Numerous bad ones. Worst is probably backing Steven Hunter? Anybody even remember who he is? I thought he would be Louis' wild-card, fulfilling the Wagner joke candidate role.

Remember the talk before the series started in earnest about why they changed the age limit for the olds (or who they might have changed it for)? Realised, when out walking this morning, Matt would have been in that category.

Definitely Squares - commented to my wife then that Matt was being set up as the winner even at that early stage... Anything to avoid the Louis kiss of death!

I layed Waggy at 144 which at the end of the day he went out but to think I could have waited and layed at 50's ............... let alone 8's!
I took £13 out of him at 144. Could have took about £250 nearly in hindsight. Aaah hindsight ........... a wonderful thing!

I backed Nicolo at 38 thinking he was in with a real shout so to go the first week was awful. I thought he had 'something' but yes perhaps the glasses didn't help.

I don't think backing Nicolo was anything shameful
He was throughly shafted by idiot Dannii. Could have kept us entertained for weeks with his dry wit, if not his singing, and grown a fan base. Storm on the other hand...
Neither did I think FYD were bad either

Never had a chance to lay them either so that really is a low point.
Initially got into a right mess really early with the mentor/category markets as they changed those originally planned, although did end up with decent odds Dannii/boys and groups didn't look too bad price wise for a lot of the series.

To be fair apart from Wagner I don't think any act was bad at all. I thought Treyc was the best singer of the girls and still do. She only lasted about 5 or 6 weeks though.
I thought Nicolo was a good singer but we never got teh chance to hear him ..... 1 week!

Backing Katie to be eliminated about five weeks in succession was not a high point. Eventually got it all back and then some though!
That's what made Storm so hilarious!Backing Katie to be eliminated about five weeks in succession was not a high point. Eventually got it all back and then some though!
Thought I had it sorted this year early doors, having backed Nicolo 12ish iirc and then Storm the following week...
Got greedy last week with Marygate and blew a small Xmas fortune on Cher to go

when she survived against trey c in the sing off....didn't lay off
fell for the Lucy-style sting when Katie forgot her words
a large bet on Katie to go when she survived against trey c in the sing off....didn't lay off fell for the Lucy-style sting when Katie forgot her words
