Another poll

u can do ur stupid polls all day long;its how sc reacts is the most important factor on the show;if u havnt worked that out lou u must be stupid

did any polls predict last year's result topgun? have you looked?

Charlie

Yes Joe was a mile in front in the Sun poll on the last weekend ................. and won it by a mile!

topgun further - why are you abusing Lou for pasting a DSPY poll? It is a valid poll, one member one vote. Presumably you don't like the results?

Maybe someone should phone up Graham Poll and ask his opinion.

if matt wins i shall have an incredibly joyful christmas

bardo

Me too and how I'll raise a glass to all the people I;ve blocked.  Ho ho ho! [;)]

Charlie

See what I mean.  I post a very fair comment let's be honest of which anyone else would if it were 'their' act but because it's me he's no doubt having a go at me again.  What have I done wrong this time?

Wagner wasn't far off leading their poll over the weekend and the previous week Paije led their poll

hmmmm

five leaves wouldn't you agree that when even the contrarians at dspy agree with the mainstream, let's say yougov or Tellymix http://xfactor.tellymix.co.uk/  you usually have a winner? Happened with Brian Dowling, in UBB for example..

Charlie

Can only guess at what Five leaves is saying obviously but if it were his favourite act polling well he'd be the first to splash it on here but because Matt has over double anyone's vote he's probably saying DS doesn't count because they're all kids or something.  He's just not man and honest enough to simply say 'yes it is an enormous lead and whilst it doesn't mean too much it's not a bad thing for Matt backers to see him so far clear!

Note:

If you are saying that Figgy in your response then apolgies.

I'd rather pick the last 5 out of a hat at random and it woul dbe more accurate than a DS poll. I don't know who posts on there (apart from BF forumites in drag [;)]) but they are so perversely unrepresentative as to be meaningless.

Lou take my advice and add them to your blocked list

Charlie,
It didn't happen with Vinnie.

I just think when we have a professionally conducted poll in the shape of the YouGov one, the DS poll becomes an irrelevance.

I wouldn't be using a DS poll to predict an election.
It's only of any use when there's nothing better about, which isn't the case this year.

..and 37% for Matt to Rebecca's 27%, in a poll taken after her worst performance, suggests to me we don't have a winner yet.
A very worthy favourite though.
He should probably be shorter. As should Rebecca  and the others longer. Much longer in 1D's case.

Have I missed a yougov poll fll?

I agree 100% re 1D; coincidentally just started a thread questioning this.

It was in the sun on saturday

Ah yes saw that. Thought yougov site would publish breakdown as they did previously.

Yougov have 48 hours under BPC guidelines to publish the full data after a poll being published  - didn't you find a link figgy or did I remember that wrong?

Here's the link with the top line (click the image). Trouble is figgy, the collection period before this weekend.

Rebecca had a bad Saturday - one boring "lift music" version of WOWOY and an Aretha type number where she missed all the lower register notes. Matt came out with his crap number but all people remember is Matt's Night in White Satin.

Here's the top line; Cher Lloyd more popular than One D;

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/x_factor/3248765/Wagner-X-Factor-plot-uncovered.html

The poll was taken after her low point, 'yesterday'.
I also thought she had a good weekend, especially her 2nd song.
Matt stole the show though.

Charlie

You're right about her singing flat on Saturday but I thought it was still better than her first song.  She's has about 10 attempts now though and not one 'wow' moment yet.  She was 2/1 about three weeks ago and is now 9/2 with three less runners n' riders.

I think I'll take a moment ...................................................

hmmm!

Five Leaves, she's been very inconsistent. She's been brilliant and she's been boring. I think Cardle is more consistent and that's what counts in final. I do agree though, that's she's his only challenger but I have to admit I gave up on her getting it right last weekend. As for 1D being shorter than her, its crazy. There's a Cowell-placed story in the sun today basically admitting defeat;

Why should fans vote for them if they get a deal anyway?

charlie if u r stupid enough to believe these polls then i pity you i really do;music industry is as corrupt as the uk government

hmmmmmmm!

Bet you used to watch Ally McBeal.

Barnaby

Spot On!

Loved it.  Such a shame they stopped it.  Funny one minute, sad the next, all having a sing and dance down at the bar.  Great stuff.  Wish they'd bring it back.

It was a genius programme.

The grown up version of Friends.

Got the full box set of every series.

Superb stuff.

Whatever the relative merits of the DS poll, it's nice to see 1d and mary combined struggling to match Cher's tally even at this stage.

Lol. Having said that, DS is a large aircraft hangar full of headcases, let's be honest.

Journey

Oh yes of course and it's only 600 votes let's be fair but I'd rather be winning that silly little poll of 600 votes if it were me obviously and Matt is by miles!  As you too point out it looks like Cher's going along quite nicely too.

Barnaby

Did they just stop it because ratings sliped?

Didn't like some of the storylines but the character's were great.  Got the 3 x CD's that are songs from the show by Vonda Shepherd and they're all goodies.  Smashing stuff.

I think it just ran its course Lou.

The last series was a pale im itation of earlier series.

Yes, the music by Vonda Sheppard was great stuff.

Loved all the guest appearances too by Bon Jovi, Elton John, Josh Groban etc etc.

Yer I used to love it.  Ally herself was hardly 'beautiful' but there was something very attractive about her.  A few of the girls on there very attractive.

J   can't really see that this years x factor forum can start throwing stones at any other forums like DS


It's been a shocker on here

Latest Poll update with now 700 votes cast.  As you can see it's still neck and neck at the top, ahem! (wink)
