Wimbledon

My favourite sporting event of the year

Wimbledon

The first time I went to Wimbledon was in 1985 and I went every year after that for 10 years never having any problems getting a ticket.

I moved abroad in 1995 and didn’t return to the UK for 10 years. As soon as I returned I began submitting my ballot entries.

Yesterday when I watched the ladies quarter final between J Polini and Emma Navarro on Centre Court (on TV) I couldn’t believe they were playing to an empty house. I had to have a rant.

I am not sure why everyone accepts it’s impossible to get a ticket. I heard yesterday if you were in the grounds the turnout was so poor they were letting people into centre court for free.

I am a genuine tennis fan desperate to watch in

person, happy to pay, but not wishing to stand in a queue from 3am to get a seat. I want to plan ahead, get dressed up, eat, drink, shop and enjoy my first love tennis and my second a great day out.

Be careful Wimbledon, when you haven’t got anyone coming anymore you might just find your loyal supporters are not so loyal anymore.

I would like to see populations being asked by leaders if they want to see their taxes spent to build armies and buy weapons and use military force to intimidate and terrorise other nations and people we just don’t like or who don’t agree with us. The reason I joined Poopsnoop is to have a voice. I am sick of seeing people being blown up indiscriminately and not being able to do a damn thing about it. It’s demoralising, depressing I feel complicit and not the point of life.
