Game set and match

Last words on this years "wimbers" from the winner (a certain Spaniard called Nadal) of the men's championship.
"Yesterday I played against a local player and the respect of the court was amazing and that's not happening on every court in the world." As I said previously the English wanted anyone to win except a Scotsman and they say it is the Scots that are biased.

World Cup 2010

This time around the world cup has just about finished with only the final still to come. I feel it's about the biggest non event to happen in ages with hardly a talking point except for the goal "that was but wasn't" against the 1966 version of the goal "that wasn't but was"
During the break of the Spain v Germany game the panel on the BBC spoke of a sublime pass, an exqusite pass, an excellent through ball and all this tosh because a Spanish player kicked the ball a few feet in front and found a player from the same side who then managed to kick the ball into the goalkeepers arms, and from players who earn thousand's of Euros per week. Who is kidding who here? The football players going through the motions or the studio panel who keep talking the game up to keep themselves in a very lucrative nice little earner? My own opinion is a major overhaul is needed urgently and not with a camera to capture a ball that crosses the goal line every blue moon, the major factor is the constant obsession with off-side and the line that appears on screen to tell you his nose or his left leg or right hand is off-side what a lot of {hockey cockey and shake it all about}. Stop the off-side and watch the "beautiful game" flourish and lastly stop the stupid substitutions when playing added on time of 3 or 4 mins and have 3 or 4 substitutions what a waste of time and energy.
