[WimbledonAce]

No point challenging that.

[cazza99]

Fascinating fact! Where do they go?!!
Andrew Castle he said he had no idea where they went, so Johnny Mac suggested they search Andrew Castle's house. :lol:

[pippadaisy]

Stop wasting your challenges Andy

[traveller7]

[cazza99]

Did you actually just quote Castle?
Isn't that an instant lifetime ban?

[Bardot]

Brilliant Andy! :cheer::cheer:

[pippadaisy]

Wonder where Lendl is dashing off to after that set.
maybe off to breathe like the rest of us
Deep breath Deep breath

[traveller7]

(Tsonga 5-2 up in 4th set so looks set be him in semi final for Andy or Ferrer)

[Jan]

no you can not still work to be done
ok but I'm not sure I can hold my breath for another set!

[-J-]

very casual

[-J-]

ok but I'm not sure I can hold my breath for another set!buckle up soldier

[Sallydaisy]

Ferrer serving first in the 4th set; he's not going to give in.

I think Daveeeed knows he's the last Spanish chance in the Mens Singles and Manolo Santana is in his support box so he's just going to fight to the bitter end.

[-J-]

ok andy no slip up simple hold please
cmonnnnnnnnn

[Manaus]

Assuming that Andy gets through he'll play Tsonga who just won.

[WimbledonAce]

Hope this doesn't go to 5, I can't cope!

[Jan]

great fh

[-J-]

Assuming that Andy gets through he'll play Tsonga who just won.im assuming nothing

[Sallydaisy]

shot!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HoopGirl]

Awesome shot

[traveller7]

Me either a 4 set is much better for him, if he is to play against Tsonga

[HoopGirl]

Then a not so awesome shot

[Sallydaisy]

ANDY!!!!!!!
That was a daft overhead; should have waited!

[cazza99]

Assuming that Andy gets through he'll play Tsonga who just won.

Oi, don't jinx it ;)

[Jan]

argh df

[traveller7]

Argh come on andy, no double faults now
aces here

[-J-]

[Sallydaisy]

Anti-jinx potion production division to the rescue!!!
:cauldron::cauldron::cauldron:

[Manaus]

Sorry looking too far ahead:shamed:

[WimbledonAce]

No rain please!

[Sallydaisy]

Come on Muzzah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:swingin::swingin::swingin::swingin::swingin:

[traveller7]

Apparently it is spitting with rain

[Manaus]

Apparently it is spitting with rain
I thought all the rain was up here :sad: hopefully it doesn't get worse.

[-J-]

hold now then andy
if we are gonna have a break in play we dont want broken now
focus safe hold
cmonnnnnnn

[traveller7]

2 games all

[-J-]

nice quick hold excellent
now pressure him
cmonnnnn

[Sallydaisy]

2-2, 4th set. That was a very quick hold from Andy and puts the pressure onto Ferru.

The Spaniard serves his 4th Ace.

[rondun]

Closing the roof's gonna change the conditions

[traveller7]

break from ferrer is elusive again it seems

[-J-]

alright andy
another quick hold would be nice
cmon

[Nina]

Did Kate & William left the court?

[-J-]

nice
few more would be good
cmonnnnn

[-J-]

close it out
cmonnnnn

[traveller7]

Did Kate & William left the court?

Not sure they havent focussed on them for ages. Why would they leave?!

[Manaus]

Nice easy hold. :thumbup:
Now to push again for a break.

[-J-]

very nice hold to love
just look for the chances
cmonnnnnn

[Manaus]

Did Kate & William left the court?

Yup, apparently.

[traveller7]

Andys game was so quick didnt see the coming and going of it.

[RoastLamb]

Did Kate & William left the court?

They showed Kate clapping at the end of the third set. Maybe a loo break?

[cazza99]

Come on Andy

[-J-]

one more point this gets interesting

[-J-]

sok making him sweet
now one more easy hold
cmonnnnnnnnnn

[traveller7]

Still finding it hard to break his serve frustrating

[pippadaisy]

come on Andy i gotta go out soon
Keep the pressure on

[Manaus]

Really hope Andy can win this set before they choose to close the roof.

[rondun]

They showed Kate clapping at the end of the third set. Maybe a loo break?Agassi left too.
Think they were getting rained on a little bit, so maybe nipped out until the roof was moved to keep them dry.

[cazza99]

Yup, apparently.

Maybe late for tea with granny

[-J-]

arrrg no panic
cmonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[Manaus]

15-30...please hold Andy!

[WimbledonAce]

Dodgy!

[Nina]

[-J-]

Unbelievable rallying.

[hfwardhouse]

Aaaaargh what a time for the rain to come

[pippadaisy]

ah no not a roof closure

[Sallydaisy]

Love hold for Andy for 5-5.

Ferrer to serve again; keep up the pressure Andy!!!

RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:wimbrolly:

[Manaus]

NOOOO rain. :sad:

[-J-]

can we remove the swear bot for five minutes ?
please

[Jan]

are they closing the roof?

[Sallydaisy]

Wimbledon has now switched to BBC1.

[traveller7]

Covers going on

[Jan]

what a pity Andy couldn't take one of those break points

[Manaus]

Court getting covered, roof coming on. Really wanted Andy to win before this happened. :sad:

[-J-]

Think the break benefits the ferret

[pippadaisy]

BBC total pain with this jumping back and forward from 2 to1 1to 2 just make a decision and keep it in one place already

[Madeline]

How infuriating is that!

[Jan]

I have to go out at 7.50 :crying::crying:

[RFS]

Think the break benefits the ferret
Yep, rats (in keeping with little rodenty things)...

[Sallydaisy]

Well, Andy came out all fired up after the constant rain breaks during his Cilic match so let's hope he can do the same again. He's probably got a few mins to freshen up, speak with Lendl and teh team and remain pumped. Unfortunately, Ferrer can do the same .........

[hfwardhouse]

:rolling: someone's got a kitkat brolly!

[RoastLamb]

Think the break benefits the ferret

Darren Cahill thinks it benefits Andy coz he's played under the roof before and the conditions suit his game more.

[cazza99]

Barry Flatman ‏@Barry_FlatmanST

Rain delay and you've got to say that favours Ferrer more than Murray. But they're not closing the roof at the moment - Official!

[traveller7]

Roof not coming on?

[ljs]

not closing the roof , hopefully not too long of a break then

[-J-]

what the >>>>. whats the point of this roof, they are now tying them selfs in knots to keep this line about outdoor tournament going

[Sallydaisy]

are they closing the roof?
No, they say it's a passing shower and plan to continue play 'outdoors'.


Think the break benefits the ferret
Think you might be right; he's still out there fighting isn't he?


:rolling: someone's got a kitkat brolly!
I think we need one of those!!!

[-J-]

Darren Cahill thinks it benefits Andy coz he's played under the roof before and the conditions suit his game more.if they close it
lets hope so

[cazza99]

what the >>>>. whats the point of this roof, they are now tying them selfs in knots to keep this line about outdoor tournament going

I could hear the announcer saying that the met office had told them the shower would pass quickly.

[JAMES4578]

What a time to stop, pity Andy didn't get the break the previous game! Hopefully it is only brief shower!

[traveller7]

Nice quick shower
Hopefully Andy will come out and play a nice 2 games and that will be it!

[HoopGirl]

They announced that the met office said that it would be a short shower so they are not going to close the roof at the moment
