Federer V. Cilic

[Eve]

Spoilers if not watching the match live.

[Eve]

Excited already in the build up. Sad that Wimbledon is nearly over, been a great two weeks!

[Butterbun]

Oh and I will be glued to it. He's a big fan of Fed and it promises to be a good match.

[Eve]

I really hope it's a good final. I'll be cheering for Federer, I'm also a huge fan.

[murraymints]

Allez Roger !!!

[Eve]

Allez indeed! I'd so love for him to win this!

[murraymints]

he is so squeeeeeky white !!

[Eve]

He is. Stop stalling Cilic, no keeping the mighty Mr Federer waiting! :)

[EcclesCake]

I can't stand tennis and only try to keep up with what's going on so that I can have a conversation with people for two weeks in Summer.

However, am I right in thinking it's a week later than normal?

[Eve]

Wow, Cilic is so tall! Federer is hardly short at 6'1!

[zebo]

My metaphorical money is on Cilic.

[murraymints]

nope..usually first two weeks in July..Edinburgh Trades holidays...

[Eve]

Hi Eccles, yes it is later this year.

[murraymints]

how tall is he ?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Yes Eccles I thought that too. Its usually the last week in June and the first week in July. Don't know what happened this year but its clashing with the Test Match.

[Eve]

Not too much later, started 27 June last year, 3 July this year.

[murraymints]

as I remember always on during Edinburgh Trades fortnight, which meant constant arguments on holiday as I stayed in hotel watching tennis the whole time !!

[Eve]

Cilic is 6'6 apparently! Think about the same as Querrey. Nadal, Murray and Federer are all about the same I think, just over 6 foot.

[zebo]

Used to be on during Bolton Wakes fortnight, last week in June and first in July, watched it during the school holidays. I think that because July 1st was a Saturday things are a bit topsy turvy, the British Grand Prix is a week later, usually around 8th, OH's birthday.

Like the majority, i hope and believe that The Fed wins. The bookies certainly believe he will with some very prohibitive prices being quoted. However, hoping i've found a 'value' bet in Fereder to win and at least one set going to a tie break @ 3/1 with Paddypower. Come on The Fed!!

[Eve]

I stand corrected, doing Andy Murray out of a few inches, he's 6'3 according to Google.
