Results are slow in coming through from Jersey this week

Sheddie · administrator

Hopefully Sean Thornley can qualify for a futures for the first time, he's come close several times previously. He had a tough match today against Swede Henrik Norfledt but I reckon if he was on top form he could have won.

I reckon Matt Illingworth and Ed Allinson will cause upsets against higher ranked foreigners. Allinson's big serve should be very effective on the fast indoor courts at Jersey. Richard Irwin, Thomas Greenland and Konstantinos Kalaitzis also look likely to get through.

Tom Rushby probably got into the main draw via a withdrawal and possibly Jim May aswell so it looks like wildcards have gone to Searle, Brewer, Burn and maybe one of Cox or Evans.

This tournament is being shown live on Jersey TV, no one on here lives over there by any chance ?

From tomorrow, I'll phone regularly to find the latest British results.

Grrr, main draw for Jersey is still not up !

If I'd known I would have texted Slabba !

steven · Tennis legend

Yes, shocking isn't it!

Does Jersey TV really exist?

Niall · Pro player

The main draw has been published and it's not great. Jamie Baker, this is what you could have won.

Main Draw

We have no seeds, our top ranked player is the man known as Slabba (never thought I'd type that). Even usual p.o.i. Dan Cox and Robert Searle are missing . We are going to need someone to really play above themselves to get any British interest past the second round.

The somewhat eccentric assignment of Wildcards is David Brewer, Jim May, Ed Seator, and Tom Burn.

Apparently it does, according to a newspaper article I read from last year, each year the Jersey TV channel show full live coverage of the tournament.

Looking at the main draw:

Another really horrible 1st round match-up for Slabba, he's got 4th seed Stefano Ianni [wr: 435]. The good news for Alex is that Ianni is an out and out clay-courter and has only played 1 match indoors this autumn which he lost in two tiebreaks. He's had a lot of success in futures, reaching a couple of finals but they've all been on clay. Earlier this year, Ianni really struggled in the indoor tournaments in January.

We're guaranteed two Brits in rd2: Tom Rushby plays Ian Flanagan and Ross Hutchins plays David Brewer. On current form, Rushby and Brewer have to be big favourites to reach rd2. Hutchins beat Brewer 6-3, 6-4 in their last match but that was in 2002.

Tom Burn should make rd2, he plays a French qualifier who's just got 1 ranking point.

I reckon Ed Allinson has a decent chance of securing his 2nd point, he plays Belarussian qualifier Egor Puntus [wr: 948]. Puntus has played mostly on clay this year.

I wonder where Searle, Cox and Evans are this week !

Probably in the pub getting drunk wondering why David Brewer, Jim May, Ed Seator, and Tom Burn got the WCs

Sheddie · administrator

I'll ring at 1.15 to get the first set of results

Salmon · Tennis legend

Cox is in Japan as I said before.

Evans I don't know about and I'm shocked that he isn't here.
