That’s better

She's dropped her coach to look for one she thinks will better help her progress her game. She worked with him every day. Who is anyone else to say she's making the wrong decision? Who even knows the input he had into her success, the relationship they had or what his demands were to stay on?

 

I assume you'd rather she stayed with what she clearly thinks is a substandard coach for her needs, someone who worked with her for a whole two months, outta respect? She's a winner, not a sentimentalist.

 

The old English disease strikes again.

Young woman couldn’t possibly know what’s best for her career.  
 

Then she has the temerity to turn up to an event promoting tennis with the other success stories from the US Open which was attended by a patron of the LTA. Outrageous.  
 

[Captain Howdy]

The fucks being a young woman got to do with anything? Who mentioned anything about that?

[Rico1304]

No mention of the fact he wants to be U.K. based to coach his son? Nothing on that?  
 

 

[Bjornebye]

Hang on is this the Daily Mail creating a shitty dishonest ‘headline’ because she isn’t white Caucasian? You only have to look at the comments on every single article they’ve done on her since she got some success.

Yep, I thought that 'jolly hockey sticks with Middleton' bit smelt a tad, but I let it lie for fear of having an episode if I raised it.

Kate and Emma can play with my jolly hockey stick anytime they want.

Why? It wasn’t just her it was all the players who’d done well at the US Open. Was it ok for them to have a hit with Kate?  Would it have been ok to have a hit with someone you like? 
 

I love the British public, moaning about pressures being put on sports stars, moaning about setting them up to knock them down then the fucking second they don something they don’t like…

Imagine if she’d done it with Meghan Markle

So an observation on which on the face of it is a cunts trick is spinned into misogyny and racism. Numero was right this place has jumped the fucking shark.

The Daily Mail and how they spin their reporting are racist.

Why is it a cunts trick?  You didn’t know anything about the arrangement she had.  You didn’t know he wants to stay in the U.K. to coach his son.  Why is it ok for footballers to increase their chances of success by move to bigger clubs?  

[Bjornebye]

This is just today alone. They know what they’re doing, they know what whips their readership up into a frenzy. 

 

 

[Bjornebye]

And this is deplorable reporting , absolute lies “a Labour source”

Tennis is still shit.

We’ve moved on from tennis on this thread now. Talk to me about how Meghan markle is trying to kill Harlem school children 

[John102]

I could stare at those outfits from now until the end of time and not understand how they come up with that article.

Stuff like that’s easy when you’ve got an agenda to drive

I think you got the wrong end of stick there. I was referring to Howdy mentioning it, hence the inverted commas. Of course she did the right thing in attending. Imagine the shitstorm had she blanked her own homecoming.

Stig, maybe don't give the Daily Heil the clicks, they don't care why you are on their website, just that you've clicked on it.
