Why can't they bring a tournament up North?  Cos we're all scum, who couldn't possibly represent tennis players, because we're too poor to pay for upper class tennis. OR The actual answer, there aren't any particularly good tennis centres up here. Or am I wrong?

They should build a new one! And have a court with a roof that comes over like the one they are building at Wimbledon. Having all these tournaments down South is making the sport seems like some its just a Southerner sport. And with Jamie and Andy coming through you'd think they would think of having one in Scotland.

What a surprise.  I wonder if we'll see some top players choose Eastbourne over Queen's.

No because it's in different weeks and Queens has a better history, more points and more money. It's just another recipe for disaster as I believe Eastbourne isn't big enough to hold two events in one week, so any rain could really muck up the schedule.

If Tim learns Gaelic and does a bit for the Gaelic channel, you're f**ked Tommy.

Very true Andrew. Very true. Thank God like only 10 people still actually speak it in Ireland.
SO why we actually have a gaelic channel is a mystery...

Tommy, I'm going to write to Timmy and tell him that disadvantaged (non English speaking) people in Ireland who only speak Gaelic are going to be disappointed that they won't be able to understand you, and that he should take up the language immediately to address the situation

I know that Queen's and Eastbourne are in different weeks but I'm meaning that some of the men might take the week of Queen's off instead of the week of Eastbourne.
