok well I think I'll head down and chance it. Does FD have a mobile number so I can call him if things get desperate?

stop raining on parades Steven! (we've had enough rain)

unfortunalty i think the move to hard really limits the chances of any of the brits progressing. Boggos especially have surely taken a big knock! you wait all year to get on grass and bam back on hard courts.

however i think the qualies have poroveded some encourage ment with bambam and eaton both havign good perfroamces, also good to hear jonny is getting back on track. hopefully he can get a kinder draw at queens qualies. and that should sttay oin grass, i am sure they have decent covers!

good point from golden slam about the stewards, somthing i had forgotten.

Oops, yes, unfortunate choice of words! ashamed

I agree with everything else, and yes, goldenslam was right that they probably need to be careful about not getting on the wrong side of H&S as far as letting spectators in is concerned.

It's been lost in the general mess that was yesterday, but Slabba & Eaton lost their opening doubles qualifier to the 2nd seeds Elgin & Kukushkin 4-6, 7-5, 10-8.

C'mon Josh & Boggo!

Count Zero · Tennis legend

good idea hoose.

shame for eaton, a lot of hard work this week and nothing. still i guess that goes with the territory of being a up and comming player.
will he be ay queens q? might check him out

Salmon · Tennis legend

I don't know, Count, but they don't like many sites. Put spaces in the URL and tell them to remove them or something like that.

I agree, Wolf. From next year (or maybe even forManchester), I think we should have a different thread for Livescores.
