I agree - the BBC have FOUR channels that practically everyone in the country can receive so why do they insist on screwing around with the schedules to put a once-a-year event on?

I’d rather watch paint dry than watch Top gear or Wimbledon. I went right off Top gear when they got a car and installed some Laminate flooring or something :wtf:

At my school only girls got to play tennis, I found it mildly amusing when Tim Henman said that women should not play tennis. Women should play tennis; men should do manly sports, such as Rugby, Boxing, Kickboxing etc. :wink:

It is said that the womens Wimbledon champion gets a trophy shaped like a plate to remind them of where they really belong.....

But it's good to have a British Wimbledon winner after 77 years wait :-)

If he'd have lost he would have been Scottish though :lol:

I laughed out loud when they showed Alex Salmond trying to get his Scottish flag out and the cameras cut away immediately they realised what he was going to do! :lol:
