Looks like he/she has forgotten the password and can't log in again.

I fall asleep early and you guys have all the fun - not fair! I'm tired of arguing with Indy all the time.

The sad thing about all of this is that everything I have said has been true. While certain people may delude themselves into believing that one year at Wimbledon we'll all experience 'Boggomania', I prefer to exist in that much sought after, though very rarely encountered, area of space known as 'reality'. Look at the other qualifiers at Newport, they've done themselves proud. Not so Boggo, I see he's crashed out of some other mixed-doubles event too! Yet I'm the one being made out to be the big Boggoman (sorry bogeyman), simply for telling the truth!

At least I entertained myself, far more than I was entertained by Boggo's perverse beat down yesterday. Roll on Boggo's retirement - and an end to his 'reign of awfulness' over British tennis.

P.S. Is eblunt being serious when he/she says Boggo should go into coaching? By coaching does she mean bus driving? That would make much more sense, lol! Boggo couldn't serve a Sunday lunch! Never mind coach people to play pro tennis! That would be like Andrew Castle criticising Andy Murray's tennis game...

Neither of them have any right to do so.

Hi, Jason


What are your views regarding Wimbledon wild cards?

Salmon, I think that wc's should only be reserved for those who deserve them - in terms of ranking and overall attitude.  Boggo deserved to get his wc revoked, because he was far too accustomed to failure, and didn't have a hope in hell of ever actually utilising the opportunity granted to him.  

Jim Ward deserved one, and was elligible for one, this year, what with his astonishing display at Queens.  The logic, expressed by Anacone or Roger Draper (I can't remember who) that forcing Boggo to qualify would somehow improve his game, doesn't seem to be working, considering Boggo hasn't even came close to qualifying.  

WIldcards are a good tool, but should always be given to those who deserve them, and not given to no-hopers, who simply just make up the numbers.

So are Cox and Evans no hopers as well?

Yes. Only useless people play tennis.

No Scottie, I think that they have far better attitudes than Boggo.  Boggo has wasted eight opportunites of free access to the first round of wimby.  If Cox and Evans behave similarly, then I'm sure the LTA will reconsider the situation of allocation.  All I know is Boggo's was deservedly revoked - when almost everybody in the LTA say that you have a bad attitude and that you don't work hard, then there must be some truth to it.  There's no smoke without fire, and there's no first round shame for Boggo at Wimbledon anymore, he reserves that for the first round of the qualifiers instead!!  

I genuinely hope Liam Broady lives up to expectations, and maybe Ward will push through the rankings.  All I know is that the future of British tennis does not involve Boggo.

That is okay. But what do you think of the Vietnam War???

Well Salmon, contrary to popular opinion, I believe that the Vietnam war was largely successful for US-Western interests, while of course being catastrophic for the people, and the national heritage of Vietnam.

Mmmm, if you put "elligible" into the Search facility, you'll find that RBBOT misspelled the word in the same way, in his posts on 1 January 2010 and 14 July 2010.

Yes, but does RBBOT double edit her/his posts and keep both the tags? I know that you do!

Yep Ratty, you've got me! Banged to rights, I have been! Of course, typing a word incorrectly with two continuous l's - when typing quickly - probably could only happen to one person. Good logic Ratty. I was going to accuse you of being a member of the 'spelling police', but it's clear form your powers of deduction that you are clearly a 'spelling detective'. Don't give up the day job.

Let it be, Jason! Do you think the Titanic could have been saved?

Let me turn this around Salmon (because you're asking some terrible questions), what do you think about the rivalry between Sartre and Camus? How do you reckon it compares to, say, Borg and McEnroe? Federer and Nadal? Boggo and that kid in the park who keeps on beating him in straight sets?
