Just would like to have somewhere to keep track of my bets so far, while gathering any opinions/tips.
I know i shouldn't watch this tripe but i can't help myself!
Lost an early bet i placed on jade as she didn't make it through and lost another small wager on joe cox, so pretty meh start so far.
-3 points odd.
This year really does look wide open, i've a feeling we could get a surprise/diff type of winner with all the new judges.
Apparently the twist this year doesn't involve bringing back any acts like jade that just missed out, so i think it's very important to wait for that b4 betting large at all. Any ideas what it is?
Also nobody massively stands out for me, and in that case i'd rather speculate on larger priced outsiders for now.
So i've placed the following bets for the moment:
1pt win James Michael@25-1 - Not really sure why he's such a large price, has talent and could adapt well to this format.
0.5pt win@50-1/0.5pt top 3@10-1-
Sami Brookes- Really didn't understand why she didn't originally make the top 4 anyway, and the nutter pulling out could see her thrive.
0.5pt win Kitty Brookes first overs eliminated@8-1- Crap britney lookalike and average singer who has issues, yawn. 9's available-man i hate being restricted.
Am half tempted to back
2 Shoes@66s, and prob wld if i cld get each way at the price, think public will like them, and they seem like they can actually sing.
One bet i really wanted to get on was
rhythmix first group eliminated@11-4 with 365-but mbn to get a bet on with them, 30p mr kay, yeah yba. I don't get this group at all.
It's def a real tricky year so mainly keeping powder dry.
As for the rest here's my thoughts so far.
Girls-Feeling janet, amelia are too short at the moment, one is vickers x 2 and the other just doesn't seem hugely likeable. Misha could be a possibilty and was tempted at 11-1 but that's gone now.
Boys- don't seem all that strong either with frankie-smoke and mirrors imo, craig looking a bit too ummm craig and marcus prob won't get enough overall support.
Overs-Johnny robinson-novelty for a while then will annoy, Jonjo-bar sobby type story he wldnt be within 100 miles of the studio.
Groups-Nu Vibe-def a one direction type band-prob will go weeks in without winning, the risk-think the lead singer is great but not sure of the group as a whole-weird decision from the fit judge.
Thoughts from all appreciated-in before-omg wtf is all this about, does any1 watch thisi/give a damn about this anymore???
Well 12 million odd lemmings do unforts, actually agree with prev statement!
