Gamus out and I am left with Matt and I am happy with him at
10/1.

Now Simon is going to make sure he gets a run at the title. Also he has never had a group winner. Ok the obvious choice is the group he personally created.

The thing about groups is they have to have a group identity
this comes from a brotherly togetherness. You can judge for yourself if  FYD have got it.

What grouds have you for believing that a bunch of ego maniac narcisistic pretty boys thrown togther by Simon are going to be able to work togther never mind get that musketeers thing going.

They can sing they can dance.For these reason I have backed fyd at 34.

They are a band of brothers against the odds. They have got a story arch to travel up with Simon. Apparently he isn't even talking to them ATM. Excellent. Come on you crew of pirates.

aren't FYD a bunch of dancers who got together to form a group for the show anyway?

Hope this link works. Its on digital spy. Am I daft i can't find anything on this on Youtube.

It doesn't matter if they are a made up group. What matter is that they work together and look like they belong together.

Anyway note how at ease they are with each other and the rapport. Good team work.
This will transfer in the publics eye into that band of brothers thing I like and more important I think the girls will like. Note the girls heartbreak when "Take That" ect ect ect break up. And how they want bands back "together" Why? coz they love the happy gang of lads thing. And will vote for it.

awful, talentless, bland dirge - possible winners only if Simon's boys, One Direction, pull out due to artistic differences.

Hi Zoom.

Why does anyone think nude erection will "gel once the pressure of the live shows kicks in."

Why can't Liams backing group " fall apart". I have no reason to see them as "together" at all. Maybe they are. But its not a 6/1 shot that they will "gel". Not against 33/1 that FYD will not

We will have a better idea  by the second or third show when any dificulties in 1 direction will be apparent.

BTW we have also yet to se how good FYD are at dancing. Believe me if they are very good. 34 is a give away.

What makes you say that.  1 in 12 chance surely or do you know something?

the spoilers are claiming to be in the correct order with FYD first.

Fair enough we'll see.  Seen one or two 'spoilers' though that haven't been quite right over the years so I'll keep an open mind.

Oops sorry just seen my 'list'.

On first is fine at this stage. We know they are not being pushed. Far from it.

Interesting point.  Specially as these have hardly been mentioned by anyone and they don't seem to exactly have the 'wow' factor they could be in trouble.

Good observation, go to the top of the class.

Only not been B2 one year, although tbf with the quality of the acts involved there haven't been any shocks.

Oh dear. Has the curse of planet Melv struck again.

You will see tonight. I'm not watching I'll see later. Dark horse IMO.

Ok I am clearly alienated from reality. FYD seem to be the invisible group unless you are wearing Mevian space googles. But here's why I have a a very small top up at 100+.

There are several reason for putting FYD on at the beggining of such a long show.

1. Simon wants to get rid of them to clear the way for Liam and his beautiful backing singers.

2. Simon knows they can avoid getting knocked out and have the resilence to take the stress of outsider status.

3. He wants to keep them away from one direction to build the young lads confidence. Until later.

I thought they did OK surely there are enough females who like this sort of thing to keep them in for long enough to get noticed. (he types weakly) And if they get noticed Simon could have a battle of the bands going on which is good TV.

I will be laying FYD off at quite high odds becasue one direction are very pretty and can sing OK. They are a masssive threat to everyone. I think the only chance anyone else has got if that they fall apart. Actually I think New direction look ragged, untogether and totally artificial. The girls will never notice this in a billion years and if they did they will probably find it cute Awwwwwww. New direction will need to totally fall apart otherwise they are huge contenders.

So either Simon sacrifices these; to stop them them Scaring Liam and his babes; by putting them on first and giving them awful song coices teriible camera work etc. Or he allows a bit of dramatic tension to occur and I lay off my bad bet.

I hope Simon sees sense and realsies that dramatic tension gets phone calls.
But I think he wants boy band and I have fkd up.

Up until Mary, they'd been the best act Melv imo

Prices don't always match reality I guess.  Think they may have done just enough to progress
