Australia should be stripped of its slam and the ATP need to bring into a country that’s not a racist backwater.

Serbia would seem the logical choice

i presume hes related to bob?

I doubt it.

Bob was Labour.

And a good bloke

Back in court again.

It’s the only court Novax will be seeing in Melbourne.

A disaster for real tennis fans.

Are you referring to Prince Andrew’s public shaming?

I know Prince Edward was a big fan of real tennis - he even presented a programme about it on Saturday mornings on Channel 4 in 1995, after Trans World Sport and the GAA highlights.

Didn’t know Andrew was a supporter of the game though.

No I wasn’t actually.

Why did you say real tennis then? That’s a different sport.

The real irony is that when the CCP arrive the Australians will lie down and give them the run of the place

I meant real fans of tennis. I suspect you knew that but you debate in such good faith on other matters that I’ll happily give you the benefit of the doubt

Surely real fans of tennis want players to play by the rules, both on court and in court.

Which Novax has not done.

He has brought the game into disrepute.

You’re dead right. I can see viewing figures going through the roof

Sporting events are about integrity, not shamelessly flouting the rules for ratings.

On another thread there are lads vilifying those involved with the Late Late Show for wanting high ratings.

Here we have yourself telling us to hell with sporting integrity, it’s all about the ratings, baby.

Lads on this forum don’t know whether they’re coming or going, a bit like oul’ Novax himself.

That’s not what I said

Why did you mention “viewing figures”, so?

Good to see you backtracking and now agreeing that sporting integrity is what matters.

It was what mattered when Tim Henman was elected from the doubles at Wimbledon in 1995 and when Novax himself was ejected from the 2020 US Open. And is again here.

Real fans of tennis agree.

Confirmation that the Aussie gov are hard fascists.
