Bet my bollocks to a pack of Monster Munch that the line judge wears Bulldog Swimmers.

Novak’s a cunt, really likes to wind the crowd up. Amazing player though, no doubt.

Yeah it’s disappointing for Federer.

Not best match ever - really great but that Nadal - Fed final was just

If fed closed that out would have closed the goat debate. Novak now could overtake his slam recorded. Not as liked but could overtake his achievement in this.

Wanted Novak to win. Always go for the underdog.

Don't blame Novak's smugness, given how much of the crowd was against him. Very punchable face though.

Federer lost me the year he turned up in THAT fucking cream blazer.

Fed was the underdog. He was the crowd fave but Novak defending champ, world number 1 and number 1 seed.
