I wouldn't mind getting out at 1.6 but that's asking an awful lot.  Even IF he makes the final 2 he might not even be that.

From last years voting figures

So all the stuff on here about Danyl be ultra unpopular and yet for that week at least he was a mile in front.  Interesting.

I actually only think there's two acts who CAN POSSIBLY beat him so I'll let it run for a while yet.  I'm on at 9/2 and haven't bailed out at all so fingers crossed.

a few thoughts

helmuthian is actually an insightful guy lou - dont be so petty as to add him to your growing persona non gratis list

he made a point which is that, whenever anyone posts about matt, you will be on within seconds with your pro matt spiel. it's true, it is a little wearing, whether its ramping or just enthusiasm

lou - i like you but stop blowing your trumpet - all this - maybe they're just jealous because i get one pick every year and i get it right' baloney - leave that childish tripe to the kindergarten. you're better than that

interesting point about whether matt can maintain his position - wouldnt be the biggest journey ever seen on x factor but signs are he has the best voice as well as being likeable, a potent combination. matt, rebecca and boyband nailed on for final, imo.

what gets me about all these matt haters just spewing utter drivel is they can't back it up by laying him.i put as much money as i had in my bank on week 1 and i wish i'd had more to put on him.back your comments by laying him if he's such a bad bet........yet his price is still solid at 2.8........cmon grow some balls and lay him!!!

not a hater not a layer just recognise talent when i see it and in my eyes this guy lacks any outstanding talent and is non marketable

The reason I answer a lot of posts is that i have the time on my hands and I'm bored to be honest.  I have no kids, only work as a rule at the weekend so have nothing much to do.  I enjoy joining in and saying my bit. 

I can't suddenly change my stance.  I DO think Matt is the best, I DO think ONE D are very overpriced. I DO think Wagner is absolutely dreadful etc etc.  So when I see somone talking about that I'll respond.  As I said often out of pure boredom.

fair enough lou  was only a minor gripe 

you've got to stand up for the interesting posters squire[;)]

evryone i've spoke to at work say he's got the best voice.i havn't heard one person say he's cocky or lacking charisma....all i get from people is that he's nice and has a good voice and sings the songs well.granted this only amounts to about 20 people but within those 20 people are a good cross section of young and old/male and female.

i've said on another thread that if he doesn't sell one record after the x-factor that it won't bother me in the slightest because i'm only interested in making money from my bet.

saying that i think he's got real potential and will make a decent living whatever the outcome.don't kid ourselves here and think that any act will survive more than 5 years,and thats being ultra optomistic (bar the odd one) or will conquer the world, it is after all when you take away the surface make up a piece of throw away tv.as long as they last around 2 years simon and the tv producers will be happy.

the only worry on form would be Ben in Leona's year.

He hit around 2.2 in weeks 3/4

really looked a dial a distance job....then lost his voice one week,fell out with Osbourne,got slated in the press,
Leona nailed "Summertime" and then met with a fate no man should have to deal with

polling less votes than Ray Quinn in a singing contest [:(]

Maybe he's after the slap head vote?

Looks like he's going to do a Ward/Lewis and go pillar to post. More to come. Definitely not peaked too soon as is too good and versatile to go away. Will be the runaway leader come the end.
