I just started a thread that should have been added to this, sorry.
What are your figures based on mugptr? |

By:
Katie, Mary, 1D

copied this over from elsewhere
Very difficult this week. Much prefer it when there is a single elimination with the bottom two. Had a good series of predictions and getting decent odds, esp Aiden and Cher. With Matt looking likely to have a large portion of the vote, it's a bit of a scrap for the others. Cher and Wagner probably enough support to keep them from bottom. Maybe Katie's support to keep her out of the bottom last week is short lived like Rachel last year. If I had to call it. Katie first out. Mary and Cher sing off. Mary sings better than Cher. Louise and Dannii send Cher home. Cheryl and SCowell send Mary home. Deadlock - Mary goes. |

I think you're spot on with Katie, Squares. Last week was a temporary reprieve... I expect normal service to be resumed and the Weasel will be back in the danger zone this week, probably gone first. She simply hasn't got enough support.

henry - it was just based on the forum putting up 2 names,quite accurate last week.

katie bottom, mary loses out to cher in sing off (assuming there is one).

Bottom 3
Katie goes 1st with lowest votes sing off Mary Rebecca Rebecca is saved over Mary in sing off |
|
By:
Just some food for thought:-
At last 7 last year, the voting figures for the 7 remaining acts were:- Stacey 26% Joe 16% Danyl 16% Jedward 15% Olly 10% Lloyd 10% Jamie 8% Olly, the eventual runner up would've been in bottom 3 |

Interesting. Good stuff. |
|
By:
The previous year Alexandra Burke polled 4th bottom with 7 left and was 3rd bottom with 6 left a week later

By:
never count ur money till result is in OFFICIALY as previous years show shocks in store;watch matt drift over the next week and certain others shorten
|
|
By:
Yes interesting post grendel. Gives me hope for Rebecca who I now see as clear with Matt though as is obvious things can change quickly.
For me the most interesting % there is Jedward. Comfortably outside bottom 3. With more acts in this year wagner has had to swim against the tide of panel negativity further/harder to get this far. If anything I think the pro wagner momentum is growing plus his Creep came out well in terms of viewer polls so even on the none anti cowell measure he would do ok this week I think. 2/1 him to avoid bottom 3 looks value to me. |

Katie bottom
Cher and 1D in sing-off - cher goes. Purely on the basis that I think we're reaching that point in the show when the teen vote starts to get squeezed and the acts that get 97% of their votes from them start to struggle. Mary is still a bit of an unknown given that she hasn't actually hit the bottom 2 before and could be down there - but I can see her appeal with the older demographics that aren't well represented on twitter and there isn't much competition for votes with her sort of act. |
|
By:
Having said that, any combination of Mary / 1D / Rebecca / Cher in the sing-off wouldn't surprise me.
|
|
By:
I was just wondering whether those figures and the subsequent movements are so relevant with the situation we have this year with the 4 extra contestants and double eliminations.
Those 2 years, at the 7-act stage there were still 3 shows left to go before the final (final 3) whereas this year there is only one more weekend. And we're still unsure whether there will be 3 or 4 for the final weekend. Perhaps one of those in the industry could tell us!! |
|
By:
And, with this format, the judges' involvement has continued until a later stage. There are normally 3 weeks before the final with PV only.
|
|
By:
squares, my info is 4, and that the idea is for each to have an act in the final.
as of last week, even the production co wasn't 100 per cent sure of cowell's intentions. |
|
By:
Cher bottom. Weasel saved over Rebecca in sing off. Tantrums and tears before bedtime on forum.
|
|
By:
Cheers Nick. That has always made most sense to me.
I wasn't including you as a faux "insider" btw. |
|
By:
ha, no, thanks squares, i am not an insider but i have a small handle due to remaining contacts from the time when i was....
|
|
By:
but of course, everyone connected is so cagey these days, impossible to get anything of real import, which is why i am 99 per cent sure all voting leaks this year are a pile of c rap
|
|
By:
if voting leaks were genuine we'd have big brother eviction style favourites each week ... i.e. long odds on, but surprises have not materialised in betting movements
|

true dat

Tough one
Mary goes bottom Katie vs 1d Katie goes Can I make it the magnificent seven? |
|
By:
interesting gb, mary not katie bottom...on what grounds?
|
|
By:
Toss up I think, equal green on both nick
|
|
By:
yeah, i am double green on katie than mary, and i am thinking about putting mary profit on katie too. just really think she'll be bottom. should i, shouldnt i, that's the question...
|
|
By:
Wagner goes tonight. I'm heavily on him to go first, at half the odds I could have got if I'd waited
, with a cover bet on Mary 10th-out and a tenner on Waggy 11th.So Wagner 1st, s/o between Katie and Mary and it's goodbye Mary. But agree with FLL and GB that there's value backing OD for B3 but think it's a week too early to have any real hope of getting paid out. |
|
By:
So you have Cher in final othh?
|
|
By:
is that just your opinion or have you had wind of how they are doing in the voting ? It does seem as though they have thrown everything at getting Wagner out this week
|
|
By:
God knows who's in the final, George, formats of the semi finals and number of acts eliminated next week etc etc.
And fishloginman: just opinion. I think they've thrown the kitchen sink at getting rid of Wagner this week, right down to the faint praise. That's when you know they're getting serious! |
|
By:
I've taken what 2.62 365 would let me have on Waggy avoiding b3
But I do think it's interesting that it's a b3 and this was announced an hour after the lines opened |
|
By:
cheers othh
|
|
By:
Are we sure that there will be a sing off?
There's a rumour on the forums that it's just the B2 with the public who will get the chop. |
|
By:
Bottom 3, Mary, Katie and 1 of either Wagner or Rebecca
If Wagner has any type of support he could well avoid bottom 3 and that could mean a sing off between Katie and Rebecca. I wouldnt trust Cowell and his puppets to do the right thing so 40's about Rebecca for 11th elimination looks a value bet |
|
By:
jesus fig that throws a spanner

how would that effect tenth elim as well? how would they know who would be tenth????
