Not sure the camp leader vote is altogether relevant; his position in the market was based on the theory that Brexiteers would turn up nearer the business end but, last night, they weren`t lined up and ready yet, unorganised, unmotivated, probably unaware, not even watching. Not helpful to his chances, but not as fatal as the market thinks

Nobody had a vote that was organised and prepared last night.  Level playing field on which he lost

Who knows how many supporters he has, or how many of those will be voting but, if it was a valid theory when he was 7.x, it still is at 26, so one that needs to be factored in. I keep changing my mind, have had him both decent green and max red numerous times, but, at these prices he`s a definite green
Report armagnac November 27, 2023 11:35 PM GMT
At these prices i see a trade if thats the boat you wanna sail, but winning can't happen. He would get annihilated in the H2H
is 3rd place up for grabs, yes it is..so based on that its not the worse trade attempt at the current prices, he'd probably halve in price if he made the top 3. then halve again in the H2H probably, seems like a lot of hassle
may as well dutch top two and guarantee half a point

He has no route to victory from the viewers(see camp leader vote), he would need an external campaign to get flag sh@ggers to down load the app and vote in the correct windows as people leave, this is never going to happen, top 5 is his best result and that is only because we have a camp of dullards!
Report armagnac November 28, 2023 10:36 AM GMT
The ratings drop and anger he's being edited out will work in your favour, a trade is not out of the realms of reality but i think the kitchen sink is going to be thrown in Sam's direction for the next week or so.
Report stu November 28, 2023 11:18 AM GMT
Better as a Top 3 train, if the theory about his 'support' is true - he might make it to top 3. Even then it's a guess.

Farage voters don't watch this.

It's bizarre his price moves with edits.

Tommy Robinson getting arrested has more
influence on your chances than Sam being camp

I wish you the best Kitten but does anybody really want to hear him rant on the hypocrisy of "cultural appropriation"? And I even agree with him btw. He has all his political platforms for that, which most IAC viewers probably sensibly avoid, and watch RTV instead. He said he was going to let people see the "real me". Unfortunately the real him is one dimensional.

The original forum was a rolling one and not in the format it is now.
Every sport was posting at the same time on one page and it was completely chaotic.
You'd have say a Merseyside Derby on, Cheltenham festival, a golf major etc. all fighting for the same bit of space.

A page would drop off in about ten minutes!

When it was divided into categories it was still very new and people getting to understand the exchange as well as it was something completely different to us using the firms.

The forum was a novelty but it did become part of my daily betting routine to check in for various sports opinions and one still doing what that 23 years later.

The further he goes, the more the belief TK..reds will panic, public will jump on...the rest is field of sheep.
needs to escape the fake b2 tonight.

They hate saying the same person twice usually in quick succession, they did do it with babba last year though. he was b2 two days in a row and on the 3rd day voted out. now this is extremely rare in recent years, the last time that happened was fleur east, who got a b2 on the 4th and 6th elims. the year before it happened to venessa white, so for 4 years between 2019 and 2022 it never happened.

i think josie was called b2 last night coz they had already called marv and dani b2 and didn't want to make one b2 again.
so for me tonight either marv or dani will go say its dani for arguments sake, there is a strong chance it won't be josie b2 two night running even if she is in the b2, and im guessing they won't want to say marv again. that means they will say one of the others. either tony, sam or nige.
they will probably not want to say nige in all fairness coz that will motivate his army even more, which means it could be a fake sam or tony shout if they don't want to say marv again.

The one thing missing from the Farage train

A couple of notable comments from the Telegraph (before yesterday's show) I thought. I definitely see this as an opportunity to reflect our discontentment and contempt for the utterly spineless people in HoC right now. Even the Guardian are publishing long opinion pieces about him on the show. All bile and vicious, obviously. But also angry at itv for providing him with a platform to be successfully humanised.

1 DAY AGO
I do hope Nigel gets to the final two. Not too bothered about him winning though. I think many of us, frustrated by our useless government and voting system have enjoyed casting our proxy votes for Nigel to be King of the Jungle. But let's be honest, the show is ridiculously childish – and it seems fitting that baby-man Sam should win it – not a serious politician. But great if he comes second – it would still make the point well enough-- that Nigel has a substantial loyal following among the British public and is a force to be reckoned with. And, of course, the ensuing Twitter storm would be a delight to behold.

Clive Richardson
1 DAY AGO
I even installed the app on my 93yr old mum's phone (at her insistence of course) and gave Farage another five votes.
I'm fed up with soft luvvies endlessly telling everyone how "nice" we have to be, let's have a bit of actual national reality on prime time telly for once.
Humes impressed me, the girls have been...well, girly, and Sam Thompson just makes you want to punch him (of course, I wouldn't).
Farage will certainly make the final three, as for winning, who knows?
I can't help thinking ITV now realise this is the worst £1.5M they ever spent, clearly they wanted to destroy Farage politically but it's backfired spectacularly.
