Royal Box - Wimbledon

I’d go. They may have offered tickets to those who would be criticised for accepting freebies so that’s why it’s empty.

I'd go.

How irritating is it to see empty seats around the court when I was not able to get anything in the ballot.

Well if I were invited I would say no thank you I’m not a royalist and I can’t stand tennis give it to the Beckhams they seem to think they are royal and would desperately want to be in the box if they haven’t already

Magenta I'll go in your place with pleasure

I agree with all these sentiments. Why can't they give seats to people who actually deserve it, like people who have volunteered in their community?

I think it is horrible to see the royal box half empty when there are real tennis fans desperate to watch a match. How it can be justified I have no idea. Blatant example of privilege

All these ‘so called’ celebs getting their freebies! Personally I find it disgusting as real tennis fans can’t even afford the worst seats let alone fancy ones!
With celebs it’s all about the old fashioned ‘social season’ being seen at the right places!
Not impressed.
And the commentary this year is very poor

Oh I reckon I could run to a new frock if I was lucky enough to be invited!

I couldn't bear to have the young hopefuls look up to see who might be in the Royal Box and see me.
I'd ask for my own money back.

Well if they do can you let me know so I can go in your place Magenta?

Gosh! I hope they don't ask me. I have nothing suitable to wear and I am not that interested in tennis.

Me too, but I've no idea what I'll wear .
