As long as the kit quality is better than the old Pony kits, I couldn't care less!

I remember having a home kit, as well as a purple and Navy away kit. - Both of which faded around the collar and pretty much fell apart after just a few washes!

The striped purple/navy one? I've still got mine although it doesn't fit me as I was about 9 when I got it :(

Still in good nick though, unlike that useless one Puma made where the badge starts to fall off after a couple of washes. What a waste of £40+ that was.

It was the same at Royal Ascot last week. They were refusing entry to ladies with a hem line which was too high and ladies who had bare shoulders, yet they happily let John McCrick in, who was dressed like a tramp who been pulled through a hedge backwards !
 
The Russian lad is really letting him ave it!

IF he goes out that leaves Djok and Murray a clear path to the final, Tsonga pulled out today, so I see Ferrer as the only hurdle.

Its been a bizarre day with all these retirements aswell!

Federer needed to step up a gear and he has done. Game on !!

Its either in the stars for Murray this year, or if he blows it, one of those one tournament wonders, saying that, there hasn't even been one of them since Richard Krajicek in the middle of Sampras domination in 1996!

Even Tsonga's dropped out. I said after Nadal went out that it wasn't necessarily a good thing as it gave Federer and easier quarter than he'd have but now he's had his quarter and semi made infinitely easier if he can avoid injury and major upsets.
 
Federer's first match was too easy and when I heard the result I shook my head and thought he won't win Wimbledon. I said after his 3-0 thrashing by Tsonga that he's finished and now I'm convinced of it.

I forgot Del Potro, he's in Djok's half along with Ferrer. :)

It should have been over in straights but Stako bottled the tie break

So long as they continue to prioritise the grass over the players, the tournament will suffer as a result. Expect to see more withdrawals and retirements at future Wimbledon's. It's arguably gone from the most prestigious slam to the least.

Federer has been in decline since 2011. Wimbledon last year papered over the cracks. Both Djokovic and Murray would have beaten him easily had the roof remained open. The Tsonga game was just a final nail in the coffin. I got laughed at when I said Wimbledon last year would be his last chance to win a slam and it's looking more and more likely.

Nadal doesn't physically have it in him to play as many tournaments so his ranking will suffer. Rafa and Fed's days being top 2 are well and truly numbered but Rafa has more slams in him whereas Fed doesn't. Djokovic could potentially dominate for the next 3-4 years.
 
(Fast) Grass doesn't reward superior tennis ability. It's hardly surprising Rafa, Federer and Hewitt are all out.

I much prefer the US Open, followed by French then AUS.
