    Murray should wipe the floor with Tsonga to be honest, He will never get a chance as straightforward as this to win Wimbledon again. Federer is not the player he was, I'd be tempted to bet on him not even making the final.

    Federer has a tough match today, Cilic will be no push over.

    People casually writing off Federer. World's gone mad.



    You sound like those who said Iceland would be a walkover for England.

    And the second, long way back now for Federer. Cilic has been on fire.

    Cilic has been ace.

    Stand by what I said on Federer though. Writing him off like it's nothing is just stupid.

    As I said in the post above, Cilic has been ace, but my point remains. Just casually writing off Federer, akin to how some Englishmen wrote off Iceland, is ****ing stupid.

    2-1 now. Federer superb in that set, great comeback from 40-love in the 7th game.

    5-4 in the fourth game, Federer is serving to stay in the match.

    Edit: Done it 5-5.

    frig me this Fed - Cilic match is brilliant! If Cilic wins, first time since 2002 one of Fed, Djok or Nadal not in a semi at a major!!!! 14 years!!!

    This is brilliant. I think Cilic's bottle just deserts him at the most crucial moments.

    But on a different note, I saw a bloke in the crowd wearing pressed jeans (crease down the leg) and a shirt with cuff links. As bad as sandals and socks.

    Yeah, but he was probably doing it for a joke!
