I wonder who would win between the Liverpool team of the 90's and the Arsenal team of the 30's featuring Charles Charlie Charles ?

 

As Bill Shankly said when Emlyn Hughes asked how Kevin Keegan (in his pomp) compared to Tom Finney:

 

"I have to agree there is nothing between them - but then Tom Finney is 55".

That bunch of goons who follow the GB Davis Cup team everywhere are very annoying. 'lets go GB let's go!' f off!

 

 

Aye, as embarrassing as Australia's 'Fanatics'.

The Canadian takes the title though!

 

 

Denis the tennis menace

I see there was a bit of upset at the US v Germany Fed Cup tie in Hawaii.  An America opera singer sang the banned Nazi era version of the German National anthem :lol:

"I thought it was the epitome of ignorance, and I've never felt more disrespected in my whole life, let alone in Fed Cup," Germany's Andrea Petkovic said

How can you compare one generation to the next with the way things have changed?

In something like boxing you can have some comparison but in tennis the equipment is so much better now. If you put Nedal in a game back in the 70's with shit rackets, balls and shoeswould that be fair comparison? No as he has trained for his career with state of the art equipment and can only rate himself against his peers now which seems to be pretty damn good.

The aussie Kyrgios beats Djokovic in straight sets, both he & fellow aussie Hewitt have now beaten Federer, Nadal & Djokovic the first time they played them. Meanwhile Murray has never lost to an aussie in a tournament.

His recording career says otherwise.

 

He knew when to quit (thank fuck).

I'm on about tennis.

You need to let it go, sonny ????

I can't see Ilie's humour going down well with the powers that be

 

As Romanian player Simona Halep was answering a question in English about Williams' pregnancy at Friday's Fed Cup draw in Constanta, the 70-year-old turned to one of his other team members and added in Romanian: "Let's see what colour it has. Chocolate with milk?"

Another shocker from Murray, he's been spraying unforced errors around like nobodies business all the clay court season.The experts are saying he's the worst world no 1 since Roddick in 2002 and it might even be an idea for him to skip the French like Federer to concentrate on Wimbledon.
