Sadly the LTA Could not afford me

haha; they couldn't afford your salary going 100% to the players - which if you became head of lta it would be irrelevant how much you got paid as yyou would control the amount off funding anyway to some extent. the LTA probably didn't hire you because you are an imbecile, and in terms of tennis knowledge you don't know the difference between the davis and the davies cup.

A1, I'm going to pose a fairly uncomfortable question, but I've been thinking about it for a while. Feel free to ignore it if you want.

Willis is ranked inside the top 350 now and Burton is a good distance away. It's still fine, they can target the same 10Ks, where Marcus will be one of the top seeds and Lewis will get in directly. But very soon, Marcus will have to move on to Challenger qualifiers and I think it'll be ideal for Lewis's singles career that he stays back in Futures for another year, because he's not ready for Challenger qualies. But if that happens, playing doubles together will be a problem, so how are you going to tackle this issue?

You're not the only one who has been wondering about this. Given that Dave and Sean appear to be facing exactly the same situation as Marcus and Lewis, there is an obvious solution that would keep all four of them in all-GB pairs, with Marcus and Dave playing Challengers and Lewis and Sean continuing with Futures for a bit longer and potentially dominating in doubles at that level.
Of course, that's easy to suggest - whether it is actually a realistic option (or even whether the players feel that there is a problem that needs to be solved in the first place) is just about impossible for an outsider to know. I have no idea how well the four of them get on or whether the swapped pairs would complement each other anywhere near as well as the existing pairs. However, if it did work out, it could be a very amicable way to find a solution that might be good for all of them in both singles and doubles.
Steven that is a really good suggestion thinkong about that could work Marcus and dave playing doubles think it worth a try at the very least. If you don't give it a go you will never know.
Think it's pretty obvious that Troubleshooter & A1 are one in the same, given that Gary has slipped up a few times & replied as 'Gary Lewis' while logged in as Troubleshooter.
With that in mind, look at Troubleshooters 1st response to the Salmon's question of doubles partnership switching! It seems to me that Gary initially thought it was a pretty good idea... that is, until he put it to Marcus & Lewis, and then after they sent him on his way, he started with the 'LMAO' nonsense.
I can assure you my friend that Troubleshooter is not A1, I am willing to bet you so if you want to put your money were your mouth is I am game for that, because if you keep making that remark Tennis Gossip I will sue you for deprivation and slander do i make myself clear I am a normal guy giving my opinion what I see fit. So please stop bringing my name into disrepute.

hahaha, I hope that's a joke. I'm sure that you would be able to sue 'tennis gossip' for at least enough money to buy yourself a big mac meal (with some change) for his/her slanderous comments made on a public forum

The other director ( carmen ) & sales director (chris D) feel that with exception of Marcus Willis my GB tennis projects have been a waste of resources that should be focused on local grass roots sports & charitable projects .

So Marcus has been the exception to the rule

As you can see, 3 of the top 11 threads have come after the arrival of A1TA, so he has certainly made things more interesting.

Yeah!!!

If we do wouldn't advise calling me an imbecile to my face unless you got serious back up or want to get a free christmas dinner Courtesy of the NHS

you just a big cyber bully :(

Do your directors think that sending out physical threats on a public forum is good for business?! ... I was one click away from purchasing some viagra but I think I will take my business elsewhere.

indiana · Tennis legend

Yes, Gary, there is no need for fairly puerile name calling on this forum. And that includes by yourself, having not been adverse to calling decent posters, whose posts you often misintetpret, thick and stupid.

So, please, none of it from ANYONE.

Amazed that a guy in your position continues to spend so much time here, just generally alienating more and more folk, who basically SUPPORT what you have done and continue to do for Marcus, Lewis etc

Keep up that good work, but otherwise a bit more shhh would not go awry for everyone's benefit.

LMAO

Ok !ok ! But calling an imbecile was bit naughty right ?

Back to tennis did not like the lighting at Loughborough to be honest a bit disappointed with the facilities

tennis gossip · Improver

AAARGGHH!!

For gods sake, lets just ignore the guy & his comments!

Let him build it up to 300 posts if he wants! I'm sure he's quite able to do it all by himself!

Please please please let this be the last post reacting to any of A1/Troubleshooter posts.

Its getting boring now!
