SuperBRAT - August 21, 2007 11:05 AM (GMT)
Just heard that Tim is being discussed on the Jeremy Vine show on BBC Radio 2 - show starts at 12 and ends at 2, not sure when they will start talking about Tim as it is a multi deabte show with music thrown in. The public an phone in or e-mail, I would but i bet I won't get on! I bet there are gonna be folk slagging him off - he needs me, Mo, Pebs, Flame, Liam, Andy, Jill and any oen else to defend him :)
SuperBRAT - August 21, 2007 11:34 AM (GMT)
They are discussing it in abotu 2 mins time. :)

WHO IS THIS WOMAN? What a load of rubbish, my blood is boiling! She obviously knows nothing about tennis!
Pebs - August 21, 2007 11:54 AM (GMT)
:nope: I dont have it - what did she say? I hope SB has phoned up to tell them whats what - and plug CC while shes at it! ;)
MissSospanFach - August 21, 2007 11:59 AM (GMT)
She called Tim dowdy and mocked how he looked, then said basically he's not in the tabloids like Becks so he's boring! Hello?! He's a sportsman?! Then she went on and on about how boring he is. Didn't even mention his game!
Then this guy came on and said why have we supported him when all he does is underachieve?! If we all thought like that then the English football team should have zero supporters!

I think it is over but I know you can download the show and hear it again if you want. Search for Jeremy Vine on R2. You might have to wait until its over.
Thsi Scottish woman talked a load of crap basically, said Tim was boring and sport is about charsima and glamour - liek Beckham is not the best but he is glamourous so that si ok then :rolleyes:
No oen actualyl praised his game or mentioned how hard ti is for him in the last few years to make it as a Serve Volleyer with the changing surfaces, power hitters etc. I e-mailed that but they took no notice of little old me :(

I know! This guy e-mailed in and said that though - he said how come we support England when they acieve jack at the World Cup! I'm always saying the same.

I reckon the e-mails are picked hours before the show starts. If I'd known I'd have had my e-mail ready and in earlier.

Oh she also said that Murray was more charismatic - whcih to a degree is right - but she was biased if you aske dme - she was Scottish. When asked if she was a Henman supporter she indicated that she wasn't cos she did tno sound like one so i reckon she waas anti- English in a way. Not that I want to start a race war but I just got that impression. But then the other guy form the Times said that Murray was hardly glamourous and looked dowdy, but she said it was OK cos he was young! roflmao

The Sunday Times guy was more complimentary. He did mention Sampras and Goran standign in Tim's way.

Based on what I read in this thread, I decided to listen to the programme in question. Where on earth did they drag that "tennis fan" up from? She sounds more like a "now and then" fan - interested only in someone's personality and on court antics. I suggest she sticks to the fan mags roflmao
And as for the listener who phoned in to say that Timbo never hit on the real reason why he never won a major - well, sorry to contradict that guy, but Timbo came out and said a while back that the reason was "I just wasn't good enough" .... I salute Tim for publically acknowledging that.

So annoying... shitty British Media, woulda expected a little bit more than a Sunday Sport type discussion on Radio 2, I didn't hearing but from your post MissS I'm glad I didn't...
He didn't do this he didn't do that... nooo not many people have done. Not many people have been in 6 Grand Slam semi's either... f'wits.

It has recently come to my attention that far too many people are annoyed by the comments of some woman. Bottom line is, the terrifying Tiger has been far more successful in his field than this bint has in hers. At his peak, Henman was thrilling audiences of up to 10 million with sensational performances at Wimbledon. At her peak, she made a c*nt of herself on live radio. In no way are her clueless comments worthy of any emotion except possibly quiet and brief pity; she's a nobody, let's leave it there. (I'm really f*cked.)

That's funny... after 20, my mind invents a whole new language which only I have copyright on. :wacko:
trisco, where is the rant thread on here? I can't find it. I was gonna let loose with some bile over '24 hour' Tesco's, but that would be off-topic and shameful behaviour, which is alien to me.

Exactly. I gave them a bit of leeway, by shouting that there was a bit left, but I think they knew who was boss. Simple give and take.
