Any more don't-give-a-fuck-ab out-Wimbledons out there?

When I put the telly on to see Wimbledon I was disappointed that there weren't any Wombles to be seen.
Where have they all gone? A-Womberling I suppose!!

Whose screeching?

DH currently watching the tennis. Started off with a women's match. Had to turn over because of the screeching. Turned over to a men's match. They are grunting. Sounds awful, why do they do it. (John Newcombe and his lot didn't).

Farnorth A recount give three adverse mentions of Andy Murray and one of a "grumpy Scotsman" (unnamed) plus one saying that the grumpy Scotsman is less grumpy nowadays. Still not "all" of the posts are running him down, only 20%, and only 10% by name.

Andy Murray? What has he to do with not giving a fuck about the event or its coverage on telly?

Am not interested in either Andy Murray or Wimbledon so I fit the title of the thread.

re Andy Murray - I certainly don't want him to fail, maybe if I was a Scot I would be more of a fan of his.
And I certainly don't aspire to all his material rewards - best in the world , lots of money etc, not for me thanks.
I use to be interested in the game itself - plus the ups and downs of the various top names.

I've posted on both the hate and love threads to say I don't care either way, so I'm happy to confirm that here.

We've got an abundance of gorgeous berries of several descriptions in DH's allotment this year, all free. I'll forego the cream for the sake of my hips.

What's on at Wimbledon?

No, don't like it at all, no sports, thankfully DH doesn't either!

Personally, I don't like anything that involves balls and men. So I never watch tennis, cricket, football, rugby, golf, snooker or billiards (including pocket ones). I'm with Baggs, don't give a flying about any of them.

Hang on, Paddy, what do you mean ALL? Two posts out of twentyone mentioned Andy Murray. The rest were about people who don't much care whether they see the tennis or miss it, or wish there were more alternative viewing to the million games of it. Did you mean to post this on the "I hate Wimbledon" thread? This is the "I don't give a fuck either way" thread.

so I'll asssume you've all been much more successful than Andy Murray in your lives,hit all your goals and all have squillions of pounds in the bank...so very well done to you all.You really shouldn't look down on Andy though ,you know what they say about meeting people on your way back down the ladder!Sad folk who actively want someone to fail .I shall avoid you in case I'm your next target...lol

When I was a tennis-mad teenager I used to listen to Wimbledon avidly on the radio. Then go off with my friends to play tennis in the local park.
Couldn't care less now, and agree with others about Andy Murray.

But bluebelle, Devongirl This isn't either a love Wimbledon thread or a hate Wimbledon thread. It is a take-it-or-leave-it. So it doesn't duplicate either of them.

Baggs buggers off to find something else to be excessive about

maw, just my weirdness. There's an I love Wimbledon and an I hate Wimbledon, why not a Don't give a fuck Wimbledon?

whitewave, perhaps you could try the not replying at all option? And also read what I wrote rather than what you think I wrote. "I might watch some matches" is not equal to "wouldn't watch".

devon, there's nothing excessive about loving or hating Wimbledon? Okay, there isn't. So there's nothing excessive about me expressing my feelings about it either.

Quirky's allowed. Wish there was more of it on GN.

Not watched since the days of Bjorn Borg. I don't care who wins but would prefer it not to be Murray.

*Baggs, I think it's really excessive starting this post - there are now 2 for Wimbledon haters and only 1 for Wimbledon fans! Can they be amalgamated in any way?

Never watched it, couldn't give two hoots about tennis. Andy Murray is called Mr charisma bypass in our house.

I don't hate Wimbledon so I won't be going to that thread. I don't care either way.

I have a TV, but watch it very little. Also avoid hearing about wimbers on radio or in papers, so I'm happy.

You will find several of us on the "I hate Wimbledon" thread Baggs
