I’ve just realised I am biased, just got a wad at 40 making her my biggest green. (I see everything apart from Ella backing as short term mind).
|
|
By:
Yeah, no real threat I guess Henry. She ain't no Leon. Macmanus was rubbish but the competition was awful
|
|
By:
Their biggest problem is keeping the illusion going that its a close contest.Quite possible Ella even has a change of gear ie playing piano,or singing another self penned number.Ive got £170 @ 7/1 and £40 @ 9/1,but owing to covering virtually the whole field,I'm only £800 green.Only 3 reds mind (District 3,Jade and Jahmene)
|
|
By:
4 reds...Rylan of course.
|
|
By:
About 3k green, but lots of reds now of course
|
|
By:
4K Ella here. A mass of reds though – Jahmene, Jade, all bands, Chris, Rylan – one of which will probably have a run at some stage.

I thought last year was tricky to pick the winner, but really this year is prolly going to be much more difficult to get a decent profit!
|
|
By:
Can you imagine the forum meltdown if Ella gets ill or something?
 It can happen. |
|
By:
I do think most on here are over doing it with Ella. Like I say if I had to choose one act as the winner then yes I'd choose her but at even money after just one week of the show I think is really short.
I agree there's not much up against her but to put all your faith in her is a little too optimistic I think. If you've got nice ante post odds then I'd definately be looking at selling some off at even money but hey ho. |

They’ll push others Lou for variety but they won’t de-ramp Ella. She may have a bad week of course.
She really has come from nowhere. Unless I’ve missed it and someone has a link to a pre-XF Ella recording? I know Little Mix came from nowhere but there was a high degree of manufacture. With Matt and Rebecca I was able to dig up past evidence of decent voice and experience. I wonder who the big Ella layers are. Nobody on here (be brave, own up if you’re out there). |
|
By:
The HS are the big ones I guess
|
|
By:
Yes veru few seem to go against her yet who's laying all the bets then? I haven't backed or layed her for a penny myself. I just honestly think that even money is really tight at this stage and people seem to be counting their money. I don't think it's quite that obvious she'll win.
|
|
By:
Prices are tight though. I guess until the weekend when there’s a run on whoever is pimped.
|

By:
^ I wrote that before reading Lou 11:20. Are we long lost twins or summat?

Perhaps I'm Henry IX?

You are Enery the 8th I am, I am

Under my umbrELLA ELLA ay ay, odds on
 |

By:
The forum is waaaaaaay too confident on Ella. imo.

and so it will remain until the new messiah is revealed |
|
By:
Hopefully if there is to be a challenge, we'll see them coming a mile off. I'd rather be sitting on top of the ella castle, than trying to scale the walls
 |

By:
I don't see anyone bar a boy band beating Ella, and for that to happen a lot of things need go just right for them, both bands getting better and driving the naritive of the show to make it - which one do you like UJ or D3? getting the girls and mums screaming.
prob won't happen, making ella not great value but not bad value either. |
|
By:
And then in the final, the boyband vote falls away and Ella p1sses up. Too many old gits voting in the final for a boyband to win, certainly this year
|
|
By:
So more old gits voting this year then GB?
 |
|
By:
If JLS and 1D can't win then neither of these lot will.
|
|
By:
Eh HF? Old gits (over 30s) always decide the final.
|
|
By:
MK1 the winners. All the grans love them
|
|
By:
RMB, jls were to urban and black, one-direction were crap on the show, there run started to late and they did not have very similar band to fight against for best boyband that year.
the Muffins won, a boy band can win for sure if everything goes right for them having said that i'm not in any hurry to lay my ella green |
|
By:
JLS were the new four tops more like. Urban?
 |
|
By:
JLS were like the bloody Four Tops when they were on the show - not urban and like they are now at all.
|
|
By:
No, 1d had no competition
|
|
By:
LOL GB, no sign of your post when i typed mine honest
|
|
By:
You were right on the muffins winning bit, but that's only last year
|
|
By:
Can a boyband win? It all depends who the vote is against. I'm pretty sure the muffins won simply because of the limited alternatives available for a large percentage of viewers.
One might just as well argue that if Rebecca Ferguson can't win then neither can Ella, but is there a Matt Cardle around to beat her this year? |
|
By:
No, but there's a Rebecca Ferguson around to beat any boyband.
|
|
By:
They managed to sell LM to families, and just managed to avoid the Marcus win. Much more difficult to sell the ethos of 4 17 year old lads who just want to sh ag as many girls as possible before the records sales end
|
|
By:
Ella strikes me as a tad more mainstream than Bex
|
|
By:
Yes, true and 1D were better than UJ
|
|
By:
if all of the above is true we should all get along to ocean finance and then lump on Ella
|
|
By:
we already have, bar cider
