  1. I have seen most of these and from it would recommend Appolosa, Hostiles and Quigley Down Under, if only for Alan Rickman’s classic sardonic villain.
  2. Yes there was some damning evidence against her, so not surprised with the guilty verdict.
  3. Does no one feel that Djokovic has one more Wimbledon left in him?
  4. From a heart attack do you mean? Bound to have been featured on “Ripley’s believe it or not” at some time.
  5. Long way still to go for Alcaraz, but he is good enough to match Borg’s 5 Wimbledons achieved by the age of 24.
  6. Tell that to the dead one lying on the side of the kerb, that I saw when walking to the shops this afternoon.
  7. Even more reason the men should continue to play 5 sets in the slams, emphasising how special those tournaments are.
  8. Quality 5 set match. Well done Norrie.
  9. Someone coming back from two sets down, or two sets to one down is what makes five set play exciting. For many players it takes a set to just settle down and play their natural game. Three set play, even in the earlier rounds for me wouldn’t do justice to the competition.
  10. His next opponent de Minaur is the polar opposite, but I would still expect Djokovic to March on.
  11. Djokovic at 38 is unreal. Can see another final with Alcaraz, unless they meet before.
  12. We have our fair share of imbeciles.
  13. I wrote the comment below back in September. Now that he has been charged, let the courts get on with it. I assume there is still the presumption of innocent until proven guilty. Let’s ask Benjamin Mendy shall we. As for the club the timing does indeed stink.
  14. Another unhinged Trump speech, says he didn’t know the term ‘Shylock’ was anti-semitic! Amongst other nonsense says that because it didn’t rain on his military parade it’s another reason to dispute climate change. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-shylock-antisemitic-iowa-rally-b2782477.html
  15. Johanssen most probably, but Krajicek does not deserve that description. As well as winning Wimbledon and steam rolling a virtually unbeatable Sampras, he reached the semi finals of the Australian and French and quarters of the US in his career. He also held a positive win ratio against Sampras and I suspect few players achieved that.
  16. Hold on, Draper is only 23! Plenty of opportunities to come.
  17. Yes probably right. Draper had the impetus going into that 4th set, but never really looked comfortable. Cilic of course has always excelled on grass.
  18. Draper on the comeback trail hopefully. Cilic’s ball toss is very irritating. It’s a two parter and seems to take ages.
  19. Very sad news. He was clinical in the box and particularly good in the air.
  20. Giroud played a dozen seasons in England and Italy and never scored more than 16 league goals in a season, so yes he was not prolific. He might score 4 in a row and then not score again for 15 games. He played more games for France than Henry, but they do have a similar goals per game record. So no ‘mad disrespect’, good player, but just not a top striker.
  21. One of the strangest careers ever. A striker, but never a prolific goalscorer, who played at some top clubs and won a ton of medals, but will imo never be considered a top player.
  22. I was n’t as invested emotionally in the characters this time around and not a particularly satisfying outcome.
  23. Suspect you mean this idiot, Mark McAdam.
  24. Could not see this as a recent topic, so thought I would start this one, prompted by hearing this early noughties hit, Another Chance Roger Sanchez. Loads out there of course, but definitely one of my favourites! 0:23 the chorus of “I’d rather take a bath with Ainsley Harriott”.
