@jamesgraysport@josemorgado Later start time clearly not working in the UK. Also the casual tennis watchers not interested in the lack of big names in the sport.
@BarclayCard18 The last time Scottish football was remotely interesting was 1978. Since then, it been utter shite. Crow all you want at least England make the semi. Oh and I believe Andy played for GB.
@davefrodo@zdzichudyrma@ViewFromTheQ@jamesgraysport If you’ve got a show court ticket and you are in by 1030 get on an outside court for 11 you potentially could have play until close of play at 11 o’clock so 10 hours is quite feasible. I’ve also done it by resale.
@PaulFMcNamee Full courts here at Wimbledon enjoying the doubles, is this a case that they want all the pie to themselves. Greed at the top is ruining the game.
@tennis365com Would Wimbledon move back another week to increase the season. And where do you put a masters? Queens Club is too small and I can’t think of another location in the UK. Guess Germany would make sense.
@TheTennisLetter He’s talks a lot of sense, I would also add location plays a major part in the UK. anyone north of Manchester is at a massive disadvantage as the LTA centres on the south east of England.
@MartinKnight_ It’s too expensive for the average fan to now attend games, the corporate’s have in essence taken over. Clubs have lost their roots to their local communities too much football behind pay walls and it no longer feels like the working class game that it was.
@emma_cocofanss It would also actually be nice to have a 500 event north of Watford seems to me the LTA thinks only of south-eastern Britain. Downgrading Birmingham to a Challenger was outrageous.
@emma_cocofanss Unless Wimbledon moves back another week which is highly unlikely, I don’t see how you squeeze a masters into the schedule. And Queens is certainly not big enough to host a masters.
@BenRothenberg it’s okay for you journalist who swam around the world watching tennis for free. when the Great unwashed have to pay through the nose for the pleasure or privilege to watch, people want to feel they’ve had value for money, 80 minutes and many are going to feel short changed
