Wimbledon 2024

Years ago they used to have a tournament at the Northern tennis club in West Didsbury every summer, not long before Wimbledon.

Might still do for all I know.

Some players used to use it as a warm up for Wimbledon.

Saw some big names down there over the years. McEnroe, Edberg, Sampras, Connors and loads of others.
 
We done them in their first top flight game. 4-1 IIRC. Best memory playing them was when Andy Morrison got sent off for trying to snog one of theirs in the FA cup game when they played at Selhurst park.
I think he licked the Wimbledon players nose (John Fashanu?) and got hit - he got sent off and no action against the Wimbledon player
