Blocking people

Be careful you don't end up talking to yourself though Lou

[;)]

Name and shame Lou

I hav'nt seen George Brush for weeks

I might Block Kitten on specials but there would be no threads left

stu

I saw your name but couldn't read your post!  (wink)

Hopefully it won't come to that though!

A1

Haven't heard from GeorgeBrush for a while come to think of it.  Oh well I'm sure he'll be back soon.  He better be it's his turn to pay for our next £2 bet on the footie!

Matt is a rubbish singer, womaniser and has been tainted by a drug arrest FFFFAAAACCCCTTTT!!!!

nap l.p n.b CAPS MAN lou?

I have so many people blocked my posts don't seem to show up anymore

It's a 'bigots paradise' Brushy!

George

I've even blocked myself!  Mind you if it was just me on here that I could talk to at least I'd know it would be 100% honesty.  With you lot you talk a touch lower than that when it comes to being totally fair and honest .................... about 1%.

Would slightly negate the need to actually be a member of a forum though Lou, just perhaps....sometimes I do wonder why you love this place so much!?

stu

Would be nice if everyone was honest though rather than just completely ignore the other acts and write them off totally.  For instance I THINK Matt will win and deserves to but amd I concerned about Rebecca, One D and cher of course I am and I realise that could all well win it.  But all everyone does on here is totally write off Matt because they can't bare to face the truth and be honest that he too could well win it.  In fact he's been favourite from day 1, seems to lead all the polls, is the only one to have had a standing ovation so far by all four judges.  Why can't they admit he's good and in with a real shout too?

LOU .we will have the last laugh lou ..matt wins cher secound im strongly advicing you to do forecast lou available at freddys @14s[;)]..limit a pony thou im giving them away as xmas presents...

I'll be happy enough if he wins it without doing forecasts!

Lou it seems you are a tad naive about both the nature of these singing shows, and the nature of betting forums!

But there's still enough decent discussion on here, regardless of the rubbish posted.

stu

Yes I thnk there is enough decent discussion and decent posters.  I can't satnd liars though and idiots just talking through their book.  Matt backers must be worried about Rebecca but Rebecca backers must also be worried about Matt.  Why can't they just be honest and admit it.

Well most people will always try to defend their viewpoint, especially when it comes to betting markets.

Fair enough but can't they just be honest?  Say Rebecca absolutely knocks em' dead tonight with her song I'll gladlly admit she did.  Why can't others do the same?  I sppose Matt was absolutely awful, the worst performance ever on the X Factor when he did 'First Time Ever'?  Take my point?

Yes, but ultimately this isn't a singing discussion forum however much we might pretend it is, it's a betting forum.

But supposing they'd backed a horse atht was tailed off at the back halfway round.  Why can't they then admit surely they've done their dough?  Every one on here (me excluded) would say things like "I still think he can make up that two fence deficit" and "all i need is 15 fallers".  You get te point stu.

There's another simple answer to your questions lou - a lot on here will also trade their positions, so they are hardly likely to post anything that counters it in that case, as it might cost them money.

So they lie for their own good then?

I think lying is a little strong - but possibly don't reveal all their thoughts for sure.

Lying is the word stu!

When's Rebecca's price dropping by the way?  She appears to be going backwards!

You wont get the Rebecca fans pointing out that Paije has more followers than her on twitter

A1

Has he though .................... not a good sign if so.

hmmmmmmmm

give it time...generous layers around that's all. [;)]

haha

I'll give you that stu. (wink)

yep lou

rebecca has 18k  paije has 21k


Matt has 76k

Not exactly mind blowing but rebecca fans wont be highlighting it

Doesn't mean that they are liars

A1

Noy a plus for her.  they'd be the first to highlight it though if it were Matt with 18k

I think I'm going to take a moment



















hmmmm

Continually making comparisons with betting on shows like this and betting on football matches and horse races is simply not comparing like with like.

And with regards to the 16.54 scenario, situations similar to this happen pretty regularly - it's how people are able to back 999/1 winners.

I have Matt as a green, but I only think he is average, if he blows me away I will hold my hand up, but he has had as many average/bad as good. Thought they went overboard last week, best for a while but you would think he had a instant number 1 the way they were going on. He could well win and has a good chance, just not my cup of tea and overated imo, but it's not my vote and he will be kept a green. If we all thought the same we would all own the same record collection.

Cher is my only big red left and you have to be concerned, just think her lack of likeability will cost her.

Spot on RL

Lou, no-one with any credibility on here has said Matt cannot win - what are you talking about?

Layprofessional did

Oh I see your point

bunny

They all write him off and jump on every tiny thing about him in the press.  "Matt seen picking his nose" "Matt seen with a hole in his sock" "Matt caught leaving the top off the boy's toothapaste" "Matt found kissing one of the backing dancers" type of thing.  So what?  It's a singing competition, any one against him must be very worried but will they admit it and be honest ...................... no chance.

They all write him off and jump on every tiny thing about him in the press.

Lou, you're doing it again, making sweeping generalisations which are simply groundless.  Who is this 'all' you refer to?  Can you name three sensible forummites who have written Matt off?   

Even figgy who hates Matt as much as anyone and is very happy to post links explaining his reasons respects his chances and has him green. Why should anyone be worried anyway?  If they thought he was a danger they could back him and reverse out of their position.  What's the big deal?

Bunny,

He has no friends in the real world so comes on here to have some sort of interaction with people but because he is an obnoxious, self important and pompous retard then he manages to fall out with half the people on here.

He berates anyone who says anything negative about Matt but aligns himself and agrees with CrabPatties who just does what he accuses other people of doing to Matt to Rebacca.

A very silly and lonely man, my sympathies are actually with him.

Cavalry's here

if you go our for 5-6 hours and then catch up on this forum it is a sobering experience.

without doubt,this is the poorest specials campaign i can ever remember

post after post by the same people dribbling on

All shytting themselves about this good thing matt.  "On the distance, who'll finish second to this good thing"
