Tips for Tikay

Caroline slipped about four times in the first few bars. She was all over the place and even apologised to Pasha at the end (turn the Mic off, producers, if you're going to rig it).

Beyond a joke.

1.001 landed

Lol

That was the double on Caroline being overmarked with me tilt-posting about it, I assume?!



Interesting now whether Simon nails the waltzathon

[Tal]

Not in bad shape. Need Mark to get some votes

Yeah. Simon nap bottom two, three on 4 points got to be good if we want Mark to bounce.

Looks like Ben is the TCO

Fleur wasn't great, Lauren poor and Ben average.  Not bursting in talent.  Grunting man coming on.

Fear we have a Frankie/Mark bottom 2. 

Going a bit wrong.

That could have gone a lot worse.

Fleur rampathon.  Should have saved that for the final.  Now here is a fella with a beard wearing a jumper.

It's sad, but I did chuckle when Cowell asked him if he had eaten the dog.

Not worried who goes, but I'd prefer Andrea, so that we can watch stroppy spice go into meltdown.

Flip flop in our favour. 

Can't see Andrea going.  Lauren was nailed to the road under that bus.

surely Lauren in bottom 2, and who saves her over Andrea?(certain to go against other two)

.Louis no...and Simon, really dont think he will take it to deadlock.

taken the 8/11 no deadlock on Lads

No wonder Cheryl looked so uncomfortable for most of the evening...

Someone posted on Betfair that the only thing missing from Ben's VT, was Lauren hitting one of the children with a baseball bat

Yuh, perfect bet for thread I think. Sweat with Sergio.

Forget trying to dig the allotment, the ground's all frozen'n shit. Flick it in on Aguero instead. £20 for japes.

Just tried, they responded with japes of their own - I was Maxed at £0.50.

Thanks, but I think we'll have to manage without a 5 month sweat that would net £2.50.

Can get you £20 if you want it?

Very kind of you Neil, yes please.

Send me your Bank Deets, please, so I can settle you up.

BOOKED?

Yes.

Thanks Neil, £20 sent by Bank TX.

I gather no sooner the bet was placed, than our man suffered a knee ligament injury.

Japes indeed.

You still frequent that place, Marky?

Jeez, I've not been on there for about 10 years, but had occasion to do so earlier this week on a (sort of) work-related matter.

Yuk. It's the UK's 2+2. I'm sure that, just as with 2+2, in amongst all the dross & insults, there is some good stuff to be had, but I just can't be doing with all the personal stuff.

Saw this on Neil Channing's Twitter feed.

"Manchester United v Arsenal, 1926".

Wonderful photo.

Given it is a bit of a coin flip now and Andrea can still win, think we should be happy laying Fleur at 2.06 to win X factor now.   Maybe £100 is fine.  There doesn't appear to be much value in that price for a backer.  Taking in Chompy's Cowell bet think that will make us something like Andrea +£50, Ben +£250 and Fleur +£750.  We'd also be +£50 if Lauren wins too.

If it doesn't get taken don't worry, we don't need to lay, we have great bets even if we don't.  

Edit now 2/2.04, so go for 2.02
