I'm thinking this stop in play could spur Federer to take the third set.

 

O/T but they keep showing Gwen Stafani who could not look less interested if she tried :lol:

*hopes that play doesn't get massively delayed*

 

If Top Gear is cancelled tonight so they can finish the tennis I will not be happy

^ haha I noticed that too. Last shot of her showed her fixing her hair, yet her husband was quite the passionate fan so possibly a case of opposites attracting.

 

Really though, I would be thrilled if Federer lost. (I feel kinda bad for saying that as I onced backed him when he was the under dog but those days are long gone - the price for being the best lol).

Don't worry, I reckon they'd cancel whatever on BBC 1 instead, Top Gear has a huge loyal fanbase.

Yeah, he's totally rooting for Federer. Least there's no chance of her going into labour with the excitement :lol:

 

I'm torn really. I want Nadal to win for the same reasons you do (even though he knocked our guy out :P) but also I'd like to see Fed get that record. :idea2:

A huge loyal fanbase means nothing to the BBC.

 

I doubt they will push back "George Gently" on bbc1

Hmm, they pushed back whatever the new BBC drama was when the Murray match overran though. :idea2:

 

We'll see I guess, they're saying it might only be half an hour until play starts again and if Nadal wins this set then that's it :D

Yeah, just looking at her level of excitment anyone could tell she was at the men's final at wimbeldon :shifty: lol. Doesn't she realise her blonde hair and celebrity status forces the camera to zoom in once in a while?

 

Hm yes, that record would be something of a great achievement! Atleast a very close end would satisfy me, even if Federer wins. I suppose I jus want Federer to feel threated by Nadal, like really threatened. I'm not sure why but I feel Fed already thinks he's got it, despite being 2 sets down (or maybe this rain delay has given my mind time to think strange thoughs :thinking: Bloody weather *shakes fist*).

I think Fed's going to come back out regenerated after the break and take this set.

 

As for the weather, sorry, we're rubbish :lol:

I hope this game finishes today :o

Bring out the sunshine already :sunny: I don't blame your British weather lol, it happens every year. I blame the one who hasn't managed to devise some 20th century device to work around it lol.

 

Due to the delay, here they are running by a mini-documentary of Federer's tennis life. It's builting my support for Federer which I don't want lol, I still have hope for Nadal. Gosh I'm quite conflicted. ^ I hope it's wrapped up today too, and soon - I'm ready to doze lol.

I'm glad theres no tennis at the moment because I've juyst lost my satellite signal because of the weather :dozey:

Isn't the roof going to be ready from next year?

play will start shortly and I've got telly back. Come on Fed! :dance:

Great!

 

Yet, I don't know who to go for anymore, first it was Nadal and now, especially after they just aired the Fed documentary (so touching btw) I'm confused :wreck: I mean it would be great for him to win it and take the record too but.

 

I'll stick with Nadal because I think hes got a real chance, though if Federer takes the next set, it's as good as his. Let the game resume :cool:

Isn't the roof going to be ready from next year?

yep they just said, and they're going to pump something like 150000 litres of air conditioned air into the court after the roof shuts :stunned:

3rd set, tie break :stunned:

4th set :dance:

another set yes but I have a feeling Nadal will take it although Federer does seem to have had a boost since the tie break, and it's making me uncomfortable. just gives Nadal another chance to show why he deserved to win it (i mean deserves, yes, of course i meant to use the present tense lol).

play will start shortly and I've got telly back. Come on Fed! :dance:

 

Yay! I feel like the outsider in my house, they all want Nad to win.

 

Come on Fed!:D

A classic in the making!

 

Come on Roger! :dance:

Come on Fed!!! :D :D So glad he has come back into this!! :D

hahahahahahaha nooooooooooooo Federer nooooooooooooo, Nadal!!! :D

 

;)

Play suspended. Grr.

noooo

I give up! :snore: Will this match ever finish?
