Never unfollow nivenj1 numbers. He was on blistering form for Murrays last match. Beat Irvine Welsh comprehensively.


Still, world number 1 and 2 remain in the tourney and a few toughies enroute to the final for Murray. One game at a time.

Tennis - never played myself- but how hard can it be ? hitting a big soft ball over a low net with a big racket, usually against a 15 year old kid. pfft. I would like to see Andy Murray wrestle the Undertaker- that would show how good he was.

jeez you're not wrong. he was explosive yesterday, 'pumping it up your paella coloured dung funnel'. Kinda wish I'd not tuned in for that one mind.


(HAVE to unfollow him when it's not tennis else tiresome smugfest with Caitlin 'look at MEEEEEEEEE' Moran is enough to make me want to stab myself repeatedly with a blunt knife)

TH was indeed not in same league as AM but "an average jobbing player at best"? He was a lot more than that.


Top 20 ranking for nearly a decade, and much of it in top ten. 28 ATP finals, 11 wins. 6 grand slam semis - one of them at RG which was pretty remarkable for him.


He made the absolute most of a pretty limited set of physical attributes.

I see, I only go onto Twitter for the tennis "commentary" from Niven and Welsh, dont see the other stuff.


DJKQ: Think Henman was more than a jobbing pro. 4 grand slam semis, upto 4 in world at one point I think, ?7m in winnings and several ATP tourney wins. Id call a jobbing pro somebody who is around 25-35 in world, gets into the third round of tourneys, and has a once in a lifetime game knocking out a top 5 to get to the quarters of a slam once or twice in that time. Still make a packet of $$ all the same. (The above was done from the top of my head without wiki so may be some innacuracies in the detail)


ETA: cross post with TM

    • Ha ha, some people really don't like an opinion that differs to theirs do they! Bravo One Dulwich - you're magnificently rattling the cages of people who don't want to hear a differing opinion and the fact they get so irate about it is the icing on the cake! Some spend so much emotional energy trying to convince themselves One Dulwich is some shadowy, agitator state-funded lobby group when all they are is a group of local residents giving a voice to the majority of residents impacted by the measures.
    • @Earl, Be assured, it is purely a local group. In fact it is a genteel group of Dulwich area residents, mostly ladies , who are a little  reluctant to publish their individual names as they do not wish to be targets for hostility from internet trolls. Local residents who attended the anti-LTN gatherings in Dulwich would have easily recognised the active members of the group. Should you have any queries about funding, it is quite easy to send them an email.
    • Hi  I have a spare old wheelbarrow that you could have for free. You’d need to come and collect it from Telegraph Hill, so drop me a message if you’re still looking and we can arrange a time best wishes carrie
    • This is quite a serious allegation. What evidence is there of this? Pressured how and by whom? This is quite a spin on ‘it’s been agreed with the emergency services’. They think the vehicles pictured driving through with partially covered plates are the result of ‘poor signage’ 🤔  If it is as they say ‘small numbers’ driving through the square, that doesn’t suggest that the signage is unclear. I mean who honestly believes it’s possible to drive through there without noticing the signs / planters (assuming you’re driving with due care and attention)?! 🤨  Also, haven’t ‘One’ opposed any improvements to the layout / landscaping and signage proposed by Southwark? It’s all a bit desperate. At the height of the LTN ‘controversy’ a number of co-ordinated ‘One’ groups popped up across London. It doesn’t feel like a local grassroots movement, but has all the hallmarks of astroturfing. The lack of transparency about it’s funding / sponsorship and structure does not help with this impression.
