2011 World Championships Semi-Finals Sat 13-Aug

MD - so, JJS/LYD lost AGAIN. Ye gods, supporting those two is like supporting Liverpool - they can beat ANYBODY on their day, but lose to ANYBODY as well. Hoping the OTHER Koreans will shut the door in CY/FHF's faces - Ko looks incredibly dangerous at the moment.

XD - Ad/Ban spotted Ahmad's nerves/inexperience and drilled him. If they win tomorrow I think Bankier will drop dead right there and then in delight.

WD - YY/WX, in two. Only question is how many minutes.

MS - hoping for LCW - Lin didn't really dominate Gade, and Gade was already tired.

WS - would LOVE the Taipei girl to win, and not just to break China's stranglehold - she's a real character.

Sky+ at the ready... two six-hour tapes full already...

Hey, Mark A......kindly share the video we us here.................pls !!

the tournament is not over yet

 

[badMania]

I did not stay up to watch the XD match yesterday and my God.....Towi/Butet succumbed to pressure yet again it seems and lost to the WR18 Chris Adcock/Imogen Bankier, who's playing brilliantly in this past week!

What a disappointing end to Towi/Butet's WC dream

 

[jasonmarc]

Lilyana Natsir looked really annoyed with Tantowi after the match.

The pressure is too great in his first SF of WC.............just like he did in INA PSS XD Final 2 months ago.

 

[jasonmarc]

Archer and Jo something... lol...

Shd be ' Gill Clark'

So... who's the most popular guy on BC NOW? eh? eh?

 

[abedeng]

Btw Kwun, I still blaming you for predicting accurately the lost of INA 2 pairs

i blame the crystal ball!!

He he, I blame the lack of Indonesian supporters at the Arena ...... Only Indonesian supporters would know how to perk up their players.

bankier conquer the net and tantowi keep making mistakes. he's not good enough to handle the pressure

 

[Mark A]

Heh - by tapes, I mean tapes (as in VHS) - I'd need some serious kit to get them onto a computer!

 

[demolidor]

Probably Kanako Yonekura

Nope, didn't noticed her presence in other japanese player match after the loss of ERIKO hirose in the early round. No idea who's that female too.

 

[george@chongwei]

Archer and Jo something... lol...

Is he a BBC or SKysports commentator or something? Or is he related to badminton before this? I think i heard his voice during the OG08 too.

Simon Archer and Joanne Goode... google for these two. they are like the Adcock/Bankier of yesteryears. maybe back 10 yrs ago?

 

[george@chongwei]

I see. Thanks for the info. He often mistaken player's country
Always confused with Japan and Korea.. haha

 

[renbo]

I often wonder how many points I'd get off the top women if I was to play them.

Probably 5.

lolz

What do you mean 5? Yon don't understand the game. You'd get zero points.

The only way to find out is to organise a match to be played.
