Week 27 Futures - Great Britain F9 ($10,000) - Ilkley (Grass)

RJA · Hall of fame

With Sadecky losing you have to make Goodall favourite to retain the title (especially if there is some outdoor play) but given his recent form anything could happen.

Good luck in the next tournament, Fitzy.

Wazzza that lady I don't knooo what ya mean, I rarely ever like really ever partake of more than a modic a modic err a bit of alcohol, gulp, yeah yous thinks just becos Im Scottish that i drink thats it yeah yoo think we all drunk im reporting u to whoever u report folk like u too, yeah thats what im doing, will u marry me ?

Err, sorry, Mad, re my rather typo ridden post ashamed Actually it is that I am just pretty tired, although that was really bad. I can make plenty typo mistakes at the best of times, but I usually manage to have edited most of them out ( and I did actually edit that post ). I am due an optician's appointment !

Anyway, Fitzy would of been well impressed, but even worse imagine the wrath of SC, eek ! But, anyway, I've gone back, given it my best concentration and think I've tidied it up pretty well, so I might get away with it wink

I note that at 12:56 AM on Friday the LTA site still doesn't link to Friday's OOP (ATP site does) which is frankly completely inexcusable.

Given Goodall's recent form, he has to be the outsider of the 4 if you ask me. Also, LTA site now showing Friday's OOP.

Marcus: "Lost in quarters to goodall 76(3) 46 16- very good match."

Count must've been looking at some dubious website and S.t.e.v.e.n. picked up a virus. Lost a whole day by the look of things. wink

steven · Tennis legend

Ah so that's why I'm having to stay at home and miss the DC tie

- the Count's dodgy surfing habits! Sounds more than plausible! LOL

And yes, if I wasn't still feeling groggy, I would have worked out that the Willis-Goodall match was yesterday, but Marcus did actually post that just under an hour ago.

SF: (6) Albano Olivetti (FRA) WR 525 lost to (4) Josh Goodall WR 462 by 6-4 1-6 2-6 biggrin
SF: (8) Sean Thornley WR 611 lost to (2) David Rice WR 413 by 3 & 2 cry smile

The names of the finalists are, I think, self-evident. wink

I know Dr No has made a few finals but has he won one yet?

Akhenaten · Pro player

Yep, Dr No has won 1 out of the 8 futures finals he's made. (In Mexico, Aug 2010)

2 of his lost finals were vs Goodall (one of which was Ickley last year).

spud · Challenger qualifying

Encouraging to see Josh breaking Olivetti's serve several times as both Fitzy and the LTA have both said it is very big!

Also good to see that Josh is still capable of winning singles matches, I'm sure he wont give up singles if he can keep some of this form up for a bit

Will be interesting to see who wins tomorrow, im gunna go with Josh but last time i predicted it was awful haha
