Unlucky KL.

The crowning moment of this forum was 'we dine on steak and wine' and it will never be surpassed.

I THINK she of the black beard will win myself, i took 23/1 a min into her or he,s Flight of the Phoenix performence last night just over 5.2 now, it just shows how wrong we can be in dismissing a song when you first hear it , a lay is in order now but to be on the safe side i will put a saver on K.L.  netherlands which is 6.2.at the min.

Netherlands only 5/1, my godSurprised

I'm not a big eurovision fan by any means but I heard their song on tuesday and really liked it. Took a bit of the 66/1 on offer with coral straight after, can't believe its so short now. Will have to lay off some of it now its got so short.

Any ideas why it has shortened up so much?

There was 840/1 for 13euro at one point N.A. Have a look at the betfair market , Austria where a hugh price as well now 4/1 , as i said in a previous post sometimes we dont listen to a song more then once, Arminia on the other hand had punters looking for less then evens for Thousands a few weeks back, you can get 8.5 here now.Many punters would laugh at the idea of betting on the Eurovision but if you trust your judgement there can be money made backing and laying, on the other hand its not easy listening to some of the song over and over again.Grin

Haven't heard the Austrian song but I hope it doesn't win no matter how good it is.

Stupid gimmick to have a woman with a beard, if she was that good a singer, she wouldn't need to do that.

of course it's a gimmick...but it also happens to be a decent song and performer....biggest impact on first time viewer as the beard lodges itself in the memory...not sure how it stands up to repeat viewing.

unning order: Songs that are performed early in the final are at a big disadvantage. It's now ten years since the winner came from the first half of the draw and the running position of the last nine winners, working back from 2013, speaks for itself: 18th, 17th, 19th, 22nd, 20th, 24th, 17th, 17th and 19th. The best positions of all are 17th-19th, responsible for six of the last nine winners.

Our performances in the last number of years tell us all we need to know about RTE. Most of the people there have become so arrogant and important in their own minds that they are likely to disappear up their own arrises. Unfortunately the tax-payer continues to foot the bill. The licence fee should be withdrawn. That might wake them up.

No disrespect kavvie......but no I wouldn't......the only bet id have in an obscure sport like the ones you mention......would be if the player I was backing was playing me......other than that I wouldn't be getting involved.....

best of luck, frank hope it comes in for you.

Netherlands, interesting and quality song but didn't look like a Eurovision winner to me.

Greece for me a bit overpriced at 80's..I guess they won't sway the jurors but will do well in tele vote imo

well done if you latched onto the freak show and gained a profit.

the voting is now becoming a pure joke.

a fact for you to digest. tonight in ireland, poland received over 40% of all irish televotes and won the irish telepoll by a landslide. however as the 5 irish jury members ranked the song, 26th of 26, ie last, the coupling of the jury and televote, meant poland got zip in ireland.

the voting is a joke richters.....more like the whole thing is a joke and has been for years.......it wasn't long ago we sent out a turkey ......and now the thick paddies are wondering why we dont get votes anymore.....
what the paddy should have done is tell them to stick their contest up their ring......not much point sending out dustin and then continuing as normal.....
paddy powers are still betting on it....5/6 yer choice ......is the thing that won it a woman with a beard.....or a man with a fanny......hard one to call.....

"dont usually bet on such d`ozy but haf to admit i had a sneaky 200 bet on eurotrash last nite...."

Agrees with Paulie that anyone betting on this needs medical assistance,slates Roger for aftertiming a tenner and now admits to having a deuce on the circus.
