No, it's a new story in tomorrows mirror.
It#s nice that he feels Katie is deemed worthy of her place because she 'looks good' |
|
By:
I agree though that it's old news that the guy is total knobend.
He won't win. |
|
By:
Hmmmm I think his stupendous polling suggests he will win.
|
|
By:
Figgy obviously VERY worried. Who wouldn't be if you're not with the stand out talent on the show who also just happens to have been the favourite from the start, still is and leads just about every single poll we hear of and by a long way too!
I think I'll take a moment ................... hmmmm |
|
By:
Hmmm, I beg to differ.
Rule 1 of reality TV betting - ****s never win. |
|
By:
VERY worried. Don't worry Figgy you can still get on at 2/1.
Come racing! |

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
There's only one poll that matters Lou and it's certainly not the DS one. |
|
By:
Figgy
What one is it then and why only that specific poll? |
|
By:
It's the poll in the final of actual votes.
None of the others matter. Well not until they show Rebecca leading anyway ;) |
|
By:
Thought they might then!
|
|
By:
It's only a matter time Lou.
Bail out now before it's too late. |
|
By:
You REALLY think that.
I asked a good question this morning ..... well I thought it was a good question. If you had one jackpot ticket going on to the last leg to win a million or nothing if you don't pick the final winner. Who honestly would that ticket go on. Mine would honestly go on Matt. All bets aside I'd place my ticket on him. You Figgy? |
|
By:
Figgy I’m more than twice as green on Rebecca, I also personally adore her singing. But lets be realistic. Matt has been miles ahead in every single poll including serious ones such as Yougov, ICM Research and the much smaller but worthy Survation. It's a different pattern from last year.
Something will have to change. His moaning to the press won’t change anything. Rebecca has to up her game. Those who criticise her for not moving and being samey are right in the context of the XF competition. |

That's refreshing to hear someone else who seems honest. Would you like to be my 2nd in command (wink) |
|
By:
We mustn't ever crystalise our views Lou, it's all subject to change. |
|
By:
Lou - Rebecca.
Henry, yes he went into the live shows was a large lead over everyone, but every poll shows that lead is reducing. Look at the differnce between the youguv poll and the ICM one 2 weeks later. Also the trend on DS is Rebecca climbing. Matt losing support. As for Rebecca not moving, it's only an issue if Cowell decides it's an issue. At the moment he shows no sign of doing so. All the signs that I'm seeing suggests he wants her to win. |

Figgy
You didn't answer mt 'last jackpot ticket' scenario question. I know you're an honest chap so wondered wht you would do? |
|
By:
Oh I see sorry just realised your post.
|
|
By:
Lou - Rebecca.
|
|
By:
Figgy
Fair enough |
|
By:
Rebecca had gained slightly on Matt between the two polls but his percentage had also increased a lot.
I'm sure Cowell wants her to win. I think she has more future potential for him. And he will probably try to push her and knobble Matt. Whether that is enough to defeat Matt's female admirer hordes I don't know. |

What makes you think Rebecca has more future potential than Matt? Both decent singers but whereas Matt has nothing specific against him, Rebecca has the fact she's a young unmarried Mum with two kids so has her obligations there, is another black/mixed race singer the same as that have already won this competition two years ago and four years ago and she's got that horrible speaking voice. If I had to apply some logic with Matt having none of the minuses I've mentioned above out of the two I'd say Cowell would prefer him to win it. What makes you say he'd prefer rebecca? |

By:
matt is a plank;average voice unless he sings falsetto which being honest bores the t i t s off me personally;cheryl just has to get off her gorgeous a rse and help rebecca more with song choices a little AND ITS GAMEOVER TOTALLY ITS THAT SIMPLE;SHE IS AS I KNOW COWELLS CHOSEN ONE DOESNT MEAN HE WONT CHANGE HIS MIND IF THEY GET LAZY WIYH CHOICES

Both have great vocal control but Rebecca has something more. In her songs she’s reminded me of the greats who originally sang the song, and yet she’s distinctive, if you hear her sing without seeing her you can recognise her voice. From that dance track we can see that she’s capable of something else quite different. I’ve listened to all Matt’s many songs and haven’t felt the desire to listen again. Seven Summers, his band, have all their stuff available for download, he’s getting more publicity now than he ever will and yet his music has hardly taken off. (Compare that with Eurovision’s Lena who made number one download in 3 countries before the finals had even started).
Matt’s performed proficiently, probably near his peak, but Rebecca’s nowhere near her peak. It’s not long to go now and Cole is a cretin (who was given 4 excellent women and has let them all down) but can you imagine if Rebecca got the confidence she needs – held a stare at the audience, sang to them, put her shoulders back and together, strode easily and elegantly about the stage? Make my year if she won. |

There you go, Lay says the same, and yes Cheryl is at least beautiful and sweet with a gorgeous arse.

Her kids are an advantage. They can easily be taken care of (I don't mean that in the Al Pacino way) and they mean she won't have the void that so many modern childless career women have.

Yes I agree she could do better with a better 'performance' and may well win it but she's had about 6 attempts so far and you must admit bar the very first week they have all been a bit samey. I would also say Matt's performed better than 'proficiently'. The 'First time ever' was a knockout surely and I thought he did very well with the Britney song too. Opinions eh. |

By:
first time ever was class but agree with henry ive never felt the need to playback his performances;rebecca and cher[not mad about her] i have

By:
lay
But that's you. I wouldn't play Rebecca's songs so doesn't that cancel it out? |

lou its all about opinions but being truthful now;im trying to help people on here make money and thats the honest truth

Lou everything isn't black and white, you should try exploring the wonderful world of grey! Just because Matt has a great voice doesn't make him a wonderful human being, and it doesn't mean that he will win if SC doesn't want him too.
My current HONEST view is that Matt has had one extraordinary week, one great week and every other week has shown flashes of brilliance but have been in some way flawed. I think the repertoire of songs that are available to him is limited compared with Rebecca, and I think his confidence is much more fragile than hers. Rebecca's support has been built slowly and steadily on very solid foundations, and there is no sign or any fragility in her performances. I feel that Matt's support is superficial compared with Rebecca's because it came so easily and it could be taken away just as easily if he starts to fade through a crisis of confidence or poor song choices. If I were a big Matt backer I would befinitely be more nervous going into a show wondering which Matt was gonna turn up than I am as a Rebecca backer. My current position is that I'm green on the front three and massive red on the field. I will probably shuffle my green around as things unfold, but right now Matt is very much my smallest green of the three. Whilst he could easily win I don't feel that he is the chosen one and I see far more signs of momentum from Rebecca and 1D than him. If I feel this has changed and things are looking good for Matt I will have no problem in backing him. |

I'm with you bunnyman, in an open competition it doesn't pay to peak too early and current votes are not that important. Imo Rebecca has a lot more to come and is not as one dimensional as some may think. Somebody posted this on the forum earlier http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bE1qOxGsSU and whether or not you like the music, Rebecca's vocals are amazing. It only remains for Cheryl Cole to put a bit of variety into her song choices and I reckon she'll blow the grovelling Matt Cardle away.
