I take it you haven't watched him play for the past two months then. It seems you have the people who watch tennis a handful of times per year out in force just because Murray happens to be in the semi finals.
Your so right, with your superb in depth tennis following knowledge, rallying him is working so well.
regardless of whether anyone has seen him in the past few months. he's clearly, statistically better at the slams than Murray. Tell me that's wrong.
2-0 see.

Why is Nadal inevitably going to win? Why should Murray start going for ridiculous winners when he is having plenty of success rallying with him? Some strange comments on this thread today.
its not inevitable its just statistically probable.
how is he 'having plenty of success rallying' do you have the rally length/points won stat there?

if Murray is to have any joy in this or the next set -obviously Rafa will win but- he needs to shorten the points.

oh dear. he's made him angry with that lob that was called in by the ump -is it mo lahyani?
edit: its not lahyani. that was a mistake.

the bbc commentary team on tv are rubbish, but they raise an interesting question. has Nadal ever lost a set (on clay) leading 5-1?

riot! at Tesco in Greenock.0

this has been adequate and a bit better than the last match. but he wont beat Rafa playing like this. he needs to go up about 10 gears, whether Rafa's playing shite or not.

its not really quite a RTBC as it made me choose between Dianne Abbott and Lynne Featherstone just then, so you do get some odd match ups, but other wise I agree with the top 10.

I did as well thought he was going to burst into tears.
thought the serb handled it a bit badly. its only a little kid ffs.

why is it he always does this. turns up half asleep and only when staring into the abyss actually play.?
its very frustrating.
edit: its Chela next. yet another banana skin....

Play Suspended with Murray a double break up in the 4th set and about to serve for two sets all.
they let him serve it. its 2-2

he played crap. he was too self flagellating in public. he gave sucker to his opp. BUT he's still in it. and tomorrow is another day. rest, food, good talking to from mum, and I reckon he should take the 5th tomorrow.
and yes. he will have to play better to bt nadal but he'd have to play better to beat my granny and she's been dead some 8 years.

I'm struggling to think of a single one of my opinions which are popular.
Holby city and Jac Naylor. these are popular or at least, correct opinions.

They said on Confidential that she was taken before The Impossible Astronaut, so perhaps as far back as The Eleventh Hour or the Angel episodes? There is a few unexplained things from Flesh and Stone that was never resolved.
I also think the Ganger Doctor will be back. The line the Doctor mentioned about 'flesh stabilising' surely can't be a throwaway one. Perhaps he dies and the Ganger replaces him in the diner?
Also, if Amy was telling the 'Ganger' about his death then the Doctor knew the entire time that he was heading for his death, so he has definitely prepared a plan!
The Doctor gave them bunk beds.
what if he wanted the illusion of dying and needed something which wouldn't really die....

1 - The "Repost this if . . . . " type posts
2 - Being tagged in pictures that dont even have you in them
3 - Old firm pish
4 - Crap like farmville posts and begging for new neighbours
5 - liking your own status
YES!
I hate being tagged in pictures I AM in ffs. why would I be happy to be tagged in ones I'm not? I have the strongest facebook settings available for professional reasons and tagging just lets your non entity pals (not yours noct groove but the people who do this) at least get as far as my facebook front door -which is impossible through any other means.

1. There's a girl on my FB who posts almost weekly "Why did i let him use me again? Do i neva learn????!!!" - Well clearly not you stupid c**t or you wouldn't keep shagging him then getting ignored you fucking bunny boiler. This reminds me, must delete her.
2. Old Firm Fuckwits. It's either "Mon the Gers WATP Celtic scum" or "Lennon is ghod. TAL!!!" f**k off and die you c***s. Slowly.
3. Farmville. "I need help to raise my barn". No you don't. You need a life you fucking tragic individual. Only eclipsed by people who have farmville photos in their albums which look worse than the grapics in a Spectrum 48K game.
4. Those long statuses about stuff like mental illness, disability or cancer that end with "97% of people on Facebook that read this won't repost this as their status". You're fucking right i won't.
5. Text talk. One of my mates is especially guilt of this. I geniunely can barely understand any of his statuses at all. Whats more annoying is that when he posts one, most of the other comments tend to be answered with either "f**k aye mate" or similarly worded answers.
this is a fucking brilliant post. and I second it almost entirely. you know you can block farmville cityville mafia and all that shite?
I have to concede to being prone to long morose rants though and using it a bit like twitter. though I have got right into that now. so do that less.

You can't create Batman. He's just an ordinary person, no superpowers or anything, who dresses up like a bat
you can create batman, with enough money and military hardware and fitness regime.
Green lantern on the other hand...

Perhaps because of the quality of writer for last weeks episode?
I felt this week's was ok, but entirely predictable.
Did anyone NOT see the clone Doctor coming? Surely they won't use this as the get out clause for the Astronaut shooting him?
The real question has to be:
Did the Doctor DELIBERATELY cause a clone??
nah. its the lack of quality in this weeks rather than Gaiman being great. which he is.
yes. yes he did.

Thart's my understanding of how they're getting round it. The thirteen regens was a timelord imposed law not a physical one.
Quite enjoyed tonight's episode anyway. Not as much as last week's, but it was a decent old-style bit of Who.
this weeks was ok. but they're clearly building to the mid season hiatus now. and it wasn't as good as last week. speaking with my whovian associates. we fear last week was a unequal-able peak.

Yeah, and Heston's the authority on kitchen best practice. After all he's got a perfect record when it comes to, oh, seafood and the like.
touche.

Hmmm, that would be a bit of a cop out. Realistically, surely the BBC realise that there could be an incredible story arc for the 13th Doctor discovering if he's mortal or not.
oh I agree with you. but we're not the ones who created the problem.

I didn't see that. What was the get out?
I know that it's been suggested that the 13 was always a limit imposed by the Time Lords themselves, and that since he's the last one then it no longer applies. And also in Trial of a Timelord it's suggested that a Time Lords regens can be handed to another person.
Was the Master not given a whole new set of regens as well at one point?
I wonder if we could argue that *technically* there's no limit c.f. the master incident you cite but that he's a last of the timelords so there's no one to *give* him a new set.
